Been looking forward to this for weeks.

Calzaghe will raise the benchmark again tonight imo

I think Calzaghe is ahead but not by that much - great fight though

Another boxing masterclass by the legend that is Calzaghe.

One of the finest boxers on planet earth.

Calzaghe was too much for Kessler.  I had him ahead by 6 rounds, and when Calzaghe backed up Kessler he made the Dane look pretty ordinary.  No denying that Kessler is a world class super-middleweight though - just that Calzaghe is very much at the top of that particular tree.

Shame the coverage was awful.

I was going to go and see 'Good luck Chuck. I'm now not.
If I see a Mitsubishi driver today I'm going to ram them off the road.
I hate being subjected to adverts during pay per view events - particularly when the corner talk in between rounds is usually pretty interesting.

Good fight well fought, and I like the way Kessler spoke after the fight, no bullsh*t like you normally here from a losing fighter, just an honest assessment that Calzaghe was the better boxer...

Top fight Kessler through some cracking punches and Calzaghe did well to stand up to them a sign that if he does move up then he doesn't need to worry too much about facing fighters with that extra bit of power.

Calzaghe was in control throughout and delivered a boxing masterclass.

I thought both fighters where a credit to the sport in the post match interviews.

good technical performance.

Bernard Hopkins then hopefuly retire 45-0-0?

Would be a very satisfactory ending.

spoty 2008

not 2007 obviously, cause Hatton will get that after the Mayweather fight  ;pokergods;

The only real fight left for him.  Taylor was a possibility but thats gone after he lost to Pavlik and Calzaghe says he is moving up. The only man anywhere near Calzaghe's class at 175 is Hopkins.

I also think Kessler came out of the fight with his reputation enhanced despite losing, he was always dangerous but just didn't have enough to cope with Calzaghe.


Still some will argue that Calzaghe is Britains number two when its not even close ;)

ARGGGHHHHH  ;frustrated;
I agree it really did my head in in between rounds. Boxing enthusaists really want to see all the action including between the rounds.

It was tough but Calzaghe was Awesome against a world class super middleweight in Kessler, he just is too good, a true legend.
Both fighters were a credit to the sport.

I agree the ads were annoying, but yo be fair, it wasn't PPV.

Ads in between fights is ok for PPV but not between rounds.
