You must be Danish. You sound like Royal without the racisim.

Pavlik is taller. He has longer reach. Kessler has better muscle definition, but that doesn't always transfer to strength in the ring or punch power, i.e. Jermaine Taylor. Pavlik has better workrate. He's much more relaxed in the ring. He has unbelievable timing on his jab. Kessler has a faster jab, but Pavlik has more reach and better timing. He is one of the best finishers I've even seen when he has his man in trouble.

You can make a case that Kessler could beat Pavlik, but to say that he would ruin him and that Pavlik wouldn't land much is simply retarded.

Pavlik would break down Kessler slowly with the jab. Then he would start landing the right. Kessler would land his share, too, and push Pavlik hard. Kessler would probably be ahead on the cards after 6, but Pavlik would take over in the second half.

Kessler has much better tattoos. Very fine skin art.
