    I pick Kessler by TKO 10.

    He's faster, got better movement, got the best straight punches which will punish Greens lack of defense.

    No I don't think so. Ken Hershman was a big Kessler fan, but now being with HBO and the SuperSix is over, I think Kessler has to really fight his way back to american TV.

    Kessler but perhaps only by decision since Green is now fighting at a weight that is better for him and not perfect for Kessler.

    That's a good point. We saw how going up in weight destroyed Abraham. That said Abraham is as skilled as a turtle on its back!

    I feel bad for Kessler. EAch fight could be his last one. Fighting Allan Green brings nothing to his legacy. Only some $.

    I guess it's better than Bouadla but not by much.

    If Kessler takes away Greens left hook I´d say Kessler by KO/TKO inside 10.

    Only real winner of this fight is still Sauerland though!

    i know kessler has seen better days but this is allan green were talking about here. if ever there was a fighter who found more ways to look bad and disappoint...

    kessler will win this fight and it probably won't be close. late round stoppage is likely. allan green has done nothing his entire career, let alone lately, to be rated anywhere near kessler...even a shop worn, one eye kessler fighting above his prime weight.

    Who am I picking? Kessler
    How? by TKO around 7th or 8th round.
    Why? Because he's 2 levels better, that's why! :yep
