Hopkins vs Kessler

Hopkins is a boring old cheatin' **** and no one wants to see his fights anymore. 4 or 5 punches a round is the best the old ******* can muster up? Faking low blows to buy breathing time? Pathetic and a true sign his days of being a top boxer are over.

 

Hopkins by UD (Sloppy ugly match)
Kessler would have his child after all the hugging that will happen in that fight.

 

No way, Kessler stays outside & outworks Popkin's for an easy UD. Mikkel would hurt the old man but there's very little chance for a KO due to the toothless wonder having a good beard.

 

i think style wise kessler whoops that ass. b-hop is one of my fave but kessler style is all wrong for b-hop

 

Kessler loses to top level fighters.

 

Well he only lost once, to an ATG in Calzagne. He actually did pretty good early in that fight too.

 

Please don't bomb me for my opinion, but IMO yeah Calzaghe is the only really good fighter he's fought. Now he has Sartison and Hausller lined up for his '08 schedule, when even after losing he was "IN" to get all the top guys 60-75 in the ring and get a STAR type career really rolling, starting with Miranda. Had he beat Miranda as easily as his fans say he would have, he would have had the keys to the Kingdom.

 

I would almost agree with that but Kessler's stock is a bit higher than Miranda's at this point considering Kessler lost by UD to Calzagne while Miranda lost a close one against Abraham & he was KO'd by Pavlik. I do believe a Kessler vs. Miranda fight would be exciting but apparently Mikkel had better options career wise.

 

RUSKULL, with your being one of the top HW analyst on ESB, would you do me the honor of glancing at the Fantasy HW tournament thread I kicked up a minute ago and popping and opinion in there?

 

old as hopkins won't win at 43 or 44 . so thats why kessler beats him but prime b-hop i think ko's him in 10

 

Thanks for that compliment, I feel so undeserving..........

Where's it at?
