Mikkel Kessler would knock Roy jones out ..

[mojack]

Actually, I couldnt believe of the LACK of what Bernard had....

No combinations, he gassed out half way through the fight, comes in with his head down... one punch and clinch...

He had a good right hand lead, but it seems like its the only plan he came in with.

I agree, it was his bread and butter punch, that right hand that made Bernard, the same punch that flawed Calzaghe, even though we all knew it was coming including Calzaghe. However Calzaghe thereafter nulled it with a block. That's what was better about Calzaghe, he adapted to Bernard on the fly.

If Kessler is this beasty ass fighter why does the thought of this guy make him shiver??? Easy night of work for the great Kessler right????

[IMDAZED]

Well my point is just that Kessler is still Calzaghes biggest win, Bigger than Hopkins and bigger than if he beats Jones IMO.

Well then that's not saying a lot...

And possibly Bernard Hopkins, maybe not knock him out, but defeat him either way .. Kessler is still Calzaghes biggest win IMO .. He doesn't have as good a resume as Jones or Hopkins, nor is he as great but presently, Kessler poses more threat to anybody than Hopkins or Jones does.

Agreed. Kessler probably would knock Jones out now, not prime for prime though. He hits harder than Tarver I imagine.

I think its possible though that Roy may be a bit older and wiser than he used to be. He must be glaringly aware that he can't take the big shots, so I think he'd try very hard not to, and might get through the fight, at which point the possibility of taking a decision certainly exists.

I didn't say it was, I'm not a Calzaghe fan or a Calzaghe hater, I'm just trying to make my own mind up about him to be honest ...

Hopkins always had a better chance against Calzaghe than he would against Kessler. I'm with you, azza.

[Dorian]

he would give them a good fight and could beat hops IMO

[Silencers]

Jones has the ability to outbox Kessler but I think there's more a chance of Kessler winning than Jones winning right now.

Prime for prime, Jones wins.

Kessler would knock out Roy Jones now.

Hopkins might mug him though.

I also think Roy might beat Joe when they meet.

I think that fight will happen in the future you know, I don't think Kessler is scared of him, something must have ****ed up in the negotiation.

Definately not prime for prime, this fight might actually become reality if Joe beats Jones ... I wonder if Jones takes the fight though? If he got KO'd it would most likely be the end of his career.
