    I like Glen. Do you think Kessler would have beat him?

    And for the record, Kessler isn't the same fighter as Johnson. Kessler doesn't have the same approach, doesn't have the same punches in his aresnal, and has a different defensive style and gameplan.

    This fight did little to change my opinion about how a fight with Kessler would turn out.

    Keep in mind, Green and Johnson were pretty much even before the KO.

    True, Kessler is stylistically very different from Glencoffe. I think these guys are one or a few levels ahead of Allan in terms of sheer toughness and physical ability to withstand punishment. Yeah, I think Kessler would've beaten Allan, I am quite sure of it actually.

    I thought Green was dogged out and was visibly hurt on more than a fair few occasions by Glencoffe, and I had Glen winning the fight up untill the stoppage. Don't know if Glen would've beat Kessler, could quite possibly have made it a war though, obviously.

    Unfortunately for Allan, he had a rude awakening twice, he's playing out of his depth here, I wish he'd move up to 175lbs, but before that.. put some weight on them skinny legs, I can't remember the last time I saw someone who had as weak legs as Allan, at that weight.

    It is glaringly obvious this is the case.

    Wlad had all the physical tools at the time but only post-Brewster has he shown fantastic ring intelligence...which in turn has made him unbeatable.
