    Difficult, as even Joe said Mikkel would get better, ask me in 2010!

      Hopkins when Kessler stepped up he lost. I have only seen him fight once and wasn't too impressed.

        Bhop but I don't think we are in Kessler's prime quite yet.

          We've never seen Hopkins against someone that big, fast, and technical.


          We've never seen Kessler against the top class except in his loss.



          Hard to tell

            I was going to say draw, but Kessler takes on guys his own size, while Hopkins has fought alot of little guys almost his whole entire career.

              I'd love to see this fight. Kessler is a very good boxer with iron in both fists, I don't know how Hopkins can stop Kessler from throwing his notorious jab like Calzaghe did because A) Calzaghe is a southpaw and B) Calzaghe punches faster than Hopkins.

                even questioning it is a disgrace to Bernard, Bernard by any way he wants.

                  Kessler is a good fighter but Hopkins is to smart for him IMO

                    Why are we talking as if Kessler is already past his prime??? Like this is some epic battle of great fighters from different eras?

                    Kessler is prime right now, and this version of Hopkins still competes with Kessler all the way to the 12th round. It would go to the judges and one guy would win by some kind of close decision.
