    I agree with the former, but what about if Bhop, pulls a, uh Bhop and beats Dawson?

    I'd be cool with Kessler vs Hopkins in the fall if Hopkins is still a belt holder. It probably wont be too fan friendly, but you never know with Hopkins, his fights with Pascal were pretty damn good imo.

    Lol at nobody voting for Green at this point. Not one. 70 votes in. I don't know if I've ever seen it. There are usually a few contrarians or trolls or diehards who vote.

    This will be a better, closer fight than people think. Kessler isn't near the fighter he used to be. Both Green and Kessler fight like robots and both are seriously ring-rusted. But Kessler's been injured again and again. Plus, Green is the naturally bigger fighter, and probably has more power, especially at 175. Of course, the fight's in Denmark, so Green's going to need a KO to win it.

    I dunno, Green's work rate is usually terrible when he's fighting someone with the skill level of Kessler.

    Unless Kessler's injuries are still a big problem come fight night with Green, I expect Kessler to have little trouble ko'ing him. If Green gives Kessler hell, or worse, WINS, Kessler should retire.

    Green's going to receive a punishing boxing lesson before he's knocked out. Kessler, so long as he's not completely done, is levels above the Allan Green's of the world.

    Green needs to hope he busted up Kessler eye and he might have a chance.

    Omg... A fight against brian magee or stiegliez was better. Why Green??? Any1 else please. Green will not land more than 4 times. Kesslers workrate, and preassure will be way to much for Green. Even at 1 poin t it wash to much for Froch and even Ward. the first rounds before the headbutts, Kessler had Ward in the corner several times. Only Ward quickness and counter ability safed him there. U think Green got thoses skills? NAAAH. TKO round 5
