    Whilst i agree that Direll would prob beat Kessler, callimg him a wimp is a bit far. He has nothing to be ashamed of. He took it to Calzaghe and i scored it 8-4, or 7-5 to Joe, can't remember. Kessler also beat Froch. How is he soft?Robotic? Sure. soft? No effing way.

      I wouldn't be surprised if Kessler gained a bit of power moving up. He was huge at SMW. Hopefully he looks good at LHW and regains a bit of his old fire. Very good fighter.

        lol.. dude spends years talking **** about ward and calling him out for a rematch then when ward is willing and able to fight him he doesnt say a word and moves up in weight. kessler is such a comedian..

        kessler stands no chance at 175 either though, he only picked up belts at 168 bcuz it was such a weak division back then. in all honesty kessler is nothing special. hes got fast hands, size and power but his skills are weak as ****. dude fights strictly in straight lines, keeps his head straight up in the air, have no inside fighting ability, cant adapt to save his life and is kinda soft mentally.

        hes always had ppl protecting him and getting him easy title fights though, maybe they can get him one now but i doubt it. 175 is looking strong and kessler is just an average fighter.

          Couple of Kessler haters in this thread but the man is a warrior.
          Twice he defending his world title against unbeaten fighters in their backyard. Nt many do that. He also beat an unbeaten world champion in Froch. He unified the division and has been a top fighter for years. Cant understand teh hate but I agree that at light heavy his KO power will improve.

            I guarantee he out boxes and KOs Green next week.

            Anyone want to bet on it, let me know.

              Yep, Duran definitely didn't bring the pop along with his weight.

              I agree with the troll that Dirrell kicks Kessler's a$$. BUT that not happening if ever would since Kessler's moved up.......

                What? Kessler looks to have a similar sized frame as Froch and Ward, if anything slightly smaller, and both walk around under 175lbs.

                Their heights are exaggerated (Ward at 6'2 lol) but the rest i imagine is legit and you can tell just by looking.

                  Kesler vs pascal/cloud winner would be fireworks.... especially if cloud won.

                  Kessler/Cloud...great great fight. Both dudes fight in straight lines, ones prefer full extension, the other will take what he can get.

                    Kessler's back is huge.

                      Chest measurement goes all the way around.... The frame for his upper torso chest/back is smaller than Froch and Ward.
