    I agree it would be the best name on his resume for sure, resume filler was the wrong term to use I suppose.

      This is getting ****** now.
      True, I hear Loeffler and GGG were the ones behind Ward suing Goosen. It's a huge conspiracy and we're at the cusp of it

        Kessler has named GGG multiple times in tweets recently. Furthermore he seems ready to go down to 160 believe it or not.

          Would probably favour Kessler against GGG. It's a completely different level of fighter we're talking about and I'd be surprised if GGG actually takes the fight.

          One guy said it was resume filler for GGG, don't know what he's been smoking but please let me know. I'd like some of that.

            it would be a good introduction to smw and probably a decent action fight. i'd prefer him to remain at 160 lbs for just a little while longer though. it would be a great shame if he was forced to leave his most comfortable division without conquering it first.

              I feel the same. This is why I want GGG to fight Cotto and then try and unify with Soliman early next year before moving up but it seems that he's starting to have no choice

It would be a shock, GGG would be discouraged when he sees how big, tall and strong Kessler is in the ring and how well he blocks/takes a punch, and how hard he hits, with accuracy too.
                This right here. People are saying Kessler is shopworn, but he's not really. He gave Froch a tough and close fight.

                  Over a year ago. He took pretty bad punishment in that fight too.

                    Sorry i can't provide you with any smoke it was just the wrong term i used.

                    Kessler would be a great name for Golovkin to beat but all i'm saying is that Kessler is a shadow of his former self and very ring rusty, still a good win nonetheless.

                      I wouldn't like to see that. I think 165lbs is the weight limit for amateur MW bouts, that would be a decent compromise imo. I think Kessler beats Golovkin.

                      Kessler, even now, is a way better opponent than Martin Murray.
                      Kessler is better than Murray but in terms of an Golovkin opponent I think Murray matches up better than Geale as he is a big, durable MW. I don't think he's ever been dropped.
