Kessler vs. Sartison

Does anybody know if it will be broadcast Stateside.
Off on holiday next Saturday and want to Tivo it

 

I have no idea about Sartison.

So I will go with Kessler wide UD....

 

I expect that Sartison is in for a loooong night! I think he will cover up for the first couple of rounds, and being slowly picked apart by Kessler´s jab and straight punches. I think it will resemble the Kessler - Beyer fight, with Sartison getting stopped in the 6th.

I rate Sartison as a B-/C+ level fighter, and Kesslers is known to handle these kind of fighters with ease!

I can not see how Sartison is going to win a round in this fight! His reach is poor against a guy like Kessler, and his pressuring is nothing out of the ordinary. A lucky punch is all he can hope for in my oppinion!

 

i go fo early ko to kessler. he has been trained by Jimmy Montoya
this time, and he has worked on kesslers amount of bodyshots and tryed to make him a bit more offensive in his style. that and kessler wanting to proof him self once again after his defeat makes me belive sartison are in **** to his neck! but i havent seen the guy fight so im looking forward to seeing it on a big 50" plasma with my friends and a lot of nice cold beer :-D

 

How many people have actually seen Sartison fight?

A prediction is pretty pointless if you haven't. With that in mind my pointless prediction is a kessler KO in the 5th. :nut

 

Well. The situation is pretty clear. Either Kessler kicks Sartison ass big time or Kessler is pretty much done in boxing. That's what I hear from the Kessler camp at least.

 

Couldn't vote. You left out "Who Cares".

 

Useless fight for Kessler. Whatever bout he chose to accept, he would have been given a title by the WBA so why not fight someone meaningful that will move his career on? Stupid moves from Palle in my opinion. If I were them, I would have done all possible to get Jermain Taylor across to Europe. If not Taylor then there are many other credable names to fight at 168: Miranda, Bute, Froch, Inkin etc..

 

That is the rub. Had Palle been more patient, the Miranda fight would have ended up being a title fight anyhow. Could have saved himself lots of grief. I can't believe this fight will bring more money that he was going to get for the Miranda fight. Plus the exposure stateside could have meant more $'s in the future.

 

You do. Why else are you here!

 

Mundine has not given up the WBA supermiddle title and wont for the next 2 fights. This much i can guarantee

 

I only follow 168 because Pavlik will eventually move up. So, I care about Kessler in so much as it might affect Pavlik some day. This fight tells me nothing. Gift belt match. Nothing more. So, I really don't care about this fight. Miranda would have been a common opponent. Then I would have been VERY interested.

 

UMMm..... I thought he already vacated. How can Kessler be fighting for that title if he hasn't?
