Well I cant see Mundine fghting anyone now that he cant see 100%!!!

I hope not. But im going off what Mundine said today. When he was released from hospital. " i have overcome injustice, other adversity and fought the best fighters, im going to fight again"

[Dick-Sucker]

Mundine is too busy looking for fighters in retirement homes to fight. Keep dreaming about his fight with Joe if it makes you feel any better. Don't forget to post the results.

Like when he fought Kessler?

[KESSLER]

True, can't take anything away from Mundine. Mundine is Mundine, and lets just leave it to that and see what happens with the eye ! About the Kessler thing, of course he's gonna back up Kessler when he lives in Denmark ... Besides Kessler, Denmark has had a bunch of nobodys ! And I live in Denmark too, but I don't care, I'll still admit it .

Miranda vs Lacy damn thats a great match-up!

It's no 12-rounder, that for damn sure.

To compare Jeff Lacy and Kessler is like comparing Mundine with Calzaghe.
And that is bull****



Calzaghe literally beating Lacy to death doing what we supposed was Lacys game (inside).

Calzaghe just shows how unorthodox and completely out of range he is - fighting on the inside.

Again, the fight also shows something very important. Calzaghe will not be allowed to move Kessler around like he did Lacy because Kessler will keep the fight at a distance (and Kessler wins this outside matchup - no ****in doubt). Interesting to see what Joe does in this situation - the first time he faces an opponent better than him on the outside.

The reason Im saying this is that Joe - in almost all of his fights - typically sets it up from the outside - then moves to the side throwing awkward punches moving in with flurries.
He is open to some of Kesslers best weapons doing this....

The jab (I know some idiots claim a jab never works against southpaw's )

Overhand right

Lead right

And the punch that will be surprising= Kesslers Left hook

The left hook will work because Joe will be moving to his right while getting at distance to set something up. Kesler is excellent in judging distance and will be taking advantage of this imho.

Eitherway I think its safe to say that the fight will be TOTALLY and utterly different from the Lacy fight. Lacy was seeking infight - Kessler is doing the opposite

Calzaghe Has beaten Every Straight Up, 1-2 punch, distance Fighter he has ever faced..

The Euro stand up style was Tailor made For Joe..

I too do Not expect this fight to be a Breeze.. Like The lacy Fight..

But In order for kessler to win .. he is going to have to RE Invent himself a little.. he is very predictable.. He is gonna have to learn a few new Tricks..
