    Kessler Tko 9.

    Kessler is way superior to Pavlik. Pavlik may have an edge in power, but everything else is Kessler's.

    Not a good fight for Kelly:deal

    Kessler would completely demolish Pavlik, probably worse than Calzaghe or anyone else 160-168.

    Again I'd have to favor Pavlik's opponent. Kessler already showed us how well he deals with pressure in his fight with Andrade. Besides that, I'm not sure if there's anything Kelly does better than Kessler. They're pretty similar.

    And the almost equally open Pavlik will not take Kessler's shot anywhere near as well as Andrade.

    Pavlik takes out Mikkel Kessler.

    Taylor is leagues ahead Kessler, and as everyone witnessed on Saturday night, a prime and focused Taylor is arguably one of the most dangerous middleweights of all time.

    The fight between he and Pavlik could have gone either way.

    Anyway, the point is Kessler.

    First of all aside from Mundine, (who?), who has Kessler beat? Not only that, but who has Kessler beat that could compare to a guy like Pavlik?

    Kessler is good in a conventional way, he has a good jab and a good right hand and his height and reach has given him a boxer's advantage over an overrated division.

    Kessler lacks many of the things Taylor has though. I'm using Taylor as an example because Pavlik just beat him.

    Taylor is faster, hits harder, is more elusive, has big stage experience, and has a more diverse arsenal.

    What does Kessler have on Taylor?

    When concerning Pavlik, he has just as much headmovement as Kessler, (little to none), hits much harder, puts his punches together better, A BETTER FINISHER, and has big time experience.

    Kessler will get backed into a corner and knocked out.

    The most difficult opponent for Pavlik is Taylor.

    People use Andrade as an example of how Kessler deals with pressure?

    A guy with no punch, that uses his chin as defense, and has no idea how to corner a fighter?

    Are you ****in kidding me?

    You supermiddleweight guys reach when you talk about your fighters.

    BTW, Pavlik would likely KO Lacy too.

    What makes you think Kessler would win?

    Pavlik is taller and rangier than him.

    Kessler is already negated since all he brings to the table is reach, height and a 1-2.

    His footwork and headmovement is no matter than Pavlik's nor does he punch as hard, and he definitely hasn't fought anywhere NEAR the level of competition especially at such HIGH EXPECTATIONS.

    So what is special about Kessler?

    Kessler has the best Jab in the game today

    Pavliks power comes from pressure, Kessler's power comes from Countering

    Pavlik's style fits Kessler's

    Erase Kessler, insert Pavlik. :D

    Not really -- Pavlik is a ood come-forward guy, the kind the public's love (as do I), but he's very vulnerable. Kessler has fewer holes in his game, is more versatile, and thought both are conventional, has a more varied offensive arsenal.
