Lets us get it on,i will love to see a rematch
No chance Joe does not do re-matches
What could happen differently in a rematch? I like Kessler, I was cheering for him, but the fight was only really competitive in the early rounds. Calzaghe took Kesslers best shots, adapted, and dominated the later rounds, even visibly hurting Kessler, en route to a clear UD.
calzaghe would just be covering old ground again, if he dont retire i would prefer him to face BCD
Well Kessler had problems throwing shots, much like Roy and B-hop, but his hand was hurt if I remember. He needs to look impressive against a big name IMO to deserve a rematch.
He should have tried to earn a rematch a long time ago by taking on a Taylor or Lacy instead of fighting for an alphabet title and going into mediocrity.
I'm not one for rematches either but Kessler came on in the last round and won it. If only he would have put it into overdrive in round 8 or 9.

You can only expend so much during one bout. Not that it's anywhere near that simple... it's not just a case of who's putting the most effort in.Quote:

Truth is that Joe was able to let his foot off the gas and simply not get knocked out in the 12th, guaranteeing a win.
I really don't see the point of a rematch at this point in Joe Calzaghe's career. I thought Joe Calzaghe won pretty comfortably 8-4 or 9-3. Once Joe Calzaghe adjusted after the 4th round it was all Joe Calzaghe, and Mikkel Kessler looked very dishearten.
I like Mikkel Kessler and this was a good win for Joe Calzaghe, but Mikkel Kessler has done nothing to warrant a rematch. He had chances to fight fighters like Edison Miranda ETC. But decided to waste this whole year fighting nobodies.
not horrible choice i think kessler learn alot in that fight
be more fired up to fight him

If Kessler was American there would probably be a unanimous cry for a rematch and most US media would see it as a robbery (although the rest of the world would still see it as close but no robbery at all). Now, some American fans even try to make the Hopkins fight seem close eventhough that wasn;t nearly as competitive
there is no way that kessler vs calzaghe was a closer fight than when he fought bhop. maybe a rematch would be different but the first fight Joe beat kessler up and down the ring. and for the record kessler doesnt even deserve a rematch if anything he should fight Taylor and he might not even get past him.Quote:

I would rather see the Hopkins rematch TBH....Both men fough horrible in their first meeting...Though Joe got the decision it was not his best performance...not his best effort IMO...Hopkins looked horrible as well...
If Hopkins put the performance on he did against Pavlik and Calzaghe the one he did against Jones it would be a damn entertaining bout
If anyone believes that then there insane, it was an easy win for Joe Calzaghe. I don't care what some idiots think, they can't score a fight if they scored it that way.Quote:

Bernard Hopkins vs Joe Calzaghe was much closer and i personally had Bernard Hopkins winning based on the knockdown. He landed the cleaner more effective shots, and Joe Calzaghe could never get going with his offense.
Yeah the shots were so effective he did nothing but back peddle all night and got hit more than any other fight he had ever been in with, they were so effective.Quote:

and i don't think anyone would be shocked that you of all people would have Calzaghe lossing a fairly close fight.
Hell it's a wonder you haven't gone on about how he is prone to straight right hands again, you must be closing in on the 1 millionth mark for that one, i heard saddo has a band booked for the land mark post.
haha, thats some funny shit... true though...
Their styles stopped each other from looking good, Hopkins would run then put his head down throw an overhand right and grab, Joe would start to throw but have his rythm interupted.Quote:

Uhh i have nothing against Joe Calzaghe he is a great fighter, i had him losing by 1 point and many people see it that way. And why are you getting frustrated because i point out a fact that he is very suspect to straight right hands.Quote:

I am allowed to discuss his weaknesses, i don't care if your big fan of his or not. Lasty i don't mention it all the time only when the Bernard Hopkins/Robin Reid fights are brought up.
Whats funny ?Quote:

Joe obviously won that fight,but he was fighting a one handed opponent.
Being an American with no stake in the first Calzeghe Kessler,Joe won the fight,but to settle it once and for all there should be a rematch, because of the injury.
I would love to see a rematch. The first fight was outstanding.
Well I think it is true that Kessler was injuried but, then he should have pulled put of the fight instead of collecting a payday and take the piss on most of his fans, that being said, I enjoy to see Kessler fight.Quote:

I dont think you deserve a new fight unless you get injuried during the fight, and that was not the case here.
PS I would love to see Kessler-Calzaghe one more time, but I doubt that the rest of the world is ......
