How bad would Kessler beat Calzaghe in a rematch?

[BattlingNelson]

Ok so it kessler first high profile fight and against his best test. How bad would he beat joe in a rematch? He just had an off night like everyone does.

No off-night. Just a broken hand.

The only way Kessler wins is if Calzaghe deteriorates with age. I'm sorry but Kessler is too one-dimensional for Joe. I thought the same thing going into their fight so it was really no surprise to see Calzaghe outclass him. Don't take this as anti Kessler post but I just think style wise he's a bad matchup for Calzaghe. Pavlik-Kessler on the other hand would be interesting fight and I'd have a hard time picking a winner.

I bet a grand that Kessler was going to beat him in the first fight so I was keen on him beating Joe at the time , after seeing the fight Joe came up and Kessler went down in my view , Kessler wont come from behind and wont gut out a win with the real top fighters , Joe has too much grit for Kessler and I think that will ever change , Kessler has been good to me in real money bets , I won 3 grand on him when he beat Mundine and 300 when he knocked out Beyer , I wont bet on him against either Pavlik Dawson or JC , I dont see improvement in Kessler only more of the same .

No wonder you hate Calzaghe

Kessler is overrated IMO
who has he fought?

I'll take it a step further, Kesslers trash. I will say this tho, We Americans buld our fighters up the same way (Lacy etc.) We give these guys way to much credit off fighting nobody, then when they lose everyone screams overrated, when in actuallity they shouldnt have been rated that highly in the first place.

Kessler needs to get that Taylor fight.

If you know boxing, you can't honestly watch Pavlik and Kessler and conclude that Pavlik is as good.

Kessler will beat Taylor if JT has the balls to fight (he's already ducked him, and will avoid it at all costs), and he will beat Pavlik.

kessler got a good right hand and good skills but imo hes not a tough fighter. hes not the type that can be in really tough gritty fights and thats why i would pick glen johnson over him in a heartbeat cuz kessler cant hurt glen and glen would break him down.

oh aorry for going offtopic, cal wins another decision over kessler

i think both pavlik AND kessler are ovverated
but i think Pav would get the better of him if they fought, hel learn alot fighting vs Bernard.
Kessler has fought no1 so we dont know how he would fare agaionst a power puncher like Pavlik

at SMW not sure who would win though, id bet on pavlik

I'm not blown away by any of the three to tell you the truth. Taylor digressed after he fought Hopkins (even tho I didnt think he landed **** in those fights anyway) Pavlik will be outboxed and probably busted up soon. Calzaghe fans big up Kessler to make Joey look look better.
