Wasn't he supposed to fight Stiglitz? Did I miss something here? Damn, ducked Bute and now moved right out of 168.

Pretty interesting fight, I think Kessler breaks Green down and he mentally unfolds getting tkod late.

Was in camp with Green a few years in South Florida and I always expected more from him. He seems to be the type of fighter who often left his best stuff in the gym. Him and Kessler were supposed to fight a few years back as part of the Super Six but I think Kessler had an eye injury. Interesting fight and I'm hoping Green can give a good account of himself...

Allan Green? Oh well, I'm just waiting for Kessler to get back in the mix, hope we eventually see him rematch Froch.

you bet

late stoppage

i think kessler's slowed down but he's got the sort of style and power and chin that will last for at least a few more fights.
green's handspeed and length and big steps will give him a bit of trouble for a round or two, but i expect him to be putting the leather on green after a few rounds.

i'd love to see him bust some of the rust off with green (and bust green up,) and then maybe fight dirrell, johnson, rodriguez, or froch again

I hate this fight with every fiber of my being. Allan Green is the biggest mental midget P4P. Also a world class excuse maker.

F##k this fight.

Can we place bets on who pulls from the fight first?

he and khan top the bill

lopez made a good push recently with his accusation of gambling addiction on the part of the referee.

You'd put him above Judah, Ortiz?
