    How do you see Mikkel winning, how do you see it playing out?

      If you think Ward will win because Kessler has a weak resume you're way off.
      Stylistically how do you see it playing out.

          It is pretty close to impossible though.

          I would be beyond shocked if Ward dropped Kessler.

            The thread was just for fun, I dont naturallly see a K.O. but how do you see it playing out, if you can give an analysis.

              If a bum like Darnell Boone can floor Ward so will Kessler rip his head off

                The fight will probably start off slow with both guys trying to see what the other has for a few rounds.

                Gradually I think Kessler will take over using his jab and 1-2 which will be surprisingly fast for Ward.The whole size and strngth or Kesler will probably be too much.

                Kessler has a good defence and a good chin so unless Ward unloads combos on him which I don't really see.

                Not really sure.Will have to watch tape of both when the fight closes on to make a sure prediction and play it in my mind.

                  I never actually said Kessler would win. I havent really analysed it yet but my early pick is Kessler UD but I think Ward is a dark horse in this tourney and could spring the upset. I just didnt understand where you were pulling a KO from.

                    Then every fighter that he faced should have at least knocked him down by that logic sir.

                      Kessler had a really solid chin. He's an underrated fighter all time. His only 3 losses have been to the GOAT Joe Calzaghe,the brilliant Irish Andre Ward,and Froch.
