Kessler: I fight like my (inspiration), De La Hoya, only I'm bigger & stronger!

[Wacko3205]

I am sure that if Kess wins another strap or inherits one that is vacated then he can stay in Denmark & earn much cash defending his straps just as Joe did.

The thought depresses me deeply Wack.

Mind you, on second thoughts, Adamek himself is a European. Woods, im sure, wouldn't mind a trip to the land of Carlsberg and Dawson might be considerd ellite just in time for Kessler to find his own "career defining fight".

Good points. I hope & believe that Kessler is the real deal...but we'll just have to see. He could comfortably move up to face the above names & I'd tip him against all of them.

I don't see Dawson being able to stand & trade with Kessler & Kess's jab has been a bit of a pickle for most men up to this date.

That's the thing, Kessler's skilled, but like ODLH he's not unhittable, he's not Pernell Whitaker or Floyd. So how good of a chin he has will make a big difference, I mean Oscar's very skilled but having a great chin took him to another level, cause he's been hit with some hard, flush shots over his career by good punchers. Everything looks good for Kessler but it will be interesting to see how he reacts if he starts getting hit by a strong puncher.

True...but then who is at 168lbs or even 175lbs.

Kessler's proven that he can box & that he can crack...now he has to have his chin properly checked...& he has done that also...but I'd be curious to see how it fared under the repeated shots of Calzaghe.

Mundine hammered him & Beyer touched him...but no one has really shaken him.

I want to see him shaken & stirred only to come out on top.

when I'd browse this forum I'd see this person named royal and all these other people claiming kessler in god-like status and i really dont like him anymore because of those "fans" nothing to do with him, but it makes me wanna see him lose so they will go away...

That's a shame...it really is because Kessler's damned entertaining. I never NEVER let anyone make decisions for me...no matter how much they try & hammer it into my head.

Not at all. ODLH only had one hand. I believe his athletic abilities have more to do with it than his skill, but he has been getting better. I don't think Mayweather is better than Roy Jones Jr. at least I don't think he would beat him p4p. I know your joking, but I am serious Kessler is very good. Look how he did against Mundine's speed. Look how Oscar did against Gatti even. IF he didn't have his chin he might have lost that fight. People don't take into consideration how important things like speed, and power are.

Some good points here...but not on the Oscar factor. Kessler isn't the better boxer by a long shot.

You can't compare the Oscar now to the Kessler now because Oscar was in his prime long ago & Kess is just reaching his now...especially on the laundry list that he fought making it to the top.

Kessler is good...but he aint Oscar.
