If Kessler brings the same fire he brought to Froch, Bute is getting KTFO

    Beyer was a much better win than Andrade

    Disagree here. Andrade would have man handled Beyer, which barely made it through the first few rounds with a very green Bika. He wouldn't handle Andrade's constant pressure and size.

    Beyer was easily one of the most protected champs back then, thanks to Sauerland, nevermind the fact that he clearly lost against Lucas but was given a gift decision in Germany..thanks to Sauerland again.

    Yeah yeah yeah, thats why Beyer beat big punching D Green the now world rated CW.
    Beyer would box rings around limited Andrade.
    Beyer has victories over Green, Woodhall, Sanavia, Sheika, Lucas etc
    Andrade would have been outboxed. Kessler wasnt a nimble moving boxer like Beyer and Andrade couldnt get close. Green was a bigger SMW puncher than Andrade and brought pressure forward but was out boxed

    Beyer would get overwhelmed by Andrade. Too small for a supermiddleweight against Andrade. He was no way near as agile on his feet as you proclaim. I watched enough of his fights to know. Kessler actually had much better footwork than Beyer.

    Don't put Lucas on your list cause the fair result is that Beyer lost. Concerning Green, Beyer was about to get knocked out in the first fight before the headbutt.

    Eric Lucas by his own standards was a limited supermiddleweight but even he managed to outwork Beyer and beat Sheika too. Sanavia quickly faded into obscurity anyways...and Lucas was better than him, the Lucas that admitted he was no world beater...

    Andrade is limited in the skills department but his will, strength an size would have taken over against the small, decent but no more Beyer. For a most likely result, please refer to the Grant vs Andrade bout because that's exactly how I see it unfolding.

    We will have to agree to disagree.
    I believe the 3 time WBC champ winner of 10 world title fights and then current WBC champ was a better win than undefeated Andrade whos biggest win was probably Otis Grant and who would go on to lose to A Pryor Jnr

    I champion Froch more than most and am a huge fan and i do believe that he lost vs kessler by 4 rounds at least as some others were tight!
