A definitive answer.....Kessler vs. Pavlik

[El Kabong]

I think Pavlik wins by stoppage....I think a fight vs Hopkins will be a tougher test than Kessler and allow me to explain.

Bernard Hopkins #1 has never been stopped and he has fought very good fighters #2 is a cagey vet he has little tricks he uses that nobody as young as Kessler knows about, and #3 he's got legitimate power and every Calzaghe fan knows that...Joe might have been off balance but he got dropped by a so called "Old Grandpa".

Mikkel Kessler is a tough guy I think his chin is good but as good as he may be he's not tough the way Pavlik is....Kelly took shots from Edison Miranda better than anyone else has. Kelly has fought better competition more consistently.

I think it's a pick'em fight but with Kelly's experience vs good solid boxers AND huge power punchers I think he has the best chance of winning providing the fight happens.

Sure would love to find out, should be a great fight. Pick Kessler at the moment, Pavlik is largely unknown at the weight, I think he'll still be powerful but not with the advantage he has against his fellow Middleweights.

A dead heat.

I sure hope HBO are reading this!

I like Pavlik quite a bit,but Kessler would murder him,and if he didnt,he should retire immediatly

I think Pavlik is made for Kessler in a way.

Kessler seems to have extreme accuracy and great timing along with some very tidy footwork.

He's also a big lad for a Super Middleweight.
