I like Kessler I think he is very talented but the B-Hop that showed up almost two Saturday's ago would do the same thing to him IMO.
What are you talking about. First he landed plenty of right crosses on Joe Calzaghe, but I hate how people watch two fights of a guy and think they know how he fights. Watch any of his earlier fights, Kessler can punch in combinations, his best punch besides his jab is his left hook, watch that punch pick Andrade apart in their fight. Kessler has good movement, and timing. IMO he is the stereotypical boxer, he fights exactly how its taught out of the book. I think his problem with Calzaghe was stamina based, Calzaghe fought at a quick pace and Kessler couldn't keep up, but Mikkel landed the far harder punches in that fight.

Its Pavlik who is the one dimensional fighter that Bernard picked apart, Pavlik throws wide looping hooks, he basically has a right hand that he sets up with his jab, but he has poor footwork, and he's pretty easy to hit.

I think Kessler has an honest arguement in beating Hopkins, and I believe he would pick Pavlik apart.

I did say he has very solid one two correct meaning the jab and the right hand. No I have seen a couple of his fight's not just the Calzaghe fight the fight with Mundine same thing one-two,one-two.
