    How is it that in a division full of so much potential, that just a couple years ago it was easily the most overlooked weightclass in boxing make a complete 360 turn a round and easily be one of the most talented today?

    And yet with all these great contenders out there and possible match-ups waiting to happen, that The number 1 rank easliy outclasses every single individual including rank 2-10? To the point where in this tournament before Kessler even fought that he is such a huge favorite to easily beat every single fighter with one handtied behind his back?

    All i'm sayin is Kessler ain't no Ali. The only time he's ever been tested was his debut on HBO against an oppenent who ranks in the top 10 most overrated fighters of all time in Calzaghe, and he was outclassed!

    You people need to revaluate Kessler a lil bit...
    I won't vote because the truth is WE DON'T KNOW YET. After the tournament is done ask me.

          Most proven, I don't know. But he is surely a skilled and very humble figther. He doesn't go around saying I'm the best and so on. Of course he has to say he can and will win, because if not, then he shouldn't have signed the contract.

          He is a very skilled fighter. What he does, he does to perfection. I think Jermain Taylor, maybe Direll and Ward are more talented figthers, but Kessler's heart and will to fight, is what in my eyes makes him that inch better.

          He is no ATG, not even better then Calzaghe. But he was the best SMW before Calzaghe came out of his shell, and those middleweigths went up the extra pounds.

            All I said was I think he's overrated.

            Majority of you say he's the favorite due to his experience.

            I personally think aside from Calzaghe, who beat Kessler, that every single person in the super 6 is better than everyone on Kessler's Resume.

            Didn't once say they were better than him tho.

            Hey he could win it all, I also agree he earned his spot as number 1 in SMW,

            But why does that automatically mean that when matched up against a

            Former Undisputed Middleweight champ

            Former Undefeated Middleweight champ

            Undefeated Olympic Gold Medalist

            Olympic Bronze Medalist

            and Current undefeated Super Middleweight Champ

            That he wins each and every fight?
            You just said it. FORMER and MIDDLEWEIGHT. Kessler is still the SMW champ. When they beat him, they take over his throne but not before. And don't worry I really fear that he might lose it!

              I made the Ali Comparison solely on all the hype i been seeing for kessler as of lately on here. I didnt compare their fighting styles, jus stated that I think ppl are overestimating him as if he is an ATG great like Ali.


              But you do think that Mayweather deserves a higher ranking than Pac even though his results that matters are way back. What's the difference between ranking Kessler and Mayweather? Are you having a double standard or...?

                Kessler is a good fighter/ Probably the best at 168, and this is to be seen. He isn't P4P, but he is very good.

                  Nope.

                  Kessler is underrated.

                      Kessler's best wins: Beyer, Mundine, and Andrade. People talk as if he's the clear cut #1 Super Middleweight. I know people take how he lost int equation, but whoever said he was underrated needs to get their head out of their ass.

                      Bute: Bika, Andrade, and Berrio.

                      Froch: Pascal, Taylor, and Dirrell.

                      Abraham: Gevor, Miranda, and Taylor.
