    Not if you ask me.


    - Kessler invovled in the biggest fight in SMW one of the biggest in all Europe
    - 3 time and soon 4 time world champion
    - Nielsen does not have a good coach.
    - Beat Carl Froch, and been in the ring with Ward,Calzaghe and Ward
    - Former WBC and WBA SMW champion
    - The former SMW king along with Joe C.

    I agree.. Patrick Nielsen does not have the same power,as Kessler.We don´t really know about his chin yet,he has been cut badly on one occation,but never being tested in that department...I know Patrick is young and still has several years to develop as a fighter..And i think he will do really good,but i would very surprised if he becomes better than Kessler...So it´s NO from me..

    Exactly, like Kessler he will struggle against opponent that are quick and move very well, mostly slick boxers like Ward.

    Nielsen is very quick and does not fight like Kessler.

    What different do you see in his game, compared to Kessler? But i still see him struggle against slick opponents like Ward. And quick, he's not Andre Dirrell quick, he's speed is decent, but he also lack of power. How the f*ck can you call a guy the danish / dancing destroyer when he's KO rate is only 50%

    Who is hyping him?

    He deserves the very little praise he gets. He is young, very likeable and talented and that is a great for Danish boxing.

    Everyone would struggle with a fighter like Ward, he is class.

    As for the differences, Nielsen is a southpaw, faster and doesn't fight a strictly european boxing style (that great jab and 1-2) like Kessler did at his best.

    I'm not trying to say he's more talented than Kessler btw cause he isn't but he is different.

    No. Kessler is actually under-rated these days.

    Both are overratted. Really. Kessler best win is Froch and Froch isnt really that good?

    Forch barely beat and old Johnson, got schooled by Ward, won over middelweight and done Taylor.

    Pascal is a LHW not SMW.

    But okay. Nielsen... we dont know anything about him. He gets worse opponents than Deonay Wilder.

    But i doubt he will reach very far, because of his training-team. Carsten Rowder is not a coach, that are gonna take him too world championship level. What i meant by Ward, is an slick & fast boxer

    I dont think he go further than Kessler. Does he have to do that anyway? Less would still be good. European champion and maybe an alphabet title. Who knows.

    Patrick is Patrick. Not Kessler.
