Kessler/Calzaghe

Again? And again? And again?

:yep

Are you not goddam tired of this topic?
:roll: :think

 

Calzaghe has been floored several times coming in swarming, you'll pay a high price for doing that against Kessler. And Calzaghe has to do something otherwise Kesslers great jab will control the fight. I'll bet on a quick fight, Kessler TKO5

 

Does anyone know how many times Calzaghe's been knocked down and was it a flash knock down or legit? As of right now, i'm still undecided about the fight, it feels like a coin toss. Does anyone else agree?

 

A fella asks a sensible question & this is the quality of reply........atsch
From what I have seen of Kessler he is a very good boxer..........& I mean boxer...........Seems strong too but I cant comment on his chin as I dont know whether it has been really tested..........As Mexican said he seems very accomplished at dealing with orthodox fight tactics thrown at him but JC brings a whole new element to the fight..........Constant pressure ...flurries of punches & bags of stamina.........Im not going to say something as stupid as JC wins easily because Kessler to me seems like a very tough opponent & the only real challenge to Joe at this weight..............I think its going to be an intriguing contest but I think JC's speed & experience could prove to be the deciding factor...........Joe isnt the type of fighter who will be dictated to by someone with a good jab & Im sure Kessler knows this & has more to his armoury than just a jab...............Really looking forward to it as it has the makings of a true world class fight.............Also the atmosphere should be electric & the place will be rocking in an enviroment that only brit fight fans can produce..........:good

 

I'm quite critical of Joe , not his skill but record, however to be fair I look at Kesslers record and I havent seen him fight but I dont see anybody of the calibre of Calzaghe. From what I hear though he's the best challenger out there and he's strong so lets hope for a great fight.

 

From memory twice. Against Saleem and Mitchell.

He took them both well, good shots but pretty much a flash KD.

Yeah there certainly a lot of debate about it. Im going with Joe via decision, too good for young Kess.

 

Against Saleem it was very bad defence..

I think Kessler is going to win on better defence and harder punches (I think Calzaghe will get cut by kesslers jab/right)..:hippy

Kessler TKO 9

 

Why not just read the other 1000 threads on the Kessler V Joe subject around here.

 

Calzaghe, by UD.

Kessler is a better boxer than Lacey (and obviously less of a hype job), but Calzaghe's intense workrate and speed will prove too much. Oh and that slap accusation won't help Kesslers 'cause one jot.

 

Here is the Mitchell knock down, at 2:29-2:34 - fine recovery though.

And here is also some Kessler material.

Kessler late TKO or UD 116-112 (in that range).
Kessler hasn't shown his full potential yet...

 

JC UD. I think this is another level for both fighters - I wouldn't be surprised if either one were found out.

 

....i think joe will surprise y'all and win a wide ud......too fast, too skillfull....been there way too many times to throw it all away......

 

I can see all sorts of outcome on this figth, thats why it's so exiting.
My money will be on Kessler thou.

 

Kessler is good boxer and Calzaghe is too old now. Kessler should be able to outwork Joe and could even stop him late.
