Kessler Vs Calzaghe Poll Who Will Win

[Elephant Beer]

Id like to see Kessler go deep with Calzaghe i know he aint gonna blow Calzaghe out and he certainly isint gonna outbox him for 12 rounds .

Kessler relies on the Jab and right along with good movement but he is hittable , a fight with Joe will answer more questions about Kessler than i believe it will answer about Joe - a sharp Joe .

If the fight happens you will see Kessler pushed back and made to answer questions he likes his man out front on the end of his jab lets see what he's like with somebody with Calzaghes strength , eyes , speed and fitness.

Everybody goes on about Andrades great chin , so F****** what like you get points for getting hit .

Bring the fight on i fancy Joe to have to much .

Kessler does not relie on his jab. Watch the Andrade-Kessler fight again. When Lucas came to Denmark his game-plan was to out-jab Kessler as his camp thought that the Jab was Kessler's weakest point. Kessler uses his jab sometimes as his main weapon simetimes not. Strange that he is lefthanded and box out of standard position.

Wow that's a bold prediction (Swashy) i feel. But fair. Kessler seems very adaptable in terms of styles but i haven't seen enough of both to really make an informed comment. But Kessler really has a momentum at the moment and Calzaghe seems to be stalling somewhat, so i reckon it would be a good time for them to fight. Lets hope it happens as I'd hate to see either one avoiding the fight for whatever reason.

Hee Hee. Sir Swashy in a fiesty mood - look out! I've seen both fight and think it would be a good fight. i have not seen Kessler against a southpaw though. I wonder how he goes there?

Here Kessler against a southpaw and try to see that happen

What the fuck are you on about doesnt relie on his jab ?
Everything he does he starts with the jab i didnt say it was his main weapon but its the punch he uses to probe distance and find his range and timing !!

Doesnt use his jab ?

Be quiet you complete ........whatever you are .

Markus Beyer isn't even in same league as Calzaghe

I never said Markus Beyer are in the same league as Calzaghe,only try to show bikersk Kessler against
southpaw,nothing else

[Fenster]

Calzaghe wins by UD. Don't see the fight happening though, neither will give up hometown advantage.

BS - that is just a statement from Frank Warren.

Kessler has stated over and over and over and over that he is ready to fight in Wales or M.E.N or where ever Calzaghe wants to fight

You forgot to mention followed by

IF the price is right

[spanky-banky]

I am going with Kessler by decision. Calzaghe struggled with Bika and Evans Ashira. Mikkel will destroy him. I know people will bring up the lacy fight but lacy had a bodybuilder physique and that kind of physique doesnot neccesariliy mean unbelievable power but Kessler can bang and box. Should be a great fight, unless Calzage pretends to injure 'injures' his hand again.

You're kidding. Lacy brought buckets of power- let's not rewrite history. He also always has had great stamina. Kessler would not do as well as Lacy, he would get whupped even worse. If he's lucky, Kessler loses by UD.

Is your head in liquid it must be to say Lacy is better than Kessler Kessler has been fighting good guys has good power and can fight and box

Didn't say Lacy was better than Kessler. Stylistically, I don't think Kessler would do as well as Lacy. Calzaghe is much too fast for Kessler and Kessler doesn't have as much power as Lacy--and one thing in Lacy's favor, he was awesome at mixing up his punches and finishing, all of which had to have been somewhere in Calzaghe's mind--Kessler might be more talented, but less of a threat than Lacy, thereby giving Calzaghe even more confidence to dismantle him.

More than anything, I was refuting the assertion that Kessler has more power than Lacy and that Lacy only had a bodybuilder's physique.

Why should Calzaghe's handspeed be a problem for Kessler? There are not much between them in speed and Mundine is even quicker than Calzaghe, and Kessler did well to handle his speed

Have you actually seen Kessler fight ? I suggest you go and view on of his fights and then come back with a decent opinion !!

As for Mundine ? What has he done ?

Is anyone going to contribute a detailed opinion ?

Mr T be quiet , construct your sentences properly or not at all .

As for Mundine ? What has he done ?
...............he whooped danny green.......sam soliman.......and antwan echols a$$

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

We all know Mundie is by far a much better boxer now than the guy that fought Kessler.
So in that respect, we cant really look into how Kessler handled Mundine unless we decide to stick a set of blinkers on.

Other than that, i have to say its a real toss up. Calzaghe could outwork Kessler and show the extra class...

Calzaghe would need to make Kessler walk on to him to show him all his lateral skills and "fluster-clusters".

But those loooong, hard and fast left and rights look mighty dangerous. They might just keep Calzaghe out the fight for long enough to win.

[sesben]

Killersheep:

Dont forget that Peter Manfredo is crap laid by a F****** mediamonster! :S

How does that change us seeing if Calzaghe is beginning to slow down or not?

Cause Manfredo is no match for Cal... Its simply just a fight for the money, i dont see any sport in this fight. They could just as well hand over the money to Cal and move on to Kess were the real sport is!

you couldnt say that kessler has no power.. most of us saw him fight once on tv... and the guy he fought has a helmet for a head

[Violent Demise]

Kessler already has Calzaghe beat. Joe is scared. It's that simple. Kessler has made several comments about fighting Calzaghe. I have yet to hear Calzaghe even mention fighting Kessler. He doesn't seem to even want to mention his name. Calzaghe turned down 3.4 million to fight Kessler. Instead he decides to fight TV bum Peter Manfredo. I seriously doubt he's making more than 3.4 million for it. People can blame Warren if they want. But Calzaghe has never stated he has a problem with Warren choices.
