Kessler Vs Calzaghe Poll Who Will Win
Right lets have good old debate on who will win and how
Re: Kessler Vs Calzaghe Poll Who Will Win
I am going with Kessler by decision. Calzaghe struggled with Bika and Evans Ashira. Mikkel will destroy him. I know people will bring up the lacy fight but lacy had a bodybuilder physique and that kind of physique doesnot neccesariliy mean unbelievable power but Kessler can bang and box. Should be a great fight, unless Calzage pretends to injure 'injures' his hand again.

thats bit unfair to bring up Evans Ashira fight considering he was one handed he broke his hand and could only use 1 hand thats unfair imo he didn't fight his normal fight against Bika and fought stupid i voted Calzaghe by close decision if he doesn't break his hands
Re: Kessler Vs Calzaghe Poll Who Will Win
Calzaghe out lands and boxes kessler to a decision. A close fight, but Kessler has never fought someone with the speed and movement of Calzaghe. As good as Kessler is he would only win by an element of luck.
Kessler would learn a lesson and come back a better fighter...
Re: Kessler Vs Calzaghe Poll Who Will Win
I have to go with Kessler by ko or tko don't think Joe can beat this kid the Lacy fight did'nt prove nothing to me the Bika fight proved more it proved he still was'nt fantastic and that Lacy made him look great

In certain respects this really could be the career defining fight....a whole band are on with Kessler now. If Joe can raise his game again and show us a clinic!!!
Well, everyone would say that Kessler was still green!! :-\
Re: Kessler Vs Calzaghe Poll Who Will Win
If Joe beat Kessler i would give him the credit due to him Kessler is'nt green so i personally would'nt say that
Re: Kessler Vs Calzaghe Poll Who Will Win
Kessler is not able to lose on decision against any from 160-175. Hard statement but I am 100% sure about it.
I go for Kessler TKO late.

You're kidding. Lacy brought buckets of power- let's not rewrite history. He also always has had great stamina. Kessler would not do as well as Lacy, he would get whupped even worse. If he's lucky, Kessler loses by UD.

I don't think that's really the case. Noone here, with the exception of Royal, are riding the Kessler bandwagon because of his nationality. Which I hate to say was the case largely with Jeff Lacy. Not to say he wasn't a good fighter. But if he wasn't American he would not have had the hype. People are hyping Kessler now because we know he's class, simple as imo. I don't see how anyone could say a guy with 2 world titles and 40+ fights is green... People didn't even really say that about Lacy, who was much more green than Kessler in the pro ranks, not to mention much less talented. Kessler would be a great win for Calzaghe.

Didn't say Lacy was better than Kessler. Stylistically, I don't think Kessler would do as well as Lacy. Calzaghe is much too fast for Kessler and Kessler doesn't have as much power as Lacy--and one thing in Lacy's favor, he was awesome at mixing up his punches and finishing, all of which had to have been somewhere in Calzaghe's mind--Kessler might be more talented, but less of a threat than Lacy, thereby giving Calzaghe even more confidence to dismantle him.
More than anything, I was refuting the assertion that Kessler has more power than Lacy and that Lacy only had a bodybuilder's physique.
Re: Kessler Vs Calzaghe Poll Who Will Win
As much as I want to see Kessler win, and reemphasize he has well past earned the right to fight Calzaghe. At this point Calzaghe still wins by UD. Once JC shows signs of slowing down, then Kessler all the way. As time goes on though Kessler gains the advantages, particularly with Calzaghe's hand problems. This would be a very exciting match, let's see what we can do to make it happen.
Maybe we need to all write Frank Warren. Or start a petition or summat.

Why should Calzaghe's handspeed be a problem for Kessler? There are not much between them in speed and Mundine is even quicker than Calzaghe, and Kessler did well to handle his speed
