    If Kessler moves up to light heavyweight he cleans up the division

    He looked great at Light heavy imo.

    He beats dawson, Stevenson, Hopkins and even my personal fave Kovelev. I predict that if he comes back he will go to light heavy and become world champ.

    Anyone else agree?

    Kessler got dropped by Green at a catchweight, gassed against Cleverly in sparring (according to him). The money fights are at 168. I don't see him fighting at light-heavy.

    At this point I'd pick him against Dawson who looks vulnerable, probably Stevenson too but I think Hopkins would defeat him as Kessler doesn't have much of an inside game.

      Kessler would be a great addition to light-heavy but I'm not sure he can beat Hopkins or Kovalev. Kovalev may well stop the Dane and Hopkins would smother him and win a 12 round decision.

      It would be interesting to see how he does against the likes of Stevenson, Cloud, Pascal, Shumenov and who knows, maybe Bellew.

          I don't see him going up in weight with his style and being able to beat Hopkins, Stevenson, or Kovalev.

          Probably beats the rest but not sure.

            There's no way Hopkins beats Kessler. None.

                  All Ward's holding kind of confused Kessler, he didn't know what to do. He's too nice also, B-Hop would take advantage of his better nature.

                    Kessler is too passed it to do much at LHW against the top competition.

                    You've got: who all probably beat him
                    Stevenson
                    Kovalev
                    Hopkins
                    Pascal
                    Dawson

                    Then the rest: who would be decent matchups
                    Cleverly
                    Grachev
                    Bute
                    Fonfara
                    Bellew
                    Erdei
                    Chilemba
