oh i dunno... if it was rte then jimmy magee would be yammering on about how lovely a woman kessler's granny is.

R2 to Kessler. He nailed JC too.

Kessler timing Joe too well for my liking to take round two. Wish Joe wouldn't showboat - this guy is clearly too dangerous to do that. Kessler's better at using the angles than I anticipated and is dictating the range at the moment.

was it a knockdown or a slip?

I gave the first round to Joe just, but Calzaghe had a great round three. He's closing the distance far better and forcing Kessler on the back foot - Kessler looks uncomfortable being backed up but Calzaghe has to watch out for the counter right as that's clearly the danger punch.
29-28 to Joe for me.

Kessler round, uppercut hurt Calzaghe. Jab working now.

This is shaping up to be a classic. Great uppercuts from Kessler and the balance has shifted again. Calzaghe looking really disorganised this time! Kessler's footwork is better than I anticipated.
All square after 4 for me.

Calzaghe edges round 5 for me simply through greater workrate and cleaner jab. The battle of the jabs looks as though it's going to decide the outcome, though if Joe keeps on dropping his head as he moves in he's inviting an uppercut - they've just said that Enzo has warned him against leaning in with his head down so let's hope he listens...

Kessler outobxed in the 6th, not taking advantage when Joe leans in.
