Mikkel Kessler vs. Jermain Taylor in the works

[Crazylegs77]

Id like to see this fight.

Kessler would beat Taylor handily though.

What title holder though? There is nothing.

Froch vs Inkin winner fights Mundine.

Mundine will not fight Kessler.

No one wants to fight Kessler.

I didn't break it down, but with four different titles I'm sure something will open up for him. Especially considering how well he draws in Denmark. In any case Kessler will need at least one fight before Taylor is ready for him.

If Taylor picks Kessler over Jones he is crazy. Jones is a bigger name for bigger money in a fight he has a better chance to win. I don't see why Kessler would wait until late this year to take a fight that doesn't have that much upside for him either. He should be going after a title holder in his division, assuming Calzaghe vacates. I don't see this fight happening at all.

Like Ultima said, Mundine has been down this road before; Froch and Bute aren't going to be anxious to fight Kessler. Mikkel's best move is to fight Taylor, Miranda, Jones, etc. try to get to the American market. HBO want to keep him on board anyway, which means he will need to fight their guys.

Yep Kessler is stuck at this moment of time.

He will fight Taylor at the drop of a hat.

Bad move for Taylor. Kessler would work him over bad. Same thing he would do to Pavlik. But you have to give Taylor credit, he just wont take an easy fight.

I think another loss and he won't get a big fight for a while after.

I think Kess stops him brutally. I think he could even stop Kelly.

kessler beats taylor by ud or tko

This would be lunacy on Taylor's part. Utter lunacy.

taylor needs to go back to beating up jr middleweights before he tries to fight a big guy like kessler who is a top caliber fighter.

i would take kessler in either a late round stoppage or a wide decision, going off their last 4 fights, and style wise.

these two actually match up good when they're both not tattered from their last fights. a little bit of rest and a tune up fight and they would have a good technical battle but i would still favor kessler.

but if taylor is going to take this fight right away, he's losing his mind and then it would look like dibella is going to try and cash in on him as soon as possible before taylor is damaged goods. that is the first thing that comes to mind when i see fighters lose and go after tough fights right after their loss, the promoter is just trying to squeeze out as much blood money out of his fighter as possible, and dibella is one of those types..............

style verses style and skills verses skills and overall physicality, i would say it's kesslers fight at super middle weight +.

good fight, kessler should win it. taylor should fight a few before taking a fight like that
