#1: Let's not forget Bika was beating Beyer when they fought...so it's hard to get to stoked on the 3rd round ko...even though I was pleased as fwock.
#2: Simply put...again, Beyer & Calzaghe are two leagues apart in all aspects...Kess'd have some trouble with Joe's speed.
#3: Joe's output could put a damper on Kessler's power.

All that being said. I'd like to see Joe unify becaues I'm a big fan of the man...but then again...I'm a huge Kessler fan...so I wouldn't mind him winning either.

So...in Kess's favor...

#1: Power & youth baby! Nuff said.
#2: Kess get's his jab going...Joe's fwocked. That jab would stop Calzaghe's flurries in his tracks.
#3: The biggest factor I think? Joe himself. Let him show up to fight the Dane half assed motivated like he did Bika & Joe is counting bulbs for the rest of the evening.

Sorry people...I wanna say that it's gonna be a pick em...but I'm leaning towards Joe & almost kinda hoping for disappointment...I'd love to see a Kessler win or maybe a draw.

I still say that Joe pulls it out.
I agree with you, the Kessler's jab will give him a chance. Joe is faster, he has better D, and has more available weapons, but I'm a big believer in the power of a good jab. I just watched the Beyer fight tonight, and that KO was classic. The right might have done the damage, but that constant stiff jab set it up. That being said...

Beyer is stiff. He doesn't move at all. He's slow as hell. He isn't creative. Peter Manfredo Jr. would beat him. Seriously.

Unless Joe breaks his hand, I think he beats Kessler. If Joe's hand isn't 100%, but he won't have the power to keep Kessler off him. Joe can't beat him one handed.
