It will be a very good fight for Kessler

I agree good fight for Kessler if he shines in this fight could open alot of doors, but on the other hand Johnson is not seen as a marquee fighter and possibly Kessler could look a million dollers and be then be avoided by the other top boys in and around 170.

[Bomp]

It's a fight that makes sense between two guys struggling to find suitable opponents. Would be a war as well. At 170 I'd favour Kess.

[Fenster]

Yes.. good fight for Kessler. Johnson is certainly a big enough name for the hardcores.

Even though Kessler will win a clear-ish points decision expect a hundred "Johnson was robbed" threads.

You must have thought Dawson clearly beat Johnson?

I thought Johnson was going to fight Diaconu. Anyway, good fight for Kessler and the kind of fight he needs to break into the US. If he looks good beating Johnson, when Dawson looked poorly doing so, Kessler will deserve credit.

No it was a close fight.

But every fight Johnson has ever lost has been a robbery

He can't lose CLOSE fights you see.

That website is weird. Does it translate automatically into English or something?

I hope this fight comes off. It SHOULD silence some of Kessler's critics, but more than likely people will talk about Johnson being old.

[The Fightfan]

Awesome fight as far as I am concerned. We will see what Kessler has and I believe alot. Then again I do think Johnson beat Dawson and has been the most overlooked lightheavyweight of recent years. He has an iron jaw and he is a hard worker something that no one wants to face. I give alot of credit to Kessler for taking this fight.

[killersheep]

Should be a good match probably closely contested. Definately a good measuring stick to see where Dawson's skills are in comparison to Kessler's.
Look forward to this one a lot. Johnson is definately one guy who has never ducked anyone.

[superheavyrhun]

This one would be a 12 round battle, and I'm certain it would be going to points, because they've both got solid chins and the stamina to go at it for 12. I think it'd be a fantastic fight, Kessler as the younger man maybe edging it. If Johnson wins, it would line him up for a last hurrah at a world title shot.

Hope it comes off and I'd look forward to seeing it happen, though according to boxrec Johnson needs to get by Daniel Judah first.

Go Kessler!

[SaltyBacon]

imo johnson wins too much workrate

[kingfrnk]

this is a fight! but i think Kessler has enough to pull out the win. but he will get roughed up.

[jangeorg]

According to a Danish Newspaper (BT), Kessler have said yes to the terms for a Kessler vs. Larsen fight in April. The reason why he is taking the fight is that, if he take the fight he can get rid of his contract with Team Palle and get a new promotor!
