The Final Word: Calzaghe Or Kessler?

I think anyone who seems so sure of a result, are talking BS.

It's very, very hard to comapre them, as they haven't even mixed with the same competition. The way I see it is that Kessler is the perfect all rounder, but Joe has that special thing about him that'll make him a 116-111, 116-111, 115-112 winner, home advantage also. So Joe for me, unless he's grown old over night.

Shut up dipshit, the title of the thread was 'final word' i.e. make a prediction, not waffle on about how difficult it is to pick a winner. We all know how hard it is to pick a winner!

Calzaghe, somehow he just has to -The last thing I want to see is a close decision either way or a split decision - I am hoping Joe can pull off a clear win that cant be argued about - I dread it going to the judges scorecards and that is the most likely scenario - Being totally honest, I still cant pick the winner.

Calzaghe

It's going to be a privilege to watch two such elite level fighters duking it out though, whatever the outcome. Fights like this is what boxing is all about.

Calzaghe - I think he's just that little bit better.

Calzaghe's going for the old fashioned 'steptoe impression' staredown technique.

At Joe's age the next fight could always be the one when old age catches up with him. If it doesn't then I expect him to win.

We were sitting in our car waiting for one of our grandchildren to come out of school when my wife asked "what if either Calzaghe or Kessler pulls out at the last moment" - I replied "phone Froch" - Then I thought afterwards, is Froch actually on standby just in case the unthinkable should happen - I mean at short notice, what a great sub already in training - Can you imagine the announcement, we have good news and bad "The bad news is Kessler has pulled out through injury but the good news is Calzaghe is fighting Froch" - It wouldnt please the Americans but I cant see too many British being dissapointed - Then again the idear is probably total shite, too many problems, politics etc just to please the fans and would Joe agree, I dont think so.
