      Kessler UD, the blueprint to beat AA has been out for some time now.

        Kessler outpunches, outworks & outboxes the durable, but one dimensional, Abraham. And Kessler's too defense savy to get caught with any of Arthur's power punches.

          I think Kessler may stop Abraham.

          Mikkel isn't as fast as he used to be, but he has been looking very strong in recent fights.

            Kessler by decision. No knock downs, no stoppage in this fight. Abraham is one dimensional and short, but very tough and not very easy to hurt. Dirrell knocked him down with a very solid punch while Abraham was moving back. Otherwise, a clean punch while Abraham is standing normally will not knock him down. I actually expect a tougher fight than people think, but AA comes up short because he will not throw enough.

              Abraham is one dimensional, when he puts up his high-guard he turns into a punching bag, Kessler takes it easy

                  Ditto.

                  Kessler points. Mikkel has looked devastating in recent fights and is capable of ending it by KO as it Arthur but I think Kesslers skills are in a different league and he will plain outbox him. Arthurs defence is tight and he keeps his hands up so I doubt he gets stopped but it will be similar to the Froch fight for him. Hes not big enough for this weightclass.

                    This fight will not happen any time soon.

                    If it did Kessler should win. Big.
