    On a serious note, Kessler is only known by HARDCORE boxing fans.

    Seriously.

        Hopkins was a good win, but it was obvious Calzaghe would emerge victorious, which for me was not true in either the Lacy or Kessler fights.
        do you think kessler is better than brewer , reid , mitchell , etc.?

        i rank those 3 wins pretty good and don't rank the lacy and kessler wins much better.

        people always bring up kessler and lacy and disregard brewer , reid and mitchell imo those 3 were very solid wins. all 3 were top 10 in their division for years and all 3 had been champ at one point.

                    Those of you saying things like "Kess who?" appear to believe that ignorance is some sort of virtue. It seems to me that you approach boxing from the standpoint of a moron who chants "USA! USA!" and take as your starting point for all judgements "is he from da States?".

                    Whether you heard of Kessler or not has nothing to do with how good he is, nor from the fact that he was, and indeed remains, the most credible challenger for best SMW boxer. I prefer my fighters to beat credible opponents rather than "names", but if you think otherwise its up to you.

                    I would have thought, given your opinion that you are all absolutely delighted with Calzaghe's decision to face Jones and when he beats him will universally hail it as the "biggest" win of his career. I would have preferred Pavlik personally.

                      Kessler or Eubank is the best Calzaghe has faced, I don't understand people who say Hopkins won the fight, they shouldn't be allowed to judge ever again, wasnt a woman judge who gave it hopkins anyways?
