    Calzaghe - Kessler is a mismatch

    The upcoming so called fight between Calzaghe and Kessler is a mismatch IMO. Kessler is overrated, and Calzaghe will have to much for him in every department and could be over as quickly as the manfredo fight. I don't see this fight going past 6 rounds. So if anyone thinks Kessler is going to win, I'll gladly take your money off you.

              Careful. That's a very nasty accusation to make. You have to be certain before calling people Welsh.

              I can't see this fight being as easy as the Lacy or Manfredo fight. Kessler might even be able to land a punch or not get retired in this fight.

              Lacy served my mate in Burger King the other week.

                I think Calzaghe is too much of a fighter here, Kessler stands a chance here but when I look at the ballistics I think Calzaghe has it locked in, facts have shown that Kessler can be hit just look at the Andrade fight, Calzaghe too can be hit so this leads us to the damage that will be done, Calzaghe will do more with his punches and will land more, he can punch from any location in the ring, he can fight and he can move, he has the stamina required to go 12 HARD rounds and has the hand speed to stay in his face, mark my words yo Kessler will do better than even Lacy, he will hurt Calzaghe and both will be cut but Calzaghe will walk away with the win, Kessler has great power, good speed, good defense and he is smart but Calzaghe can fight going backwards, forwards, side to side and with great hand speed, this fight will probably end on cuts because Mikkel Kessler is one of the toughest fighters I have seen in a long time, he had a war with Andrade and opened many eyes so I cannot see him being KO'ed so either a decision or cuts will decide this outcome, this one just like Calzaghe-Lacy will open many eyes and as a late year fight it can possibly steal fight of the year, depends how hard they go in against eachother, I pick Calzaghe but I will say Mikkel Kessler is a good sportsman and I think he will give the business to Calzaghe if Calzaghe is at least 1% off point but somehow I just don't see that happening, Calzaghe by Split or Unanimous.. Maybe cut's. 100

                  Calling it a mismatch is pushing it, but I can't believe so many so-called experts are predicting Kessler to win. One EPSN commentator called him "the most complete fighter in boxing today" That raised a slight chuckle with me.

                    Who said that? Kessler is a straightforward two-punch fighter. He has decent power and very good speed, but I can't see how this won't be easy for Calzaghe to come off looking great again.
