On this matter I tend to disagree with Enzo C. that it is impossible to prepare for Joe Calzaghe. Lacy tested his talents against Joe - but he shold have been busier trying to make small changes too this style. Also adapt versatility troughout a fight. Changing lanes. Doing things differently than what you have been doing 95% of the time. Kessler wont win if he doesnt fight different than what he did against Beyer. Im pretty ****in sure he knows this. The Andrade fight showed how Kessler also can throw 6 punch combos from the inside. Add that to his dominant right cross (both counter and lead) and his intelligence and stamina. Kessler has no chance in hell.
Astola, are you worried Kessler loses? And there is only 1 way to defeat Joe Calzaghe at his very best focus and preparation, and MK does not have the necessary intangibles like Jones did to do it.
No - Im not worried.... Im trying too make a point here. The Calzaghe hype (about this fight) is getting close to what the Lacy hype where. I think its a 50/50 fight and get utterly disgusted by people who doesnt recognize what Ive seen in Kessler. I agree that Joe has a huge advantage by intial stance and hometown advantage - but I fail too see how many of you can be so cocky about the outcome. MK is CLEARLY the best fighter Joe has ever faced.... MK has hardly ever lost a round. MK is an intelligent fighter who indeed adapts to his opponents. MK is the one fighter in the history of Calzaghes career that can beat him on the outside. Besides these facts - Kessler is extremely talented and posess one of the best jabs, 1-2's and straight rights today. But still - I cant wait for this fight to begin....I will own some Blocky after the fight:deal
