Those who don't like/respect Calzaghe right now......will just dismiss Kessler as a bum, of course.

Probably. Like the lacy fight, it would look impressive at first but it would fade away and people would start questioning whether Kessler was as good to begin with. Then there is always a potential of Kessler losing to another fighter who is not of Calzaghe's caliber.

But not to worry since he won't knock him out. This fight has split decision going either way written all over it.

something you gotta understand is that when someone already has it set in their minds not to like a fighter they will look for any reason to bash him, Calzaghe is Boxing's longest reigning Champion yet he gets no credit in the eyes of some, why do you think that is? because he's not worthy of respect? nah, it's cuz of the haters who put aside talent for favoritism, same kind of people who bash Floyd. truth is there will always be haters and that wont change, they'll forever find ways to discredit his wins and the day he finally loses they will jump on him and be like "I told you so".. people like that aren't real fans of the sport, they are fans of the fighters but not the sport, ME personally I am a fan of Boxing I just respect the fighters but I call **** neutral I am an unbiased poster on here, I can't say the same for many others..

to answer your question, no, he will not get the credit of the haters, they will continue to find ways to hate on him irrationally, not just Calzaghe neither it goes for any boxer who is on top right now, those scum bag haters wont watch the fight to see history go down or to see the best two fighters in the weight class clash they going to watch it to see Calzaghe lose and if he wins they'll find a reason to strip him from all credit, ****in sad but true, Joe deserves the respect from ALL Boxing fans for his accomplishments.. 100

This will not happen....no ****ing way.I'd bet anything on it.Kessler is the real deal and Calzaghe has never stopped anyone legitemitely inside 3.....well not since he's been a titleholder anyway.......that being said Calzaghe UD.

Kessler is much better thjan Lacy going in so it would be a feat. Win this fight at all, and the debate is all but over; Calzaghe already might be and then would be, the best champ in the 24 year history of the 168-lb. class.

I will jump from a building if that happens.

dunno about anyone else, not that i'd take the time to care BUT if this happened then that would HUSH up a LOT of joe's critics, if not all.

[Thread Stealer]

kessler is more skilled and definitely more proven than lacy.

joe shall receive full props if he wins impressively.

Im not a hater of any fighter , some Im critical about but I will always state why and debate it with genuine reasons ,, the hate thing gets thrown around to much , a hater is very insulting about a fighter , personal insults , stuff thats got nothing to do with boxing they attack them on a personal level and cant debate facts with anyone , they just insult , thats a hater .

As far as Joe beating Kessler , I will give Joe all the props in the world if he wins cleanly , Kessler is a dual WC and the real deal for the division , I think Joe has a padded resume and is over rated , but if wins I dont mind admitting I was wrong .
