    Be nice if Kessler could return to pre-Calz form.

    Kessler doesn't fight as well on the inside as Bika and backs off his guy when hit with combinations......Bika on the other hand never stops coming forward and doesn't have to hold a high gaurd like Abrham to get inside.

    Look, I'd like to say that Johson, Froch and Kessler are not shot, because when Bute KOs them it would look better in the fans eyes, but their demise at the hands of Bute is unavoidable, so I'm calling them shot becuase Ward's nuthuggers will do the same when Bute KOs them in devastating fashion.:deal

    AA was about to KO Dirrell. Kessler is much, much faster than AA, hits just as hard and is more skilled. Bika is as slow (or close) as AA. AA has little to no inside game and still he got to Dirrell who was running scared in the last rounds before mentally folding after AAs cheapshot.

    Bika is nowhere close to Kessler. He said so himself when he was Kessler's sparring-partner. He said Kessler was in a league of his own.

    Funny that you say Kessler is shot and that a braininjured Dirrell can whup him. Dirrells last opponent was a mediocre clubfighter. You cannot judge anything from that fight. Bouadla would have pwn'ed that guy.

    Some fans are just delusional. Just because their fighter looks good bowling over a can they immidiately think he'll do the same against the elite. SMH.

    I doubt that Dirrell will ever make it against the best. Bute would leave him unconcious as would Kessler. Ward wouldnt lose a round.

    First off the injury was likely faked soas to avoid Ward, but in the meantime, if he recovered miraculously before the s6 was finalized he faced possible legal action if he has fought before the finish.

    As for AA being as fast as Bika and almost ready to KO Dirrel......not hardly. It's true that Abraham hurt him with the KD(that was ruled a slip) and that Dirrel got on his bike, but AA is also a pressure fighter unlike Kessler who seems to try to use his reach and fight striaght up.....he is tailor made for the longer, stronger Dirrel.

    I think Kessler wins, unless he does terribly vs Stieglitz I favor Kessler to beat Dirrel

    Kessler is proven and more experienced

    Dirrel has 2 major fights, one he dumped vs Froch despite some very nice moments, the other he was way ahead but we never got to see him finish the fight

    Dirrel came back and looked like he hadnt missed a beat but that was against a guy like Cunningham

    Not saying Dirrel cant win but Kessler I think is a tricky enough vet to pull it out despite Dirrel's natural gifts

    :lol: Perfect example of a delusional Kessler fan. Kessler had to get in a brawl just to beat Froch, got schooled by the only 2 A level fighters he fought. Yet he's gonna blow out Dirrell.


    Kessler beat Mundine, Beyer and Andrade. He's a monster. :lol::lol:

    Depends on the opponent. Kessler was aggresive against Froch and Bouadla probably courtesy of his new trainer.

    And no.... AA is NOT a pressure fighter. Far from it.
