Sorry fellas... he just doesnt. He has no power and slaps from diff angles. Kessler should have wore his ass out but seemed to not like being hit or slapped. He should have not backed up as much as he did and went forward with his straight shot and not have worried about being hit. There is noway those punches hurt him. Also listening to the the commentators ( i forget there names atm) talk about how great Calzaghe is doesnt sit right with me. That all i have to rant about im sure there is another post about this fight i missed but its late time for bed.

It only took you 1 post to lose all your credibility on Boxingscene, congratulations on setting the new record.

i wont post much if any at all but i had to get that off my chest after watching the fight. Calzaghe in my eyes is nothing special. I'm not worried about credibility...

I guess you're entitled to your own opinion, even if it is a ******ed one.

I'm sure Calzaghe is heartbroken because you're not impressed with him

some people just don't know Boxing, his style is a winning style, Joe was made to fight, you can tell.. I'm just saying not everybody is going to like joe, it's a matter of opinion but to say he has no power and slaps from different angles is out the box, that **** just ain't true. he may sometimes strike with a semi open hand but we all know of his hand problems in the past, by doing that not only does it allow for a quicker release as oppose to a stiff power shot but it also is easier on his hands, not so much impact on his knuckles directly.. it's a SMART way of fighting, a winning style, you gotta look at both sides of the book here and see that regardless how you may feel about his power and style for over 10 years he's been undefeated and for the last 10 years he's been a champion, he's doing something right.. 100

watching his style didnt impress me at all, until he was tripling the punches landed by kessler per round and actually HURT kessler to the body even though his punches are so short that it seems they could never hurt anyone.

He outboxed Kessler beautifully in the middle rounds, when the fight was still very much up for grabs. That showed me he is the real deal. I love the way he fights. He has a ton of charisma, and seems like he'd be a cool dude in real life. Joey Crack is what's great about not just boxing, but sports in general.

He loses to Hopkins, though. I don't like it either, but I did the math, and Bernard wins an ugly, violent decision. Even bloodier than the Winky fight. You'll see.

calzaghe style of fight is so boring he ****s me. i enjoyed the way kessler hit him in the early rounds shows how vulnerable he is to a good style boxer. the likes of leonard or hagler would have exposed calzaghe because of their fitness. kessler lost his breath too early thats why he didnt throw any punches but any of the older legends like hagler leonard and jones jnr in his prime would expose and knock calzaghe silly.as a boxing fan im not satisfied with that performance.

Calzaghe does not impress me at all.
