    Kessler was ranked much lower than both in the p4p ranking (not even in the top ten) then and still is today (at least as far as Winky is concerned).. Kessler is a certified nobody compared to these two, are you kidding?

        Kessler is 14th in The Ring's P4P rankings. Hardly a lifetime away is it?

          Kessler is better than Tarver and Taylor.

            Okay, but you act like this doesn't refute (at least on paper) the above comment that I was responding to, since both Winky and De la were rated much higher, and in fact, Winky still is. I'm not sure where either De La or Kessler stand now.

              HAHAHAHAHA! I've never even heard of Kessler before this fight, and surely he was never the champ of his division as these other two were, with Tarver and Taylor both beating legends along with the other top light heavys, for Tarver. Kessler beat a bunch of nobodies in a crap division. Both Taylor and Tarver were still rated higher than Kessler during their reign, not to mention were RECOGNIZED champs . Please tell me this is bias?

                Well since you have just admitted that you hadn't heard of Kessler until this fight where the hell do you get the knowledge to judge him from? Boxrec?

                  What "knowledge"? The reason I know that DLH, Tarver, and Taylor were all rated higher than him is simple....... because Kessler was nowhere near them in the rankings, hence, a nobody. He just wasn't there to see. Why is that contradictory? I'm also not the one saying absurd things, like Kessler is better than Taylor or Tarver, as that is the most desperate attempt to blow up another fighter based on his comp, that I've probably ever seen.

                  LMAO @ Kessler..
