Kessler knocks out Rodriguez

Spiderman SD Batman :yep

 

I will have to disagree on this one...

On a more serious note. The Kessler Calzaghe fight analysis has me baffled. I just can't think of a way for Kessler to defend himself against Calzaghes use of angles. I sure hope he's got a solid gameplan... :bbb

 

I don't think it'll be a toe to toe trading fight. Kessler will be moving in and out. Left and right. Kessler has beatiful ring generalship.
Calzaghe is a genius of angles and movement so I don't see it like this. When Kessler gets hit he moves left, right or backwards, so if he is to win, he'll need to move around.
I think it'll be difficult for Kessler to win on points, Calzaghe throws alot of punches and he is fighting in his own backyard...
But it might not go to the cards. Kessler has unbeliveble accuracy, and if he can land some of those early on, it might be over before the 5 round.
Calzaghe can take a punch but I'm not sure if he can take the power punches Kessler should try to land in the early rounds.
Kessler needs to have fast hand and feet if he is to win.
I'm looking forward to seeing how his jab works. Kessler is ambidextrous, so the left against southpaw Joe will be interesting. Beyer's face looked like a pizza after 3 rounds. And Kessler pretty much just used his left throughout those rounds. Mixing it a bit with the right.

Many "if's" will be answered november the 4.

 

looking for weaknesses that aren't there now huh? you danish boys are getting awfully nervous now :yep your boy wanted this fight, and calzaghe is gonna bring a whoopin on him.

calzaghe has a quality chin. watch the first round of lacy-calzaghe. towards the end of the first round lacy catches calzaghe with a beautiful right hook. calzaghe stands there and returns fire with a vicious combo to the head, bouncing lacy all over the place.

if we were going down the route of who's chin has been more tested out of these two, then it would be your boy losing that one.

 

Have you seen any the fights Calzaghe had before he faced Lacy?

 

Batman is an overhyped bum! I mean seriously who has he beat? He is only good at fighting lowlife tomato cans.

 

ya grasping at straws here mate. calzaghe's chin is solid. end of discussion.

 

It has already been mentioned, but the Mitchell fight gives a good answer your previous question about whether Calzaghe recovers quickly or not.

 

veeerrryyyy solid. he's been knocked down twice in his career, got up the first time to smash mitchell out in the same round. the other time he got up and cruised past salem, knocking him down in the 12th.

it's an absurd point, but hey, here's another for ya, kesslers jab is ****!

 

Mitchell was not the most skilled, but he was a 1 punch KO hitter, when he caught guys right, he put them done or had them on the way out, Calzaghe was only down for 3 seconds and recovered fast.

Against Salem, broken hand, comes into the consideration because of the concentration on the pain in the hands. A lot of guys with good chins have broken or sprained something and later got dropped partially because of this reason.

Took some of Lacy's bombs and didn't blink. Proven solid chin.
