All boxing fans, and the USA specifically, were robbed of the rightful savior of the Heavyweight division, the great white hope and the great American heavyweight of the 2000s. :deal Look at the paper I'm pointing at.
To bad he got that brain damage. But come on? He would not have a chance in the ring with either guys. be realistic.
Klits too big, Can't see Joe beat either brother. Against the "Normal" sized HW's tho? Sucks we never got to see Mesi's career continue.
I remember when Mesi was the WBC #1 rated fighter when Vitali Klitschko was champ the first time around. Thankful that fight never happened it would have been a brutal beating.
Great White hope? New flash! The great white hope has been reaized under the name of KLITSCHKO!!!:happy
I think he whoops Hayes ass. He already has experience at beating untested overrated former cruiserweights.
Haye would stop Mesi, Adamek would beat Mesi, Wlad would toy with Mesi. Vitali. Thats all I have to say on that one, Vitali. Hell, Im not even sure Mesi would beat Valuev, Peter, Chagaev, Povetkin or Chambers. Just all my opinion, but I never saw what others seemed to see in Mesi. Decent fighter with a good punch, nothing more, nothing less. He was never champion material though in my opinion.
or Haye for that matter. :dead But Joe was a good local attraction in Buffalo... and a great guy just the same.
