Kessler is actually winning the poll. That's good to see.
Mikkel Kessler vs Jermain Taylor

Not fair IMO. Taylor fought Hopkins and Pavlik twice. He wants to take on the best.
Would love it to be the next fight, but still thinks Taylor has to beat Froch for the WBC so Taylor - Kessler would be a unification fight.
I hope for:
Froch - Taylor
Bute - Larsen
Kessler - US fighter
then there should be some great fight in store for Kessler in the summer or fall.Comment

Kessler is good, but the best fighter he beat really was Anthony'' glass temple'' Mundine and he couldn't even stop him, so i'm not sold on Kessler yet. that's why im picking Taylor who is more experienced against better comp and is more quicker on his feet. Jermain beat Hopkins not only once but twice, and Hopkins is someone i would favor over Kessler over now and certainly the younger version that fought Jermain. Kessler is still unproven to me.

Kessler is quicker on his feet than Taylor.
Kessler's best win is probaly his dominating performance over Librado Andrade. It was on HBO and Kessler looked beautiful in there. The Mundine win was good too though.. He fought Mundine in his own backyard and Kessler had a bad back.
Taylor's poor stamina will for sure come in to play when/if he fights Kessler.Comment

How come Kessler always gets to have excuses when he looks less lackluster? i have noticed that on a lot of boards. he gets beaten by calzaghe, and hes all of a sudden has a broken left hand ect, something that hes never even admitted in televised interviews. i like and respect your loyalty to Kessler though, but i see Jermain being too fast for him. kessler has only showed true foot speed in one fight, and that was against Andrade, who is a come forward plotting fighter who is durable but no where near skilled. against the welshman, his footspeed was non existent, so i wonder how he will react against someone with actually foot speed and who is world class. Jermain might also be the biggest hitter kessler is fighting also.Kessler is quicker on his feet than Taylor.
