This is not going to be an easy fight for either fighter, I would not be surprized if both hit the canvas...and please don't underestimate the toughness of Joe C. remember he got of the canvas to KO hard hitting Byron Mitchell...sure that was 4 years ago, but still has the heart....all I am saying is that Kessler should prevail as the younger boxer just beginning his prime....the pace of the fight will be critical and Kessler should and will ahve to control the pace in order for him to win...keep Joe C on the defensive for 12th rounds...tall order but I think he will
