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

[ono]

Kessler is bigger, faster, stronger with much better footwork.

Mikkel Kessler would ruin Kelly Pavlik with fast flurries and wicked three, four punch in and out combos. Pavlik would not land much and take a beating a whooping.

Did Kelly Pavlik screw your woman or something. He do you get off saying Kessler is stronger. I think Pavlik is stronger than Kessler. Pavlik in my opinion hits harder than any one at 168 except perhaps Miranda. Pavlik is way better on defense and has a chin. His conditioning is better than Kesslers too. Pavlik has much greater cardio.

To be fair, he's been on his arse a few times...and almost out against Taylor.

That being said, i'd go for Kessler, but wouldn't be surprised if Pavlik ko'd him.

In all honesty i think Kesslers movement will win this fight.

He also has an edge on handspeed. Pavliks workrate will be an issue but i can also see Kesslers 4-5-6 punch salvos taking there toll on the flat footed KP.

The Kessler/Andrade fight was beautiful a real piece of art a schooling i could watch a 1,000x and not be bored.

Kessler/Andrade was a great display. I'm guessing that the people who are strongly backing Kess think he will be able to do the same thing to Pavlik. Both guys are come forward, high workrate pressure fighters, and Kessler handled Andrade with ease.

Kelly Pavlik is no Andrade. Andrade probably has a better chin, but he doesn't not have Pavlik's jab. He's not nearly as skilled a fighter.

Either way this is an even money fight. I think Pavlik would win, I wouldn't be surprised to see Kessler take it. I hope we get to see it.

Andrade has the best chin maybe in boxig since the Bronx Bull Jake LaMatta. His chin and his brain stem must be poured concrete with rebar in it.

I would not take this fight untill I was a natural super middle weight if I was Pavlik. He needs to add more muscle and along with that would be more power. Could you imagine how hard Pavlik will punch if he is Kesslers weight.
