      Kessler would hammer Mirandas ugly face in.

      Like I KEEP SAYING OVER AND OVER.. He should've taken the fight in the first place. it would've been an easy win for Kessler.

              Yeah, title fights always makes more sense.. But Mundine is a coward and wants no part of Kessler! Kessler beat him with a bad back in his own backyard.

              But now that the Mundine fight is out of the picture, he should look around for a new manager that could give him a good career in the states. Team Palle sucks.. Lou DiBella or Golden Boy Promotions.. I think he'd fit well in those.

                  Dawson will not, could not, beat jones in his prime... vitali is a possibility based on boxing skill and speed... i think lennox could be a disaster for roy.. probably would be..

                  its not out of the question for roy to play cat and mouse for 12 rounds... its really not...

                  but it wouldnt be a smart move to make
                  Dawson is 4 inches taller because Roy is 5'10 at best. I know that different sites will say 5'11 but i wouldn't consider them reliable sources. I have seen many of his fights where the tale if the tape had him at 5'10 and when he was on pros vs Joes and he looked like a little kid. Dawson knows how to fight tall and use his superior reach and pure boxing ability to his advantage. Jones would be in for a long night.

                  Also, take a look at every southpaw that Roy has fought and notice how he didn't look impressive at all. Even the less than average Lou Dell Valle gave him a run for his money and it would have been interesting if that knock down happened in the beginning of the round instead of at end. Dell Valle was never a force at light heavyweight nor a 10 opponent.

                  Also, post a poll on Jones/Klitschko or Jones/Lewis and see how it would be a land slide. Jones is not a heavyweight. He would have been devastated against any other heavyweight champion. Vitali and Lewis are not John Ruiz. They will not box with him, they will use their size to their advantage and back Roy up. I'd say its out of the question.

                  Have you ever seen the fight between James Toney and Evander Holyfield? Notice how when Holyfield would actually fight and box Toney in the center of the ring in those first few rounds, he would have the advantage? Why? Because Toney was not at his proper weight class and was overcame by reach and size.

                  Look at what Klitschko does to the blown up cruiser weight Herbie Hide. This is the result when a fighter is not fighting in his proper weight division and taking on a real heavyweight that knows how to take advantage of this.

                    At the minute it has to be old popkins. I would like to vote for Calzaghe but he hasnt even fought at light heavy so i dont see how you can vote for him yet. Dawson and Woods are the next best. these guys need to face each other to decide who the real champ is.
