Good enough I reckon. Curious to see how many runs around the tracks the old horse has left in him.
Hey wacko, I've only seen one Kessler fight in full and that was against Mundine. Have to say I was impressed especially seeing as he went over to Mundine's back yard to fight him. To be fair though he probab;y knew that as most Aussies hate Mundine with a passion that he would probably have 50% of the crowd with him anyway

But seriously Mundine is a slick boxer. He boxed rings around Danny Green which leads us to Beyer.

The only two Beyer fight's I've seen have been against Green. The first fight he got beaten up so bad that it would have been all over for Beyer if the German officials hadn't found a way to disqualify Green and save their man on a technicality. I don't know if you've seen that fight but Green was serving up Beyer's ass to him big time.

The rematch I and probably everybody else expected Green to kill Beyer but Beyer boxed really well and took a deserving victory. But and it's a big but, when Green finally did open up in the last round he floored and nearly finished Beyer.

I really don't see anything special in Beyer at all. He's smart and got heart but he doesn't seem to have a big punch and I'm not sure how well he can take one.

I think Kessler will no doubt be a huge favourite especially as he's the home fighter but, and it kind of sickens to me be in support of a German but Beyer is such an underdog that I want him to prove everyone wrong.

I really doubt he can but maybe just maybe if he fights a perfect fight like he did against Green the second time he may just be able to frustrate Kessler and edge a close decision.

It's unlikely but I'd like to see him do it becuase he probably gets the least respect out of any world champion fighting right now.
