How many of these boxers would you pick Kessler to beat?

I'd favor Dawson, give Taylor even odds and give Hopkins and Pavlik about 40/60 odds. He'd dominate Winky and Roy boy - too much reach for the Winkster to fight using his game plan, too quick for the shaky looking Jones.

 

Those dudes would beat the **** out of Kessler.

 

I think the only one to spell trouble for Kessler would be Dawson. Chad has tremendous amount of talent, and is undoubtedly going to become a major factor in boxing.

As it is, I still feel that Kesslers experience will become the deciding factor.

So my answer is: Kessler would beat all of them.

 

Quite frankly, I wouldn't give him too much credit for beating those fighters. Only Chad and of course Calzaghe. The others are either way-past prime, and/or smaller.

But thats just me - the wide public would give him tons of credit for it, because they just look at names, rather than their current ability or optimal weight.

 

I guess that's his plan :good

 

So far everything is going according to plan - however the biggest obstacle is just around the corner, imho.

 

i would pick him to beat pavlik bc i think he may be overated and i would favor him over rjj but wouldnt be surprised if i was wrong...i would pick the rest to beat him and would have alot of confidence in saying dawson would beat him decisively. maybe hopkins as well

 

Roy Jones Jnr (175) A prime Jones would win easy
Winky Wright (168lbs) His best weight is 154lbs

 

Dawson is the only one to spell trouble for Kessler.

According to Flod Mayweather SR - Kessler would propably win though

 

Though I have little respect for the Mayweathers' - I do find that as a pad on the back.

 

Absolutely none, I'm sorry and I have nothing against the dude... Does that answer on Kessler's chances against Calzaghe or was not that part of the question?

 

So you don't even think he can beat a guy who fights at 154(Winky)? A guy who struggled with Soliman, who in turn got KTFO by Mundine, who in turn got schooled by Kessler?

Fair enough. You will learn soon enough.

 

God, Dane, he could beat all of them but I don't think he would... Winky is a star at the Global level and he is favored to win against whomever ( there are people who believe he beat 170 pounder Bernard for a 175 pound title), it doesn't have to do with his natural weight but with his difficult style to fight against... As far as I know Soliman was caught by Mundine at 168 and Winky beat him at 160 for the right to face Taylor and drew with Jermain, Kessler "schooled" Mundine sometime before, these are not straight lines or are they?

If you don't think it's fair, then why is Bernard calling for Joe in the Yankee Stadium and not for Mikkel? That's right, cause Joe is the door to bigger fights for Mikkel and Joe wouldn't need him or Lacy to get fights with the ones mentioned in this thread... Tell you what, if Mikkel wins, I'll learn and join his bandwagon too, fair enough? My respects
