I'm picking joe for a UD or late TKO... Kessler won't be able to hit him and his only defence is blocking or moving out of range... Joe's footwork and punching style aren't gonna allow Kesslers 1 dimensional style to be effective.
TKO?
Why? Kessler has never been hurt so.....?

thats the reason the smashup is the most respected analyst on saddo.Kessler's style is made for joe,although i would say that every now and then a fighter produces a performance and fights in a style noone thought possible.but its joe on points for me (unless his hands are fixed by magic,then its tko 8/9
That's exactly how i see it Ad,kessler is so predictable with his 1-2 left hook style that i think Joe skills will be way to much fo him and he'll just pepper his face at will.
Joe can also fight well inside which Kessler can't ;)

Nor had Ashira, Bika and Salem.... - Calzaghe is not anymore a banger.
Re: Who wins and how , Calzaghe v Kessler..
Will Calzaghe fight Froch if he wins ?

Idoubt it, Calzaghe's said that he only wants the huge fights now, and I don't think that Froch has the star name quality of a Hopkins, Dawson, or even Clinton Woods. I'd be surprised if he chooses to go that route, although I'm sure Warren would like the chance to sign Froch up to some sort of contract for his future fights.
Re: Who wins and how , Calzaghe v Kessler..
I have to go with Kessler on this....( I am actually going with my mind on this one not my heart like the prediction contest)....
I think Calzaghe is going to underestimate him...IMO Joe actually thinks he will blast him out like Lacey or Manfredo....
Kessler is preparing himself for Clazaghes puitty pat attacks that seem to come in whirlwind combo's...Kessler is not an overrated HYpe machine based on KO's of no name or past prime fighters..
He knows he is coming into hostile territory and he needs to be dominate to expect a decision in any way.....
The key is going to be that overhand right of Mikkels...One of the best in the business IMO...It is thrown in an awkward angle that is hard to defend against....
It has nothing to do with my opinion of Calzaghe just the fact he is over confident and the fact he truly believes this is a walk in the park...Team Calzaghe is looking past Mikkel and using this as a showcase fight....That will be their downfall
[youtube=425,350]BjdK3A14KGo[/youtube]
Yes That right hand will be the factor if Calzaghe sleeps on it
Re: Who wins and how , Calzaghe v Kessler..
Calzaghe is in a different league to Kessler imo. He will win on points by UD. ;D
Re: Who wins and how , Calzaghe v Kessler..
No way Team Calzaghe will 'look past' Kessler mate and his Father Enzo will have Joe training harder than he ever has before for this fight.
This is THE unification fight Joe has always wanted so what could he possibly looking at in the future that would diminish his chances against Kessler.
Make no mistake Dax....Joe will be in the shape of his life for this,his dad will make double sure of that factor.
Re: Who wins and how , Calzaghe v Kessler..
Yeah like funk are they taking Kessler lightly.
Calzaghe commented on himself being the UNDERDOG the otherday. Says it all.

Training and being in shape are not mindset though....I am not saying Calzaghe is not coming into this fight ready...I just think he feels it will be an easy bout for him....Just my opp...truth is we won't know until fight night ;)
