Well when Joe punches (if you wanna call it that) to me they look like slaps or like hes playing paddy cake...
I mean his punches are sloppy and put's nothing behind them.
It's not a hand speed contest. The object to beat the opponent hows he gonna beat Kess by caressing him?
It's a known fact Joe has issues with his hand.
Kesslers not the fastest, well then go and watch the Andrade fight to me the combos he threw were with good speed.
He threw in different angles and mixed it up.
It's easy to look good against people like Andrade, who look like they're wearing concrete boots compared to Calzaghe. Lacy found that out when he couldn't get close enough to Calzaghe to throw combinations, like the guys at Showtime explained on the broadcast of the fight. You can watch it free here along with a bunch of other fights.

Calzaghe isn't going to be plodding in at Kessler in straight lines, has footwork and handspped in a different league to Kessler. Kessler has the same chance lacy had, which is to land a big punch. Watch how well that went for him.
