    Not, who you want to see him fight but who he will actually end up fighting next.

    Had to leave out some names because the poll only can handle 10 options

    Well ofcourse id like to see someone worthwhile but I see a couple more standard defences for Kess.

    He needs to keep busy, fight staleast 3 or 4 times a year to keep people talking, fans forgive a dodgy oponent if they fight regularly.

    I think we can see him in with a Larsen. Miranda would be a good fight to make Kess look good and to shut a few kiddies up.

    Ofcourse Taylor or a unification are the best options for him.

    The sooner he leaves Palle and signs for GBP the better.

    He's only unknown if you don't know him. And you would know him if you have followed the 168lb division for a while.

    They used to train together, so at least Kessler wont go "Sartin-who?"

    He is a poor man's Calzaghie. a very tallented fighter who takes on less than the best comption even though he has the skills to beat them.

    It'll be another unknown fighter in my book. It is not a criticism, but a lot of uncontrollable variable seem to scupper his progress. It is a shame because these are his prime years, Froch is in his pomp, Pavlik also, Dawson coming into it at 26, Talor should be atleast physically, Abraham seems like a warrior, Johnson. But some £ssho3e like Palle, Hennessy or King will not give fans what they want to see.
