Lucian Bute's sparring partners training for Andrade !

I think Kessler would stop Bute, and would come close to stopping Taylor as well.

Pavlik has the power to gain his respect and force Kessler to work behind his jab a bit more than usual rather than letting the right hand go - but still see a close but clear UD in Kessler's favour.

 

Come on man,he would lose to at least one of Bute,Taylor,Pavlik and ofcourse he would have a beter chance,like Joe said after the fight He will only get better while I get older

 

Bute simply isn't good enough

Taylor seems to me to lack motivation these days

Pavlik is too one-dimensional

 

I think Kessler would stop a prime Tyson and a prime Sonny Liston,come on man,Kessler has no better power than Bute if not weaker,did he ever stop anybody good?

 

I've seen Bika, Tatevosyan, Toney, Joppy I think. And rounds from Wiggins, McCrary, Berrio, Pascal Service, Salem and Marks.

And btw, Kessler was competitive with the 2nd best fighter in the world. He's also beaten Andrade and Mundine which is more than Bute has done. Other names worth a mention are Markus Beyer, Eric Lucas, Manny Siaca, Henry Porras and Dimitri Sartison.

 

Exactly that reason.

You can make fun of me all day and night if he gets his ass whooped by any of those guys, but I'll stand by those predictions.

Oh...

Kessler 120-108 Froch

 

Of the three I agree on Pavlik and I don't know how Jermain will do at 168 but Taylor and Bute on a god night defeat him

 

Has Bute ever stopped anyone good?

 

The guys on his resume he beat named Beyer and Lucas were some shot guys instead of the good versions,the rest I agree were good wins and his resume is presently better

 

I think you need more than power to beat Kessler, you need a style that is awkward and the ability to switch tactics.

Take into account the fact that he is a very good technician and has a decent beard - and he is the nadir for most of the leading contenders at 168.

Kessler vs Froch well........

Probably 116-112 to Kessler, Froch isn't proven at the elite level, but I feel at 168 he is more competitive than Taylor and Bute

 

I didn't say he stopped anyone good,his gameplan is to box and the KO comes or not,I said it many times that his power is about average and Bute KO ratio is slightly better than Kessler's

 

You forgot Kessler KO 1 Wlad:deal

 

Iagree on how to beat Kessler,you described a little Bute.The end part is unproven yet

 

At the end of the day Wlad would probably stop Kessler in the mid rounds once he gets past his jab.

I am not that disillusion about Mikkel's abilities.

The one guy I think will cause him a lot of trouble is Dawson, if he manages to keep his shaky whiskers out the way, which is a big if.

 

At the end of the day Kessler is the best p4p fighter outhere.I mean Roy Jones ain't got **** on him
