Why Calzaghe will beat Kessler

Are you all there in the head? Your not making sense. Im defending RJJ as being the best boxer in the past decade and i have an avatar of Mundine and you think thats bias to RJJ so your not talking to me? WTF? you have an avatar of joe and you keep talking him up. If anyone should be given the silence treatment, i should not be talking to you.

 

Well, considering Blockys way of debating im an angel.

Just tired of all the non-boxing related hate and manipulation coming from the guy.

 

:think :think :good

 

this from the guy who said that Calzaghe is p4p better than SRR. atsch

 

btw - anybody know where to find Calzaghe-Veit II???

 

I have never stated that as a fact. I have however pointed out SRR would lose to Calzageh at 168, something there should be little doubt about.

 

I might as well come clean. I bet $50 on Calzaghe about a month ago. At the time he was underdog at the bookies and I am a valuebetter.

$50 is not much in relation to my pot so if odds change I might very well hedge.

Even fight imo.

 

yep - I've done the same thing with the Danish national soccerteam - come fightday you can't loose - either your man wins or you win a lot of money

 

(a) I still don't see how comparing resumes helps either guy's case here; (b) Kessler's resume in the past 4 years is as good as Calzaghe's, if not better. I still lean Calzaghe, but it has nothing to do with their resumes. To me, Andrade, Beyer, Lucas, Mundine, Siaca, Green, Cummings and a couple of cans is more impressive than Lacy, Mitchell, Bika, Ashira, Veit and a couple of cans.

I can understand a style argument for why one would beat the other, but it seems fruitless to compare resumes, especially when (a) Kessler has never fought a fighter like Calzaghe, (b) Calzaghe hasn't fought a fighter as well-rounded as Kessler since he started having hand problems and (c) they've never faced any common opponents.

 

Calzaghe has never fought anyone like Kessler. Kessler has never fought anyone like Calzaghe.

 

Typical optimist's view.

You can't win mate, your teams loses or you lose money.

I understand why your brain does it though, a defensive mechanism. Manfredo fans developed into optimists before he fought Joe too.

 

has nothing to do with "defensive mechanisms" ... I'm just positiv from nature

As for this fight - I exspect everybody to win - this is a fight on level that we seldom see - this is the RJJ-Tiger - the Calzaghe-Ottke and so on - the fights that everybody wants, but we very seldom get because of politics and money. If this fights comes through - then we are all winners...

Although after the fight Kessler-fans will be some what more winners :yep

 

Don't compare Kessler to Ottke! Ottke would have been totally outclassed, Kessler won't. The fight would have been a pointless exercise.

 

Reid was nothing like a standup boxer.

 

spot on
