Hmmm, the fight went pretty much how I thought it would. Kessler made me a fan with his heart and post-fight class, but Calzaghe showed everyone that he's on a totally different level. Seeing him fight like this against a guy who was young, experienced, and talented makes you realize if Calzaghe's had a point all these years when he claimed that guys like Hopkins, Jones, and Ottke were ducking him all these years. It really was a masterful performance by Calzaghe and he'll most likely leave 168 as arguably the greatest boxer in the short history of the division. Bring on Calzaghe/Hopkins!
