    just more evidence to support my theory that Kellerman is a giant douchebag!

    Max is just a puppet of the American media and their anti-Calzaghe conspiracy.

    we should compare judges' scoring to the prediction.

    Which was to say Calzaghe was way out of Kessler's league. But he wasn't.

    People: The actual scoring was
    117-111
    116-112
    116-112
    http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/boxing/7077373.stm

    THis guy's prediction was
    117-111
    116-112
    116-112

    Spot on! Identical.

    Kudos to the OP.
    Is he still here?!

    Edit:
    yesihavearm, the OP stopped posting in 2008. Sad, what a prediction.

    That's sad if true, his OP was rational and wise, and his prediction was perfect for all 3 judges. How often does that happen?
    Anybody know?

    If Kessler won 2 more rounds the fight would have been a draw - and that in Wales...

    The scoring after 11 was the same as in the Ward fight on my card but without the cheating. Kessler has won round 12 in every big fight he's had. Great post though.

    Just shows how long the anti Calzaghe brigade have been around.

    The scores were fair though. I had 117-111 against a much more active Kessler before any lay-offs and without a huge cut unlike the one Ward fought. Kessler was ducked by Bute at the time and was not KO'd by Andrade like Bute was.

    San Rafael - No. This was a great post and he actually had score cards which were the same as the judges and tottally fair. Great prediction looking back.

    IIRC, Yesihavearm was Amsterdam's alt. He got booted years ago. Spot on prediction on this one, but he had his fair share of misses too (Mijares jumps to mind immediately).
