Mikkel Kessler vs Chris Eubank

Kessler wins

 

eubank

 

Tough call, Watson was outworking Eubank in their second bout, but his high workrate was just as much, if not more, of a problem than his strong jab and boxing skills. Kessler has a strong jab as well, but his method of fighting was different from Watson's. I think I'd go with Eubank by close Decision.

 

Eubank - too slick for Kessler

 

At the ****** who picked Kessler by KO.

 

Interesting matchup. We haven't seen Kessler really tested by a puncher of Eubanks' class yet, and Thimply tagged much more elusive targets than Kessler in his day.

I say Eubank by KO until I see a few more big fights out of Kessler.

 

this is the current version of Kessler vs. Prime Eubanks right?

If so, Id lean towards Eubanks in a close decision, but Kessler could show more in his next couple of fights that could lean me towards him

 

I almost picked Kessler by KO. Late round accumulation type of stoppage.

 

Chris Eubank was a ****ing great boxer and would have no problem stopping Kessler...He was quick,strong,had a great defence but most of all had HEART.....He was nuts tho

 

Eubank close UD.

It could go either way would be a very good fight.

 

Would this fight possibly be similar to Eubank V Rochigianni?

 

No chance in hell mate.

 

A way past peak, near retired, weight drained Eubank, who took the fight at very short notice and lost 5 or his last 9 fights, one of those to Joe, gave what Calzaghe says was his toughest ever fight.

Calzaghe was showboating against Kessler in the second half of the fight against him.

I realise style makes fights, but prime Eubank is a class above the straight line fighting Kessler IMO and wins this one.

 

Kessler needs to at least have a comparable body of work. Its why the fights are fought. On paper, potential.its all hyperbole.....I will give you an example a month ago Andy Lee was capable of beating Pavlik. the Tito that fought B-HOP, Jermain Taylor and given Monzon trouble.
