    Kessler=Good punch, crap defense

    Kessler is a solid fighter, he is strong and he usually shows off good boxing/ring iq but I think his defense is ****. I know the man hasn't been hurt much but I have a feeling that is something to due with who hes fought. I've been watching a few fights and I just don't see enough defense to get him through the super 6. I think he can get past Abraham ONLY because Abraham is a smaller guy but I honestly believe a guy like Taylor will beat him. He should do well due to the fact that most of the fighters in this tourney really do not have that great of a punch with speed behind it. I think a guy with decent speed, head movement, and power gets Kessler.

    Not true at all. He has a good defense and never goes rushing forward without a plan. He's got some brains. If anybody beats Kessler, it will be Froch because he seems very tough and has good stamina. But ONLY if Kessler should gas out like Taylor, which I doubt. Still, nobody can stop Kessler. So I believe.

    He will beat everybody. I'd really like to see him against Taylor, since their stiles are different but still both are technically skilled. Kessler would probably stop him in the 10th. Unless Taylor finds a way to defend himself effectively and manages to outwit Kessler.

          Getting past Ward wont be easy. I'm eager to see how Abraham, Kessler, and Froch handle athletic, elusive, quick fighters.
