    Which fights could bring Kessler into top ten p4p??

    Taylor, Mundine, Bute, Pavlik, Dawson, Hopkins.

    IMO Kessler beats all of them and the only one to spell trouble is Dawson

    What do you think?

    im not really sure about most of the guys on that list. i think hed beat hopkins seeing as by time they fought hed probably be older than my grandpa. but for real, the fight id most like to see out of all of those would be kessler - taylor or kessler - bute. both would be really good fights i would think and i like kessler but i couldnt give him a 100 percent against either of those two. i honestly would like to see taylor prevail at smw.

      It'd be best if he beat all of them, which he can do. But the biggest wins for him would be Pavlik, Taylor and Dawson.

        Kessler needs to get back in the ring within a few months, or ring rust will become a problem. I'd like to see him in against Taylor, Miranda, Lacy or Mundine again.

          Taylor, thats a fight I'd like to see. Had Jermain beaten Pavlik the 2nd time around and then fought Kessler and Kessler got the win, that might have been enough to sqeeze him in top ten

            Their styles should make for a good fight, there's been talk of Kessler fighting the winner for Froch-Inkin and then fighting Taylor. Taylor would take a tune up first.

              Although it ain't gonna happen I'd go with Calzaghe again. I think Kessler would have won comfortably had he not had the hand injury that cost him 2 weeks of important sparring at the most critical time. I know Kessler didn't use it as an excuse, but thats just credit to him for sportsmanship really.

              Hardcore fans know what happened!

              Regarding your list I'd go with Taylor then Pavlik at 168.

                Clutching at straws man. Calzaghe was the better man on the night.

                I would like to see Kessler beat Joe C. If not then Mundine. Then Taylor. Then Bute.

                Reasons. Taylor is coming off two losses. And i don't have him in my top 20 P4P. Bute has beaten Bika and Berrio, and is being severely over rated. Even though i think he will be a star in 2 years, the fact is he isn't at the moment.

                Either way i don't really care. I will watch Kessler day in day out. Hes an entertaining fighter. A greats sportsman with a lot of respect for everyone.

                  Ah janeorg, long time no see. I'd hoped that you certainty losing to Calzaghe might've humbled you a bit, but seeing that you have the two best parts of Kessler's sound beating proudly glorified in your signature...perhaps not.

                  I did gain a lot of respect for Kessler though and would give him a chance against all of the fighters you'd listed. Pavlik would be the smartest fight and would certainly draw strong accolades.

                    I think Kessler is securely in the p4p top ten, but beating any two on that last would solidify that even more
