Kessler_Wright in the works

[Pugilistic]

Waste of time, Winky isnt strong anough to fight people of Kesslers size and he isnt a big enough puncher or quick enough to compensate.

thats right.

Having power automatically means you win fights.

Wright may lack power but has tremendous defense, a excellent jab, a very good chin and a good left hand. His workrate is pretty good also.

i would actually pick Winky to beat Kessler had he not had the very long layoff.

i would like to see it no doubt but based off winkys long ass layoff i would have to pick kessler based off that. but if winky would take a tune up fight and then fight kessler then i would favor winky. depending if he looks good or not winning.

Agreed. The layoff is what hurts Winky here. But he's incredibly active for a guy who fights from a shell. Just look at Clottey and Abraham for example.

Winky throws a pretty staggering ammount of punches..i believe around 70 a round and is pin point accurate with his jab. A good fight, and a risky one considering the lay off.

I like Winky by SD

Winky Beat Taylor and would have got the decision if he continued to fight in the last round if Winky fights like that I cannot see the one dimensional Kessler figuring him out. But Winky needs a tuneup as with this inactivity Kessler hammers him.

The layoff will affect him but we just don't know how bad it will.

I wouldn't be that surprised if Winky won though.

no.....no.....no

Mikkel has proved time and time again he is clever enough to beat technical masters of the game through workrate and movement.

I wanna see him in with a genuine big puncher thats gonna come to fight rather than look to win a 12round decision!!!

Who has he beat that was a techincal master ?? It isn't Calzaghe because Joe won.

So i guess it's Mundine who always loses whenever he steps up.

kessler actually came out of the calzaghe fight with more than enough credibility.

Taking 4-5rounds off of calzaghe is NOT an easy thing to do and although he got outworked towards the end he was well in the fight because of his ability to not allow calzaghe to get his shots off.

How anyone would think Wright could potentially win this fight is beyond me!!

Kessler takes a unanimous 10 rounds to 2 decision!!

no way in hell will it be that wide. even if kessler is bigger and stronger he wont be able to do Winky like that. Calzaghe is the only top opponent that Kessler has fought and took punches from all angles and the only reason he won those rounds is because JC let kess hit him, Winky wont let that shit happen especially with his tight defense. if winky didnt have a long layoff i would say winky by UD.

When has anyone ever beat Winky clearly ??

I think Kessler would win but it would be close and i wouldn't count out Wright winning.

What technical masters has Mikkel Kessler beat ?

Just a link to what is probably the original source:
ESPN - Dan Rafael Blog

Rafael quotes Golden Boy's Eric Gomez, saying that Winky will skip a tune-up and return to HBO in March or April, that he is willing to fight a top opponent at 160 or 168, and that they have been in contact with Kessler's people.

Mogens Palle (Kessler's promoter) came out yesterday (link + google translate) and said that Kessler is about to sign a contract to fight in the US 3/14 next year, but that things weren't completely sorted out yet. He didn't want to disclose the opponent just yet, but it does sound like it could be Winky (who is btw one of the only opponents who would a) be willing to fight Kessler and b) get Kessler on live US tv when doing so).
