Thread: kessler - Lets put my neck on the line...

people may laugh - or may not but im going to stick my neck out and say he beats anyone at 168 in the next couple of years, including pavlik, miranda and taylor.However i do think he would struggle most against taylor.

strangly enough i think pavlik would probably beat joe C but i think kessler has the style and coolness about him to win over 12 rounds.

just a future prediction... lets see

I think u might be on to something there.

He fought a great fight with Calzaghe that was pretty close to even earlier on, and maybe not being able to spar or use the heavy bag for the last few weeks took its toll, I don't know, but Kessler fought a great fight, so did Calzaghe. They were both amazing, and Kessler was also amazing against Andrade who has looked good since then.

I think he also beats Taylor, Miranda, Pavlik perhaps easier then Calzaghe would because he has more power, and that great jab. I still think he is one of the top 10 best fighters in the world.

Kessler is definitely a great prospect and although I realise he needed some recuperation time having lost to Calzaghe, he really needs to get back to fighting name opponents.

I have a lot of respect for Kessler after the Calzaghe fight.

I do rate him highly and think he could beat Pavlik, Taylor or anyone else although the 2 mentioned would be good close fights

And Dont forget about my boy in this equation !

Carl is exciting but until he beats a non bum how can anyone know what the cat has?

Real bad bum basher is Froak.

Mikkel definitely is a tough fight for anyone. His only issue is he is sort of on the outside looking in right now. This is mainly due to poor management. He really needs to go to the States and crash the party there and make his face seen.

Right now he is overlooked by other top fighters management because he is a huge risk to their fighter. He is overlooked by the media over here because he is fighting low key opponents and simply not making himself noticed.

It is not a great position to be in, but if he gets some fights over here, especially against the likes of the Bute/Andrade winner, the others will be forced to take notice.

I have no doubt that Kessler will beat Calzaghe in rematch. Kessler's worst fight was against Calzaghe - and he lost only by 5 points - I have no doubt that he will win the next fight - no doubt.......

Hes not gay dont worry haha.

but hes next fight im sure is against Jean Pascal, we will see the real Froch here.

I think he beats everyone you mentioned except for Pavlik. I think it would be a great fight between the two. Kessler needs to fight though. I don't like how the Miranda fight did not happen. Taylor would seem to be a very logical fight for him.

I hope so as I like Froch but I think he needs some tough fights to test him and bring the best out him. Only then will we know is potential

FROCH GOT HIS BUS PASS YET ?

I think Froch hurts Kessler.

Body shot stoppage.

I think Froch gets badly outboxed
