Calzaghe is the only Great fighter at 168 right now and no one will beat him there...at 175 that's different but you still have to factor in Lacy and Green those guys won't just go away because they have been beaten or in Green's case just have a lack of defense.
Lyle...this is just blatant unchecked hatred. Honestly, I'd have expected more from a guy wearing a sombrero. ;D

You do the research Lyle...that's how you know. You watch his fights & you make a judgement on more than one or two showings.
Kessler will do just fine after Joe is gone...but Calzaghe will put a hurting on Mikkell...that's just that...but there is nothing wrong with that...there's nothing wrong with not being able to beat the best out there.
It's just a fact of life.
Kessler is a good fighter & he's impressive enough not to deserve all this scorn youv'e developed over some idiotic posters account of him.

Well said Wacko...Kessler is as good as those that have seen him fight think he is. The upcoming bout against Beyer will be a chance for Kessler to get more people who havent yet seen him sit up and take some notice.
I dont think he is good enough to beat Calzaghe at the moment, but he has the goods to beat pretty much anyone else out there...
I would love to see Kessler against Lacy...great chance for Lacy to try and get on the map again and a great chance for Kessler to make the US sit up and take notice....

Lyle does seem a little like Cartman off South Park at times...always seems to have a spleen to vent!!
Can be very funny though!! ;D

Do you remember the word association game? You could play it with Lyle, but boxer association, and at least 75% of those answers that he came out with would be vicious criticism, and a high swearing percentage ;)

Thanks babe. :coolclick:
I believe that Kessler is worthy of the number two spot in the division...as worthy as Lacy was...& no matter what any haters say...Lacy was worthy.
There is no shame in losing to the top dog, IWO. Lacy gave it his all & his all just wasn't enough to topple a man that's ruled the division the last 5 years or better.
That's just how I look at things in boxing.
Kessler will shine if he is given the chance. I think that HBO should invest in the kid. He's a good chap & he's marketable from the floor up.
The fact that he's Danish shouldn't really make a fwock. The kid's got talent & he can pop & he's public friendly...that's good for the sport & better for the fans.
I'd love to see him run the show after Joe leaves & I honestly believe that he could do it...I'd just like for him to polish up on his defense a bit.

By no means is he good enough to beat Joe...most everyone else...yes.

I too would have loved to have seen Lacy vs Kessler. Right now...I honestly feel that it'd be the wrong fight for Lacy though.
Lacy needs to fight somebody...ANYBODY...& soon.
Once Kessler comes stateside...people will take notice & I truly believe that he'll garner a shitload of fans with his power first style. The gents got a hell of a jab & an even heavier right hand.
Re: Mikkel Kessler Vs Marcus Beyer
MANY a fighter have started off successfully only to end up on their asses!
Mikkel Kessler and Joe Calzaghe aside...the 168 division is not the best for building a reputation as a good fighter at this time. Mainly because there are not that many stepping stones to get past to get title shots or maybe there are so many stepping stones we never can tell who's good and who isn't?
Everyone and their mama thought Lacy was ready for Joe....now everyone and their mama thinks Kessler is ready for the big time...who can say?
Kessler hasn't been tested, Lacy wasn't tested....sure Kess should blast Beyer out but I'm looking towards the future here not the Beyer fight.
Re: Mikkel Kessler Vs Marcus Beyer
Kessler is ranked higher than Carl Froch and Green (who I haven't seen).
At fightnews.com he is number 2 in the fightnews rankings.
He will beat bayer!
IMHO
Re: Mikkel Kessler Vs Marcus Beyer
how bout we just do a last minute switch-a-roo here and switch Beyer with Joe C. Who's with me on this one??????
Re: Mikkel Kessler Vs Marcus Beyer
YES!
Calzaghe a southpaw with power....yup, he'd beat up on Kessler
Re: Mikkel Kessler Vs Marcus Beyer
...Is Beyer the first southpaw Mikkel has fought?
I hope so!

Hey Wacko3205
If you dont know it,you can see Kessler vs Beyer on main event
And Main Event will show Kessler Vs Beyer
http://www.mainevent.com.au/event.asp?id=302
Re: Mikkel Kessler Vs Marcus Beyer
Re: Mikkel Kessler Vs Marcus Beyer
Well hopefully Beyer can throw a wrench in his plans for World Domination of 168.
I understand Kessler is a decent fighter but I can't stand the guy....sorry I just don't like him
However it is good he's finally fighting a pretty good fighter, it should tell us SOMETHING about Kess
Re: Mikkel Kessler Vs Marcus Beyer
Joe C can be beat'en nearing the end of his carer (he picked his opponants well).
Kessler will rule the heavyweight division.
And maybe Carl Froch will just be another contender.
:lickish:
