Thread: Kessler vs Calzaghe - Who Wins As Of Now?

Do you really have to generalise about the whole UK like that?? It was one dodgy official. And the US has had MORE than it's fair share of those!! Manfredo was hopelessly out of his depth anyway. He just curled up into a little ball. I thought he was gonna cry at one point!! _________________ My Fight List - http://www.megaupload.com/?d=BJU8AGZM

Maybe, but he has some decision wins over naturally smaller fighters that I find perplexing based on that claim. _________________ Robin Hood, William Tell, Ivanhoe and Lancelot...they don't envy me.

Can anyone identify the moment at which Joe Calzaghe broke a hand in the third round against Peter Manfredo because what I saw resembled an angry Mother slapping a wriggling child wherever she could land the palm of her hand? Did it occur at the end of the round when the referee, angry with himself for making such a bad call with the premature stoppage, squeezed Calzaghe's hand too tightly as he raised it in victory? Against a Kessler or...

Why not the US? The premature stoppage on Saturday is a glaring example of why Kessler should not go to the UK to fight Calzaghe. He will not get a fair shake. All Calzaghe has to do is throw a volley of slapping punches (that don't even need to land) and the ref will step in. Homefield advantage will be big in this fight because they are so evenly matched. _________________ Stick and Move, Brian Wilbur Feature Writer...

ill go for joe i think hes speed beats kassle ..but it wud be a good fight tho hopes it happens then will see for real .but my pick is joe ...peaceee

Joe got so more in the locker and will beat Kessler if they ever fight. Warren has offered the fight to Kessler in june/July but been turned down as Kessler is busy. They offered £3million to Jermain Taylor and we'll have to see how that goes though it's to fight in the UK. Joe needs to goto the US but after a 35,000 crowd in Wales and the money Warren would have made-he wants it here. _________________ Old Welsh saying: The Man who...

Yeah, I don't think its fair to generalize one daft judge and say that all UK fights are cooked. I seriously doubt that this referee said "I'm gonna preserve national pride and stop this fight the first opportunity I have!" I think the ref. just got over anxious at the sound of over 35,000 fans rioting at the first sign of Joe starting to come on. If Kessler fought anywhere in the UK, other than Wales, He'd get...

I think Joe Will beat Kessler With his hand speed, I think the manfredo fight which i was at, was stopped premature however i dont think there could have been a different outcome, i would have liked it to go further but i dont think he would have lasted another round. i think the referee was wrong to stop it but you cant account for all english refs like that. im new to this forum im not sure how it works, but id like to request to buy the...

I still think Joe would win, but I read the other day that Beyer said "Kessler is by far the strongest fighter in the supermiddleweight division" _________________ http://www.freewebs.com/neutral-corner/
