    Since Kessler seems to beat the world lately... how does he do vs Spinks at 175?

    Hey, the way this forum is, I wouldnt be surprised if someone seriously made a thread like this. I got Kessler by SD over Tyson

    X and his love for mismatches, or mythical matchups with obvious winners.

    I can understand it if X hated Kessler, but he likes him, so I don't get this one.

    Size alone makes this a no-brainer. THe fact that spinks was immensely skilled at 175 makes it more obvious.

    I think what makes it the most obvious is the infamous "Jinx". Kessler would be flat on his back in under 6 rounds.

    The size difference isn't that large. It's a one weight division difference, and under different weigh-in rules.

    Spinks's height and reach advantages over Kessler aren't large either.

    It's a matter of Spinks being an ATG, one of the more adaptable fighters you'll see, and Kessler not proving to be on that level (nor does it appear that he has a style advantage to make up for this, either).

    Kessler has never fought at 175.

    Stupid question (until he does at least).
