    Tyron Zeuge, Badou Jack, Artur Abraham, Andrade, the Direll brothers, George Groves ..

    Kessler has been inactive since 2013. Is it still enough for this division though?

    its no that weak a division anymore, this is the 10s not the 90s.

    He can compete but ultimately lose on gass and wear n tear.

    It's clearly one of the weakest divisions in Boxing alongside Light welterweight. The average James Degale is ranked by some as the number 1 for crying out loud! When Calzaghe, Froch, Kessler, Ward were about it was usually strong - fact :deal:

    yeah it is very weak so therefore he has a good chance. Tyron Zeuge for example he beats every day of the week.

    Kessler can't beat Jack. Not in his prime let alone now.

    Jack would have absolutely no chance against Kessler in his prime and you know it. Laughable attempt at trolling.

    You guys said the same thing when I picked Ward to pick him apart 8 years ago. Some even accused me of racial bias. You guys are reading too much into that Derrick Edwards fight. **** happens and sometimes fighters have a setback.

    Well I just glanced at you posts and you do seem to be racially biased, and a troll.
    I've never even watched that Edwards fight. Badou jack is average/ decent in every department, but nothing very good or special in any department..He's a mediocre champion who's been in a weak division and has had a close fight in every fight I've seen, he cannot win a fight against a top 20 fighter convincingly. Kessler was the real Viking Warrior in his prime, a beast.He only lost to ATG's. There can be no comparison and you know it, get real!

    I could careless about what you think about me. I call it how I see and if it displeases you....oh well. He did beat Bute and Degalle clearly by at least 3 rounds on my card. Jack has been unfortunate to be shafted by corrupt officials in the sports.

    You'll see the difference between a weak division and a strong division with what Jack achieves at light heavyweight in comparison to super middleweight. He won't do nothing!

    Whatever happens when he moves up to light heavyweight is not necessarily an indication of how weak the Super Middleweights division is but rather a reflection of how strong the Light Heavyweight division is.

    My first gut reaction was no, but after seeing some of those names... Even a badly faded Kessler might be able to pick up one of those belts.

    I hope so, imo the only elite talent in 168 right now is DeGale and he is an elite talent but not an elite fighter, Callum Smith has potential, El Zurdo is solid and Dirrell wasted his potential, that's mostly the resume of the super middleweight division that has been a weak division trough history.
