And it is good to see there are no trash-talk ;D
Re: CALZAGHE AND KESSLER IN CARDIFF
kessler is spot on.
calzaghe doesnt really sit down on his punches, and his opponents make it easy for him by standing in front of him. im glad to hear he wont be doing these things, cos this is what usually wins joey the fights.
only problem is kessler comin to cardiff one week b4. either one day b4 or 2 weeks b5 due to ur body gettin used to the weather, the water etc

Well Kessler is only coming from Denmark which is like about an hour on a plane so not much of a big deal.
Calzaghe has problesm with fighters who like to wait and counter, who are basically spoilers. From what i have seen Kessler likes to mix it up and is willing to trade and stand in the pocket and the only movement i have seen is going backwards, unless he changes his tactics or style, i think Calzaghe will beat him.

Re: CALZAGHE AND KESSLER IN CARDIFF
The reason joe dont sit down on his punches anymore is due to the consistent hand problems and the fact that he cannot risk hurting them anymore as his next hand injury could be his last. This may work against him in the Kessler fight as Kessler will probably fight at a slower pace than calzaghe would desire and make it hard for joe to counter. A solution to this problem would obviously be for joe to load his punches and force Kessler to retreat, but can he do that? The Lacy Fight suggests he still can, but fights against Ashira and Manfredo testify to the contrary.
I want Joe to win, but itl be a mystery until fight night i think
Re: CALZAGHE AND KESSLER IN CARDIFF
Is that Kessler or Ben Affleck in that interview?
Re: CALZAGHE AND KESSLER IN CARDIFF
Kessler is extremely able in all he does, but nothing strikes me as exceptional. If Calzaghe is at his best then Kessler will be out of his depth.
Calzaghe is quicker, is able to fight inside and outside effectively and has fought much better opponents.
Calzaghe UD.

None of these guys are anywhere near Kessler in skills Eubank was unorthdox and was shot Reid was tough and and aggressive fighter not really skillful fighter and Lacy was just power puncher with no defence Miles said Calzaghe has fought better opponents than Kessler i don't mean comparing there records Skel i mean who has Calzaghe fought anywhere near the skill level of Kessler ??
Re: CALZAGHE AND KESSLER IN CARDIFF
Man I am so excited for this fight. Just completely pumped. THose guys are both top notch world class nice guys. Hell you wish there didn't have to be a loser. This fight is at the right time........guys that dont trash talk at all sound/seem much tougher to me than guys like Shannon Briggs or Paulie and then get in the ring and stink up the place.
As nice as these guys are about there opponents I think there is a real feeling that this fight could go either way.
