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
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.

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.

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.
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.

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.
