    The superimposed video idea wouldn't work. We'll only really find out when they're in the ring together.

    Great fight vs Mitchell... to think that Calzaghe is much better these days is scary.

    "The superimposed video idea wouldn't work."

    May I ask: Why?

    I think you missed something like ......"....because..."...... Come again.

    ......"....because..."...... the said boxers react to what's in front of them and don't stand there shadow boxing in the ring. You cannot guarentee the opponent is standing the same distance away in both videos. Also, how do you account for speed of thought or a change of punch? The style of the opposition they are facing also determines how often they could throw punches. It just wouldn't work for some of these reasons and more. I thought this was obvious.

    Why don't you just face the facts? It still looks pathetic when the nuthuggers shy away from it. Let's have a look and see what comes out of it. That's another reason for liking this 2-round clip with JC.

    Erm.... I'd rather watch the fight and find out. If you want to do it and post it on youtube, I'll have a look... all yours.

    Great fight. Love the way Calzaghe looks really focused and ready to go to war, when he gets up.

    I hope to see Kessler knock him down, almost just to see how he reacts. A lot of heart and pride. Kessler never guns for the kill though, and I think he can handle a wounded Calzaghe.

    That was some fight. No doubt JC slaters will say it was against a man years past his peak. Mitchell was a hell of a tough nut.
