    Eubank was 10 years ago.

    Joe's last 5 fights has had lesser opponents than Kessler, please don't insist on them being more accomplished than kesslers.

    Anyway Kessler has utterly destroyed his opponents, save Mundine on hometurf and possible due to a back injury. Joe's been struggeling much more to get his wins.

    Kessler is consistenly well performing. Focused and sharp. He is the boxer, the younger and the stronger.

    But I love Joe. Reading his comments on Mundine made me smile and laugh for minutes, on and on.

    Maybe Joe does not talk trash (umhff) but somehow he humiliated Mundine just a bit ? Don't you think Pride ?

    Anyway, he talks like a champ and he will be the best ticket seller ever. Thats whats makes him lovable. Arrogant *****...If I have to eat **** nov4 then so be it. I always bet against my man, just to lessen the pain....

    Unless Calzaghe gets old overnight, expect him to win a decision. His movement and handspeed should be too much for Kessler.

    Look at the 33 second mark of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_eFM5...related&search= - Joe touches his nose. Everyone knows that this means he would lose to Evans Ashira in a rematch.

    No it isnt.

    Joe has been looking like a piece of **** since the Lacy fight, meanwhile Kessler has looked better and better everytime he has stepped up over the last three years or so. That fact combined with the exciting stylistic matchup makes the fight the more interesting.:deal

    Joe also looked **** against Robin Reid, David Starie etc etc and those were fights were years ago when he should have been around his peak. I would ignore the post Lacy fights. Joe wasn't up for either of them, you could tell that especially for Bika, he just assumed he would walk through him, the motivation wasn't there. Joe will be up for this bout.

    ZZZzzz Hi Blocky...

    Don't trash talk Kessler opposition, when JCs 20 defence reign is so full of handpickings, and very limited fighters.

    Nonetheless, both are way above what they have fought thus far, and that makes resumes irrelevant.

    I really hope that JC won't get trashed after he loses to Kessler, because regardless of his relative weak opposition, he is a great fighter.

    Or question his sanity. But let him continue - after 3rd of November, he has lost the last remanants of his credibility, and we will find him behind a new alternate name, if at all.

    Maybe you should get reading comprehension and think before you post, mate. I never claimed that any of the fights were tomato cans, much less all of them.

    Kessler has fought those that were the highest ranked boxers, if they are pitiful average, then thats the way of the division. Difference is, that JC have had 10 years as a champion to fight big fights, and move it up. Of course title fights should (at least appear) to be better than build-ups.

    Nonetheless, JC has struggled in this "pitiful average" division in many fights, Kessler has never, and he has, as I said, fought those that are at the top at the respective time of the fights. However, none of this will matter on fight night.

    As I tried to get across is, that anyone with boxing knowledge knows that these two are the top dogs of the division as it is, and it doesn't matter in that perspective, that their resume is average.

    Look at one of the latest interviews on youtube with Calzaghe.

    Joe Calzaghe himself says that he has never fought anyone as good as Kessler. End of story and discussion.

    He also says that Kessler has never fought anyone as good as him.

    I agree with both of Joe's statements.
