    Eubank schools Kessler without too much trouble.

    I think Kessler gives eubie lots of trouble, to be fair, but eubie would find a way to win.

    he would get defensive and also absorb a lot of kesslers fire, and eek out a win with devasting return shots as kess got stuck in a rut and opened up. Kessler would lose heart when he saw his usually dangerous power is not hurting eubie enough to stop him or drop him, and I suspect he would have no plan B to fall back on, whereas eubie has the heart to keep on coming back. even when eubie was shit2****, he always tried to come back at his opponent - but Kessler is moulded differently, very brave to start with but losing heart when he isn't on top or is behind.

    I'd not rule out kess though, the man was a unified champ after all. JUst he didn't possess the extra mile that eubank most certainly has.
