If you have to pick between Kessler and Taylor who is going to own the SMW division?

    Taylor really isn't even in the conversation. I'm glad the poll reflects that. This is reaffirming and reassuring...sometimes ESB gives me pause. :lol:

    It certainly isn't 'Stay at Home' Jermain. That much is pretty clear. Kessler or Froch

    Oh, David. Froch? He can probably put up a good title run but as long as MK is around Carl isn't in the conversation, either.

    Staying at home seems to be par for the course for the top of the SMW division.

    Kessler is taking an easy voluntary defense against Mads Larsen for big money that nobody except Danes will care about. This is after two consecutive fights at home against B and C level fighters.

    Froch was offered over $1 million to come to the states but his promoter is citing tv arrangements as his reason for not accepting the offer. Keep in mind Taylor used the TV excuse the first time they were supposed to fight when HBO said no to Froch, and Froch accused Taylor of ducking.

    So if you're going to cast stones, make sure you've got one for everybody.

    Not quite...

    Kessler fought Haussler in Germany last time out.

    Even though I give an edge to Kessler I thought Jermaine would get more votes than this. I think he is being underrated.

    Nobody is underrating JT, its not like he's done anything at SMW! And yes, I'd favor the robot over him!

    Robots are not nearly as agile on their feet as Kessler. He punches very straight yes but I don't see that making him a robot, just more dangerous.

    I never really liked taylor after the hopkins fights
    kessler in many ways reminds me a bit of pavlik and I dont really know why
