He is. Some of the shots he took without flinching, his willingness to trade with a dangerous puncher like Kessler etc. And his great boxing skills make him a great fighter period.
Calzaghe is a Special Fighter!

Jesus. Some people take a SPORTING even to heart. It was a great fight, and the better man won. END ALL.Comment

Calzaghie is the better athlete-no doubt. but Kessler threw the textbook perfect uppercuts and straight rights-Btw Calzaghe showed a serious beard early on.
But to say calzaghie looked technically good even is a stretch. he is great at what he does, which is in and out and combination(akward) go.
Kessler lost because he has to set to throw effectively. whenever calzaghie got inside kessler was just plain clumbsy!
Kessler lost because of poor corner and inability to fight effectively close up! standard european problems.
Calzaghie is a rare breed of brawler that can box effectively-I see Hopkins beating him though- he has the right mentality to do it!Comment

i dont know why is there people so unrespecful. we just saw a great fight and as boxing fans we should all be happy about it. both guys fought great, but the better boxer won. kessler is an excellent boxer, i really got a great respect for him today, but joe is just an superb boxer.
thanks both guys, cos this kind of fights are the reason i like boxing so much

All the guys above dont have great 'technique' in a classic sense, but they do have 'skills'. They can see more openings then other fighters. That's what makes them great.
Sounds like sour g****s to me, man. Sorry.Comment
