Joe did what great champions do - he found a way to win.

After 6 rounds I thought Kessler looked the stronger and as a Calzaghe fan, was fearful as I thought Kessler was starting to command the ring too much.

However, he got into the trenches with Kessler for a couple of rounds to earn his respect and then jabbed (as I was shouting at him to do from the sofa) brilliantly to keep Kessler out of rhythm.

Kessler was reasonably hurt in the 8th, as much as Calzaghe was in the 4th, but Joe did hit on the back of the head and the ref had to intervene, stopping Joe's only chance to end it inside the distance.

Kessler was very strong, but it was his first time fighting someone of Joe's quality and it began to tell in the later rounds as he got arm weary. But he'll be back, a very decent man and a good boxer, he was quicker than I'd have thought.

Good post.

When the ref pulled Joe off of Kessler I was infuriated.
