Hey, at least you got in there and threw fists, and didn't run for a couple rounds. I give more credit to people who do that than those who just back away and settle for a extremely boring decision loss....paging Audley...

Christ, we agree on something :wink:

No hard feelings but I get the feeling you are anti Joe?

how can anybody knock Joe after that preformance? No other boxer in the world could land that many punches on someone and win it in so much style and fashion. If so please tell me when it happenes again, but i bet it wont be in any of Kesslers fights.

We might be going slightly off topic but Kessler gave a totally dominant performance against Lucas. Lucas was given an even bigger beating than what Lacy received from Calzaghe, I know it's hard to believe but it's true :o

Lucas' face looked like a Pepperoni pizza at the end of the fight. It was a true masterclass by Kessler. Both were dominant performances but in terms of damage inflicted I would give Kessler the nod :box:

So that throws your theory out of the window. I grant you that Calzaghe beat a young champ (who wasn't really proven against 'top' competition) and Kessler beat an old ex-champ who was well past his best.

I'm trying to look at it from an unbiased point of view and I see Calzaghe v Kessler as a 50/50 fight. Lets hope that fight is made because Kessler would be the most difficult opponent for Calzaghe by far.
