Re: Just another one of Wacko's Drunken Round by Rounds : Calzaghe vs Kessler
I'd like to see Pavlik stick around 160 for awhile longer, but more and more it seems like he's getting pushed into moving up. There's a rematch with Taylor at a catchweight lingering around, and if that falls through, I bet HBO puts the pressure on to fight the Calzaghe/Kessler winner.
Let the man enjoy his title, and give him room to decide if he wants to defend at 160. There's still good work to be done there, and decent money.

Here's the link...& the results...what do you think?
The winner between Calzaghe and Kessler on November 3rd walks away the undisputed champ -- who's next?
Jermain Taylor 6%
Jones-Trinidad winner 18%
Bernard Hopkins 23%
Kelly Pavlik 49%
An Undefeated Contender: Carl Froch, Lucien Bute or Dennis Inkin 4%
I can only see either of them fighting Pavlik as a megafight ...the Jones-Trinidad winner, and Hopkins, don't really want anything to do with Calzaghe let alone a young guy like Kessler should he win.

Hopkins is on the record several times stating he wants to fight the winner.

I reckon Hopkins is the most likely of those to actually fight Calzaghe, cause he's all about the huge money fights these days. Pavlik will likely stay in middleweight for a while, and Bute wouldn't be a big enough name I think. Jones and Trinidad wouldn't be interested in getting an ass whupping, and I reckon Froch and Inkin wouldn't be big enough names either.

Hopkins is a shoe in for the winner Calzaghe fight.
;D
I totally disagree with HBO's results...or HBO's members.
I think that a Pavlik fight should not even be discussed...much less majority ruled on.
What kills me is that no one is giving RJJ or Tito a shot in hell if they were to get into the ring with Calzaghe (or Kessler) & I personally think that a RJJ match up would be fun to watch.
Not sure what cred it would bring to Joe (or Kessler) but it would be a fun fight none the less. Also...oddly enough...RJJ was being thrown around as a potential fight for Kess sometime last year...so you have to wonder if they aren't lookin in that direction.
Agreed that Bute, Froch, & Inkin aren't big enough names either.

The sig is good, but I think Saddo should restrict your access to bold and larger size fonts. ;)

Re: Just another one of Wacko's Drunken Round by Rounds : Calzaghe vs Kessler
Cannot wait for this fight! Should be awesome. I still think JC will win,I would not be surprised if Kess won. I'd like JC to win though,for his legacy. Kess can bounce back from a loss,I don't think JC would.
Re: Just another one of Wacko's Drunken Round by Rounds : Calzaghe vs Kessler
Fellas,fellas...FELLAS........... As a site grafter i just gotta let you all know that I AM SOOOOOOOO UP FOR THIS FIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Forget Hatton...Joe's top boy.
His record is incredible and he's got the skills to match O0
Nuff said!
Really is there for the taking this one,who wants it most and i got a feeling Joe does and at 35 this would cement him as a hall of famer beyond any doubt!
Cannot wait for next weekend!!!

:coolclick: #782. Totally 100%...you are a site grafter ;D & this is the fight of the year for me...outside of Taylor vs Pavlik. I've had my fingers crossed for so long on this one that I thought I'd have to learn how to type all over!!! Heh heh heh. Seriously, I've been excited ever since HBO put the word out. It get's worse & worse each passing day!!!

Totally agree there too. Hatton's never been on the page for me...Joe's always been in the book. Joe's underratted & what's worse...he's sorely underappreciated.

Now...here's where we might disagree...I'm not sure that Joe wants it the most...Kess seems pretty determined.
I hate the fact that both men have to lose. Actually...I'd love to see a hard fought draw.

NOOO!! Not the D-word!
Bring on the unification! I'm with you though - two guys willing to lay it all on the line like this, you hate to see one lose. Fighters with cojones like these two are what boxing's all about.

And........... Ladies and Gentlemen is why Wack is a bit of a Don round here!
We're rowing the same boat my old mukka!! O0
This really does intruige me this one and i've personally waited and waited for these two to tear it up!!!
Massive in my life this one and i've MADE the new missus smash come back from her Birthday celebrations in good time ;D ;D ;D ;D
Enjoy the fights from now till Xmas people because true fight fans are in for a f*ckin banquet (esp us Brits) ;)

Can they give Hopkins the astronomical amount of money he wants to get in the ring with Calzaghe? I doubt it. Hopkins has never really wanted to fight him.
Plus the fight would have to happen in the States and I don't believe Calzaghe is bothered about fighting in the States even if he says different, so no fight.
Hope i'm wrong though. Ive always thought Calzaghe would muller Hopkins.. although have changed my mind of late :-\

It's all good..... Lot's of people here have made good comments about it.
What a coin-inky dinky that the 2 gay round by round posters are the only 2 with negative comments.
It's probably cause you 2 are stuck with youy gay round by round signatures..... ;D
