I will second that. It is a tough fight for him. He should not be looking past Hopkins but instead should be concentrated on how to beat him. Hopkins at 42 and still at the top 10 on the p4p list is Willie Pep like. Wow. Personally I think Pavlik would knock out Joe C. He is the hardest puncher he will face Kessler can hit but not like Pavlik. Pavlik has better tools and foot work than Kessler and is allot ore rangy and doesn't tire. But then again he has never went past the 8 th round.
Kessler was throwing power punches all the way up to round 12. watch round 12 of the fight, it was joe's least competitive round in the whole fight. I think Kessler has a better jab and fundamentals than pavlik, but pavlik has the bigger punch.
For those who study boxing should know that Pavlik is a southpaw that fights Orthadoxed. Trust me. He is a lefty. The punch that put Taylor to sleep was a short left hand. Pavlik is the harder jabber hook , strait right, ...what ever. Kessler isn't close. Right now Miranda is the hardest hitter at 168. I would love to see Kessler -Miranda.
