Well done Kess you hit the 168 mark spot on....
That means you didn't over train and lost tooo much weight.
Calzaghe seems to be in mean condition. Calzaghe is gonna win this.
I was a bit morose after the Pac: Barrera fight. But im now well up for this one. BRING IT!!!!
i'm gald hopefully Kessler can pull this off!! BTW are there any weight in pics?
Kessler was overweight I thought it was Galzaghe that struggled for the weight. Galzaghe to win.
Here you go mike...Quote:

Both look great....can this fight get any better
thanks Seanie for the info and Mick for the pics
i got to admit both fighters look in top shape hard to pick a winner but i'm gonna have to pick Kessler
Both look in tremendous shape! Kessler looks massive!!
That shot of Kessler was in closer focus.Quote:

This is gonna be something for the ages.
Yeah they both look good to go, but Kess seems thicker, a bit fuller. That must suck for Kess to have to walk into that stadium with , what, 50,000 or something?? I'll love to see the crowd reaction if Kess k.o.'s Joe. ;DQuote:

Watching the video just now, Calzaghe is clearly winning the mind games. Kessler is out of his league.
where's the video?Quote:

Enjoy ;)
CC, miles.
Kessler did look a bit nervous when they faced off. I didn't think that when I saw yesterdays press conference
Kessler is nervous as hell ;DQuote:

One of the finest boxers to have ever walked the planet. Kessler will be dealt with appropriately.
JC has been in this position before,Kess hasn't. I think Joe's experience could be a huge factor in this fight. I respect both fighters but I REALLY want JC to win. If he loses,he'll be hounded!!!
If you aren't nervous about a fight this big reguardless of who you are and where you've been then something is wrong.
CC#80 Mar very well said.Quote:

It's only human to be nervous.
Mar going a off the subject here. How devasted were you on MNF?
Im getting a bit tired of reading how big and thick that Kessler is looking, he is taller than Joe but the same weight ::**
He is skinnier and runtier than Joe, when he fough Lacy it was all gay remarks like this "look how massive Lacy is" It gets a bit tiresome when the boxers best attributes compared to Joe are how appealing to queers he is ;D
He didnt make weight he has a hurt hand and he will be shiiting himself in front of at least 50,000 Calzaghe fans, oh and hes fighting Calzaghe ;)
gr8 news and even better vid ;D
I agree, i think Calzaghe has looked quite drained at recent weigh ins especially the Manfredo one, Kessler is alot younger and obvioulsy makes the weight a bit easier. But Calzaghe looked in great shape.Quote:

Not that it means anything... LOOK at what Lacy looked like compared to Joe.
Is all I said was Kess looked a little thicker, not that his bigger biceps would win him the fight, lol.

To make matters worse as he stands face to face with Calzaghe waiting for the pictures of staredown to be snapped he catches a glimpse of the judges walking out the side door with brief cases given to them as "Welcome Gifts" ;) ;) and Frank warren scooping up the trail of $100 bills behind them.
I would be a bit nervous myself
you forgot the bit where the boogie man jumps out of Kesslers cuboard but Kess can't hide under the bed because there's a monster there.
Then Santa Claus comes and saves him.
Kessler didnt look nervous he looked a little annoyed after Joe tried to rub his package on him, what was that?

They both looked in good shape though, and its got to be a good sign for Joe that he made the weight so comfortably.
Oh geeezusss i'm gonna go through so many tv's being a kings and bronco fan this year. I'm not too upset overall this year just seems like a race to get blown up by the pats anyway...but damn that was brutal, but at least it was farve someone i hate but respect.Quote:

But that's the other thing that excites me about this fight the exposure for both here in the states will be well deserved finally. I have about 20 or so people coming over so i hope they get a good show.
