    If it's close to Calzaghe/Lacy you pick UD.

    dsimon writes;

    Kessler wins a close fight but the judges give it to Joe by split decision. So Joe gets the nod even though he loses.... It will be like the first Taylor Hopkins decision.

    word. :lol:

    But no way is it going to be a one-sided fight either way. Kessler is big strong and smart....Calzaghe seems to have endless reserves of heart and stamina.

    I don't see a KO either way and so it's going to be a close decision.

    I kinda want to be wrong just because it would be cool to see Calzaghe lose in front of so many fans. Plus Kessler is much younger so it would create a new star.

    well, my feeling is, kessler is top notch and sloppy joe is overrated as hell. so i'll go with kessler, and note that after he beats the piss outta joe, he'll still have a lot to prove.

    also, if joe manages to win, it'll be visa vie stink and ref corroboration (usual manner in which sloppy wins).

    Being that you're confidently picking Kessler, I am seriously considering putting some money on Joe.

    Sloppy Joe clear UD.

    In this particular fight, this result is rather feasible...
