Abraham - Kessler

Abraham is one of my favorite boxers, but as already mentioned, stylewise this fight is no good for him. I dont think Kessler kos him, and i think Kessler will have to overcome some moments, but in the end i think he will win a UD with scores like 116:112, 117:111. But you cant rule out Abraham completely. He has the punchers chance and he may find a way to get close to Kessler and catch him.

 

The chances of Kessler knocking out Abraham are the chances of a snowball in hell.

 

I doubt it. I can't see many of those lunges working against a fighter like Kessler. Kessler will control the majority of every round, so it will be debatable as to whether Abraham won it even if he landed something meaningful when he comes out of hibernation

I might give Abraham maybe 2 rounds, provided he lands really good shots.

 

kessler

 

I took that into account, otherwise i would see that as a 50:50 fight. But chances are good Kessler can take Abrahams punch and wont get hit too often flush.
This fight has an excellent chance going to the scorecards, cause both have good chins, and both dont get hit clean easy.

 

kessler, to busy. although there's always the chance abraham catches him.

 

Kessler by ud is a valid option. AA by KO is another one, because I doubt that Kessler can run away 12 rounds. It all depends on how hard AA punches are for real. I doubt that Kessler could KO AA. If we are talking about guys that could KO AA then I prefer Pavlik over Kessler in terms of punching power and precision. I don't see Pav KO AA either.

 

I think this would be a harder fight for Kess than many are thinking.

AA has a hard defence to crack and isnt that much smaller than Kessler, I think he would land many counters on him throughout the fight.

 

As if Abraham only lunges :nut funny myth.

 

Looking at the two, Kessler would be favoured to win. He seems superior in almost any aspect. However, I don't think he will ko Abraham. Usually fighters do not even have a punchers against Kessler because he dominates too much, imo. Abraham always has a punchers chance.

 

Kessler beats Abraham by a VERY convincing UD, so would Taylor. Pavlik takes him out in about 8 rounds.

 

Kessler UD Abraham
Taylor UD Abraham
Abraham KO Pavlik

Styles make fights and Pavlik is made for Abraham just like Abraham is made for Pavlik but the difference is AA can knock Pavlik out but not otherwise.

 

yeah, abraham is a bad style matchup for pavlik

 

Quite the opposite. Styles do make fights, and AA was custom designed to get Pavlikated! He'd have to change pretty much everything he does in order to have more than a punchers chance.
