Who has Kessler really fought to earn such a high rep?

[Monkz]

Who? ok sure.. Who again?

Haha Wow...and to the other guy talking about Kessler as another Hatton and Europe doesn't have any contenders last time I checked Europe are white-washing the Americans in the super 6.

[hammerhiem]

i like kessler, nothin against him, but hes just another hatton. a belt holder fighting in europe, they dont exactly have the best contenders over there.

Err no, just no, kessler fought his first defence in the opponents backyard.

The same opponent is ranked No7 at MW right now by Ring and hasn't lost since.

Please inform me? Besides losing to Slapzaghe. Who the **** has he beat that is really an impressive win.

I got ward in a sloppy 12 round ud. Ward is an awkward fighter and will mess with kesslers one dimension of the one-two.

How about you bet me all your points, I'll be more than willing to take them.

You just said, Kessler is another Hatton?

[-Boxzilla-]

he is mainly given credit for outboxing andrade which is a decent win but andrade was being outboxed by fringe contender vitali tsyptko in portions throughout the fight and was almost knocked out by fringe contender yusaf mack.

he laid a beating on tsyptko and clearly won and stopped mack ... great examples, andrade may be crude but he gets the job done. and the way kessler beat andrade was really impressive, he out strengthed and outwroked him not an easy task ...

[Left Hook Tua]

Who? ok sure.. Who again?

markus beyer - top 10 fighter at 168 for 6-7 years , 2-time wbc super middleweight champion , has wins over omar sheika , danny green , eric lucas

anthony mundine - top 10 fighter at 168 for 8 years now , 2-time wba super middleweight champion , current ibo middleweight champion , has foughts guys like sven ottke , mikkel kessler , antwun echols , manny siaca

librado andrade - top 10 fighter at 168 for 5 years now , currently ranked #4 in the world at 168 and is scheduled to have a rematch with #2 lucian bute for bute's ibf super middleweight title. only losses was to kessler and bute in their 1st match.

I'm Sure Kessler would settle for being a 4 time 2 weight champion who was lineal champion for 5 years and beat the best (or next best as ranked by Ring)in his division on three occasions.

In fact i'm fcuking sure he would.

[JohnCIV6]

you n00b

That wasnt the question. I never mentioned ward.. Did you really just call me a noob?? Lol, fuc*kin nerd.
