American Boxing fans, does a Calzaghe vs Kessler fight not interest you?

[TheEvilSaint]

who the hell ISN'T intrested in this fight? a fight to decide the true undisputed SMW champion is a cant miss.

[GEOFFHAYES]

Who the hell is Kessler? I'd never even heard of him before this year.

[Shanus]

Fine, fine. I strongly disagree; but fine. All I know was I had Wright winning; and I could see that most of those who were at the fight had Wright winning by their facial reactions. The Arkansan contingent was depressed as hell until the decision brought them back from the brink of a possible mass-suicide.

It doesn't matter anymore, anyway.

When the fight had just finished I thought Wright had won it decisively, I had him ahead by two points.

Awesome fight in the making i hope we get this bout in the states in nEW york or Vegas ive seen many Calzaghe bouts and a couple off KESSLers bouts and am not sure how Kessler would cope with the presure he will be under because the bouts ive seen they have almost been total mismatches 4 kessler vs guys who dont belong in their with him even sparin i dont know how he would do with a guys who is in your face for the full 12 rounds with calzaghes awesome speed would he last?, for me a "up for it" calzaghe would outclass kessler 80per cent off the time but you never know,

Impressive. Decent footspeed, good workrate, decent handspeed. He seems to be a good technician with good power. I think Joe's handspeed and accuracey would throw him off a bit; but I'll bet it would be a good fight.

Thanks.

I'd like to see it, but it'd help alot of it was in America. The press coverage of fights make the events.

None of the American boxing fans know who Kessler is, apart from ****ing internet saddo's ofcourse.

Every boxing fan in America knows Joe, surely?

Taylor and Hopkins make sense, the average Kessler doesn't.

I can't help feeling Kessler is a what Mario Veit would have been if he'd managed to fight a couple of warm bodies for title belts. Similar builds, similar techniques, both hyped to high heaven by their fans ....

Janeorg, this is a trivial exercise. Follow my logic.

1. This is a forum for "hardcore" boxing fans such as yourself - of course they want to see this fight.
2. There are perhaps a maximum of a few hundred regular posters here.
3. Calzaghe wants to get hundreds of thousands of ppv buys for his next fight.
4. It is clear that what this poll tells you will not help much in seeing why Calzaghe should or should not fight Kessler.

[The Scientist]

This is the excuse from Joe Calzaghe in reference to not wanting to fight Kessler. he says American boxing fans arent interested. So I'm just doing a poll to see if it's more bull****

I'd rather see Kessler vs Calzaghe then any other fighter in the 160-175 range vs Calzaghe..

What about you, are you interested in this fight?

I'm one of the few Americans that would be interested in seeing this fight happen. But I'm sure I never will. Joe will probably move up to Light Heavy and face a couple of the names there. Glencoffe Johnson would be a good fight for him.
