Let's put this in perspective...at his best Joe Mesi was beat up pretty good by a crusierweught in Jirov because Jirov could box and it nullified a lot of what Joe did best...what made Joe special was his ability to move, quick hands and surprising power...I did not see anything even close to that last night...He is fighting more like a shot fighter than just ring rust, his basic reflexes just were not there...Tessier is a warm body and the fight was comepetitive, not a good sign.

I agree with the poster that said Joe should become an announcer ...right now boxing needs good and knowledgeable announcers and commentators...just watching one HBO or SHO fight is testament to that...
