Kessler is overrated

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Are you saying you've never read their posts?

Nah mate, I havent seen anyone say Kessler has a better career than Hopkins. But im fairly new here.

What im saying is stooping to their level is pretty lame in my book.

Who the hell is Dirk Diggler? I heard his name in a rap song, and I found someone on my poker site with the name, but they couldn't give me an explanation as to what it meant.

I'm dying of curiousity.

You never seen Boogie Nights? I highly reccomend it. Great film.

What rap tune was it in?

It's at the very end after they do the, "all that booty in line, when the beat breaks down two times, just grind, and if ya bring a friend then that's fine, THERE IT IS"

He was a character in the film Boogie Nights based on the seventies **** industry and the young **** stars back then, or more specifically, based loosely on John Holmes.

You mean a p4p fighter like your top 10 guy Paulie Malignaggi?

Kessler was around 12 on most recognized lists before the Calzaghe loss.

He shouldn't have been. Sure he looks good and he may yet be great, but a win over Mundine should not put you in the top handful of p4p fighters.

Bottom line is there is absolutely no grounds for Kessler to be rated so highly as of yet.

To the individual that said he should be in the top 10 or 15 p4p - who the **** has he beat? Give me one ****n name that is on his resume that would be deserving of that status.

Again, I am a Kessler fan and I think he has the potential to achieve great things, but the **** that is being thrown around in here at the moment is a joke.

I've said that. It's solely based on Pavlik being rated so high. If you compare The last 6-7 fights Kessler's resumeé can be favorably compared to that of Pavlik. Kessler has fought a string of former or future world champions and Pavlik has only fought Taylor.

And remember that Kessler's loss was to the p4p no.1 or 2. The fight itself was competitive enough despite the fact that Kessler didnt spar and fought with a broken right hand, which makes his perfomance even more commendable.

I am not questioning his performance against Joe. He fought well and with a little more experience and more variability in his armoury he could have come out on top. The point is he has pretty much no resume right now. His best win is borderline Mundine/Beyer. That is not p4p material in my book. Pavlik beat Taylor twice. That alone places him a fair way above Kessler in the p4p rankings IMO. I'm not saying Pavlik is better than Kessler, I think its pretty close, I am just saying you need a better resume than Kessler currently has to get the credit he is being given on here.
