    Hopefully someone will be there with a camera on the Dannish fans' faces as the events unfold.

    WOW...Kessler taking all the early money at the moment

    I still go with Calzaghe... after the Lacy beatdown, how can you back against him.

    Before the Lacy fight, not a lot of people would have said Kessler was a better opponent than Lacy.

    sorry i didn't realise this was the calzaghe-kessler predictions thread, sounds more like prime roy jones jr-peter manfredo.

    calzaghe becoming hilariously underrated round these parts again, i wonder how many of the danish boys will show their faces again on here after calzaghe has boxed rings round kessler?

    All of what you say here ... could be true. I definitely agree with most of the tactics you think Joe should and will use.

    However, many of the same things could have been said about Duran-Hearns. Hearns is not a good inside fighter and Duran is one of the toughest and since he is stronger than Hearns, Hearns will not be able to keep Duran on the outside...

    Now not all is the same of course. Joe uses different tools to get on the inside than did Duran - and that may be a crucial difference.

    The point is that it is easy to plan something, but sometimes reality turns out totally different.

    Very hard to predict when you've got 2 of your faves fighting...

    I think stamina, consistency, and the jab would be the key here. In this case, I have to go with the Dane by either SD or UD in a close, even controversial dec.

    As you can see, Kessler is the clear favorite: 41 to 31, it is close call but he must be the favorite :deal !
