    Kessler vs. Pavlik

    In a fight between Kessler and Pavlik who do you think would win?

    They are both very hard hitting and precise.

    And furthermore, do you think that it will happen this match?

    Kessler all the way..! He's too quick and strong, and he would knock Pavlik into the next century

    And yes i hope it happens..! However, It probably won't when Hopkins is done with Pavlik

      I dunno about the prospects of Kessler-Pavlik happening

      although if Pavlik does go back down to Middle after taking on Hopkins and faces Abraham

      he'll have pretty much cleaned out 160 (by adding the IBF title to his WBO, Ring and WBC belts)

      so moving up, and Mikkel Kessler would be 2 very good career choices once Pavlik gets by Abraham (if that bout even happens it'll have to be in 2009)

        I think Kessler beats Pavlik by virtue of being faster, with his in and out style making Kelly look quite ponderous. Probably he wins by decision, but a KO is not impossible, and Pavlik does have a chance to win too.

        I don't know what's going to happen with Kessler's career or if he will fight Pavlik. He is clearly a very dangerous opponent and there is little sign the Americans have any intention of fighting him. Since he lost to Calzaghe those who choose to do so have the disingenuous excuse that Kessler has already failed at the highest level.

        The most likely scenario I see for Kessler is that he winds up beating guys like Bute and Froch so that no-one else is really left, then perhaps he'll get a fight with Miranda or Taylor and we can see where that takes him.
