    imo if kess gets with manny steward and changes a few things here and there i think he can still make a go of it but for some reason i doubt the guys heart and wonder if this second fight has come too soon. still im backing the viking warrior to come ut with a KO and the WBC title.

    WAAARRR MIKKEELLLL!!!
    ^^^^^^^^^^This is my exact feelings!

      Kessler is greatly respected in Europe. He has an enormous fanbase.

        I pretty much agree with everything you said here and Im also a Kessler fan, he definately showed that he cannot adjust in a fight pretty much whatsover but I think he'll KO Froch, in fact Im sure of it

        EDIT: Although I really rate Froch quite low

          Has it changed your opinion of how good kessler was? do you feel like you overestimated his abilities?

          Were you a fan before or after the Joe fight?
          When Calzghe was active, there were so many threads where people would discredit Calzaghe. I'm his biggest fan but it just got ridiculous.

            Ward hasn't won the SS yet and Kessler or Abraham are still 2 of the favorites to win it. Bute is still above anybody in the SS IMO and nothing that happens in the SS tournament can effect Joe Calzaghe's legendary, HOF career, deal with it!

              I like Kessler's straight up, can't fight inside, predictable, robotic style.
              I enjoy is polite European style.
              He needs to throw the jab a lot more, and fire off some venomous right hands not being afraid to miss a lot against the quicker guys.

              If he can do that, he's got a chance against anyone.



              WAR KESSLER.

                Every day for the last couple of years (ever since he fought Joe coincidentally) they were on here hyping him up, saying he was not just a good but a GREAT fighter, writing ridiculous essays about how he was going to be great and everyone was ducking him.

                My theory has always been that these were mostly insecure Joe fandorks that were trying to turn Kessler into an ATG to justify Calzaghe's pathetically weak career in terms of competition...

                So where are you guys? How do you feel after Kessler lost to Ward? What are the excuses? What does that say about Joe?
                One day you will wake up and realise how much time youve wasted with your calzaghe obsession, the light will suddenly come on and you will go into hiding

                Kesslers just another fighter who has lost a fight, it will happen to ward too and nearly all of them

                  I was never impressed with Kessler .I never new what was all the hype was about.It might be cause he`s supposedly a puncher.When are people gonna learn just because a fighter can punch it does`nt necessarily mean he`s anything special.Look at Peter:ALot of people were hyping as the Next George Forman or Tyson.As soon as he got a real test in Wladimir klitshko he got schooled.Same with Kelly Pavlik,Mayorga,and numerous others.

                    I agree Pavlik vs Kessler would be a war...
