    Indeed. Also an unmatched punch-output and a great fighting heart.

    Any news on Kessler lately?

    I haven't seen anything about him.

      No improvement at all with the eye and he has moved back to Denmark. The consensus here is that he is done.

        I think you're under selling Joe here, Kessler can't adapt Joe figured that out and Joe was excellent at making not just mid fight change but mid round changes. Hopkins was just too inactive, you can't win fights if you stop punching after the 4th rounds.

        Jones is old, Calzaghe had an excellent beard and whenever he was dropped he recovered very quickly, he threw good combinations and his workrate was through the roof it's a shame he had hand problems because whatever power he used to have disappeared in the twilight of his career.

            Joe dominated Jones and Kessler but lost to Hopkins by 2 points IMO. Anything past the Glen Johnson is a total shell of Jones so I don't really give Calzaghe much credit at all for that win compared to his win over Kessler.

              Errrrrrr........Hopkins gets no points from me for landing 2 clean punches per rd (albeit, they were clean that's all he accomplished while looked old and outmatched). Hops was faking injuries and playing to the ref as much as possible just to get a breather, to me, that is just as bad as Cintron jumping out of the ring or faking a seizure.
