I can see this being Kelly's next fight when he moves to SMW, win or loose against Taylor.

Nah, thats too dangerous. I think if he goes up then he goes to Calzaghe, Hopkins, or RJ. Kessler is good enough to beat Pavlik. If he's going to lose then he'd rather it be against one of the top guys so atleast it looks better

Nah thats LHW. Kelly won't move up two divisions. Im certain this fight is going ahead. I have studied SMW for the last month as only Inkin vs Froch is certain.

To me the next fights are:
Pavlik vs Kessler
Taylor vs Mundine

They may seem far fetched but they make sense. And will make a lot more sense in the upcoming months.

This is a close fight actually.
But at supermiddleweight, I'm going with Kessler ..
UD or late stoppage.

I don't know how Pavlik would do at 168, I was very impressed by Kessler when he fought Calzaghe and I see him being too good technically for Pavlik. Kessler by UD.

Im more concerned about Taylor actually. Kelly could easily move to 168 he looks naturally bigger than Taylor. But yeh, its going to be interesting to see there first fight in the division.

I'm thinking late stoppage. Kessler is a much harder hitter than Jermain Taylor, and Taylor dropped Pavlik.
Kessler accurate hard jabs will land all night and eventually he's gonna throw some bombs.. I could see the Pavlik-Kessler fight being similar to Andrade-Kessler.. Only, this guy is not Mexican, so he'll go down eventually

Im talking about SMW. None of those guys would have a ton of trouble getting down to 168 or atleast 170. If they wont then I think Pavlik stays at MW. There would be nothing else up there exciting to him. Kessler just lost and isnt from the US while Mundine is just not that intriguing to him

It'll be interesting to see how he will take those shots because Pavlik has some trouble making 160 and that could play a factor on his chin. Moving up to 168 could help it.

Pavlik is made for him, come forward fighter who throws lots of bombs... Kessler will just jab him as him comes in, step back and straight right hand.

Both of these guys are ambidexturous I head.

Pavlik vs Kessler?
