    No one is stopping Calzaghe unless he ages dramatically overnight. I see Calzaghe stopping Kessler late and winning most of the rounds on route to the stoppage.

      Really tough fight to predict. Kessler could use his jab effectively, but like some have mentioned Calzaghe with his movement could make it useless, but Kessler's jab is one of the best in the game. Calzaghe's hand speed is something Kessler hasn't faced yet. If I had to pick a winner I will go with Kessler especially if it's close and it's in Denmark. I think Kessler will use that jab effectively, and do damage with that one-two of his, but he's going to have use more variety against Calzaghe and I think he will and win a close SD or MD. I see it as being a close fight, both men know a win would be huge for both. Calzaghe a win would help out his legacy a ton and win for Kessler would put him in superstar status.

        It is indeed a difficult fight to predict. Both have amazing speed and great technical skills. The sad thing is that one of them will lose his unbeaten status, unless it's a draw.

          Why are we treating this fight like it's going to happen? We're talking about Joe Calzaghe here, guys. I won't believe this fight is real until the day after it occurs.

            Calzaghe has a huge fan base in wales, I think everyone in Wales is a fan of his even the people who rarely watch boxing are. I bet alot of them take a trip to denmark for this fight and that a bigger portion of the crowd will be rooting for calzaghe then most will expect. I wouldn't be surprised if its like 50/50 for rooting on calzaghe/kessler fight.

                Joe UD is the most likely scenario.

                  I object. The fight not happening is the most likely scenario.

                      Do you mean stopping him as in knocking him out or stopping him as in "no one can stop him, he will keep winning?"
                      I think Joe can be beat, but Id agree Kessler stopping him is highley unlikely.
