Maybe. It always becomes a little scary when Joe actually says he wants a fight. The same happened with Lacy - as long as Joe was mute or saying nah..... Lacy and his fans were cocky and hapy. When Joe said "ok, let's get it on - I'm looking forward to it". The fans became a little worried. Kessler fans may get a little worried too - especially of course when the fight is actually signed. Just saw the Beyer fight again - Damn Kessler looked slow!! More powerful, but I am worried if he lost some speed, because speed will be very necessary against Joe. Kessler's speed is actually often underrated as he is very fast, but against Beyer he looked slow but powerful. He has said somethign about training speed for Calzaghe and bla bla.. Let's all hope that it is in the training.
It is time to start hyping Mikkel (which is valid hype). The yanks are vunerable right now, all they have are Holyfield McCall, Grant, Morrison, Mercer and Kimbo to get excited about.
My good man, have you not seen me hyping him and defending him? I have even become a cemented fan of MK.:good
He looked quick and powerful against that undefeated Marciano guy last time out, though he was able to set himself like he was working a heavybag so it probably doesn't count.
Kessler will lose because of styles and intangibles, but as I have always said, he beats anyone from the 160-175 crop EXCEPT for Calzaghe and Dawson, due to the speed to max equal skill in all of their respective styles.... Speed and swarming makes Kessler tentative, this is the worst thing to be against a ferocious boxer-swarmer throwing 70+ punches a round in blinding combinations. BUT, I of course recognise that Kessler has a good chance and I am looking forward to the fight. If Kessler won, I wouldn't be sad, because I am a fan. The fact that he would brutally break down and tactically take apart everyone from 160-175 except for two P4P level speedsters, shows Kessler inherrant quality as a top level pugilist.
It is arguably, in pure boxing terms the biggest fight of all time where both fighters are in their optimum divison.
Yes, he did look faster against Andrade. But have a look at the Beyer fight again. He moves like a bull dozer in that fight. Slow and like Gun-Jack from Tekken. He will need more speed training for Calzaghe.
Good basics but Kessler shows no Inside fighting, doesn't take well to pressure and Calzaghe Is cosmic compared to Andrade. Kessler basically just steps In and jabs then out, or the same but with straights In combinations or the odd hook. He covers ups for defence or when pressured, doesn't do much else there. Good footwork and good at straights but overrated as a threat to Calzaghe, not overrated as a fighter though.
Harsh! Do you think it is possible for Joe to beat Mikkel to the jab? Imagine watching the fight and seeing Joe do that in round one.
Well nonbrainwashed people like myself don't like the fact that the quoran states that I should be killed as a "curropter of the world". Same goes for people who want out from the cult. I am not a ****in Dhimmie nor do I respect sharia, as I find it barbarian and cruel. How on earth can anybody demand respect from people they threaten with death and submission. Anyway I am deadsure there are some christians that feel just as offended as muslims would be, but their grief are just not as important as the muslims, hence my call for equal right to offend . Muslim papers are full of evil and offending stuff dwarfing what they complain about. The only reason China wont use Muhammed is the fact that somebody just might kill him for the offense. I don't think the american boxing parnass will issue a fatwa against China for this way of "hurting their feelings". When speaking on ESB impact on the real world in this threa(t)d, I come to shiver from discomfort of the real worlds impact on writesr in the forum. China. I am sure that nobody here would want to mess with the lunatics and have to live in hiding with policeprotection for expressing your views. Hell, most people have their feelings hurt in here. It part of freedom of expression. But none of us have yet killed another esb writer or uttered a credible threat that might frighten another to curb or suppres his opinions. It is actually a sad day, being reminded of the way our hardfought civil rights are being subjected to the rules of the dark ages of threaths and dead. This is also a kind of terror. Sadly, I actually feel my response are relevant and in line with the topic discussed in this threa(t). But if Blocky can claim 75 % opposition i here I can claim 1.3 billion in opposition to me. I am probably also a minority on this forum. Which is sad.
But there are less than a handfull of muslims who post here, it would simply be inefficient use of avatar space.
:yep :rofl Hear,hear..... I feel peace and tranquility transcending my soul, knowing in my heart, that fear of bodily harm wasen't the real motivator for your dicriminating behavior. Hence you sound judgement and efficiency prevailed. But have you considered the potential influx, or cyberimmigration ESB could generate if you had a more avatarspace available, and a fake IP adress.
