    I do find it funny that people on this forum **** on Calzaghe all the time and call him overrated yet in the same breath they rate Kessler. There must be a reason for that.

      I rate both, both great fighters not Calzaghes fault that no Yank wanted to leave USA to fight him only one that had the balls to do so was Jeff Lacy.

          I wish this fight could have happened for both in their primes.

          I think Golovkin is the goods, but until we see him with higher rated fighters I do not know how he would match up with world class level fighters.

          I voted for Golovkin because I just think he would break down Kessler in the later rounds to win a close decision. But I think its a 50/50 fight.

          I hope we see Golovkin vs Saunders, and Jacobs two guys who are levels above his current opposition.

          For some reason I think that Brook will do better than most think (though I still think he gets stopped before 6). I think this will entice other fighters to get in the ring with Golovkin.

              Based on the fact that Kessler can be caught off balance a lot....mix that with golovkin accuracy and power

                Yeah, Golovkin is so accurate that Murray lasted 11 rounds and would have gone the distance if not for the referee.
