    has Kessler ever faced a real pure "boxer"

    like the type of fighter that uses alot of defence,
    and sidesteps, slips, and counters,

    im only asking because im watch lots of his fights to see how good
    he really is, so far i gather that he is very good, against guys like andrade,
    Siaca, and beyer,

    beyer had a little ability, but didnt throw much,

    has he ever faced a real natural boxer???
    if so, please upload video.

    also note this is not a hate thread,
    just a question.

        wrong, andrade cant do much of that, and he's still a good fighter

        true, i forgot, except mundine didnt have the speed or countering abilities to beat kessler, but your right in a way.

            I'm not as confident as most by picking Kessler and Froch over Dirrell and Ward. But I'm confident to pick AA over Taylor.

            Ward is probably the real deal. I'm high on Dirrell too. But I love Kessler and I'm a fan of Froch to. Not Froch style, but him wanting to prove he is the best

              Dont see Kessler winning this to be honest. I have got Froch to win against Dirrell and Taylor to beat Abraham

                As Flawless said Mundine is probably the slickest of the opponents Kessler has faced.

                Honest question as I know next to nothing about Ward: Has he ever faced anyone with a good left jab and how would you rate his chin?

                Can you recommend me a good Ward fight where I can gauge his skill so I can judge him fair?

                  im a fan of all of them, and each man has the abilitie's to beat the other, thats whats great,

                  as for the dirrel vs froch fight, i havent seen many think dirrell will win, i do, because dirrell can outbox froch, he really can, and dirrell hits hard, he might even stop froch, but he's got to make sure he doesnt get into a war with froch, because he will lose.

                  and andre vs kessler is very interesting, i was hopeing ward would fight AA or froch first to get more expireance, but he's gonna fight kes first, personally i think there the 2 best in the tourney, i dont have a clue who will win, but something tells me ward will find a way.

                  with that said, i dont think any of the 6 fighters will come out of this thing without a loss, i think they'll all lose at some point at least once.

                    Maybe the miranda fight dude?
