Kessler_Wright in the works

[intoccabile]

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.

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.

[Phil]

really not sure about this one for Kess, he should beat an inactive Wright, but theres a chance this could be a bit like Pavlik-Hopkins, can't see Wright hurting him but he sure as hell has the ability to frustrate him...

[Kirkland Laing]

This is a matchup I wouldn't have predicted. Why is Winky fighting a massive super middleweight after a massive layoff?

[ClubberLang]

If Winky had been more active I would give him serious chance with his jab and defense, but at his age and being on the shelf for so long, it is hard to see him beating Kessler, who throws straight punches right up the gut which should penetrate Winky's turtle shell style defense. I can't see anyone knocking Winky out, but I suspect he gets busted up in a wide UD if the fight happens.

[The Fightfan]

This to me is a dumb fight for Kessler. Very high risk and NO reward. What would be the deal if Kessler beat Winky. Well you beat up on an old Winky right with a long layoff and no one really want's to fight you still so just sit in limbo some more. If he loses my god Kessler was just another plodder with a decent punch. It would be better if Kessler lost then they would pin Pavlik against him. Which to me would be a good fight. Kessler do us a favor say no and hunt Jermain Taylor or Carl Froch down and challenge them.

[C-Lo]

Winky has all the boxing ability in the world but I expect he will be rusty! If not expect him to give Kessler a boxing lesson as No one could really hurt or break through the defense of a prime Winky.

I'm in with you PIYE. I would think Winky would be able to win this fight by UD but the ring rust will throw a big wrench in the mix.

Which "technical masters" has Kessler beaten "time and time again?"

[SweetPea]

I'd rather see Kessler-Taylor, but Kessler-Winky would be interesting as well. I just want to see Kessler in against a name fighter, he's too talented to be wasting his prime fighting nobodies.

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.
