    Taylor beating Kessler legitimises Taylor.

    I don't think it adds/detracts anything from Calzaghe but will certainly revise where people rate Kessler (many have him as being second ONLY to Calzaghe between 160-175)

    Calzaghe has done enough outside of Kessler for it not to knock him.

    Pavlik, well, legitimising Taylor does a huge bit for Pavlik, if Taylor shows himself again as being top notch (by beating Froch and Kessler) then it makes his performances against Taylor ranked higher and perhaps bumps in a few places in peoples estimation.

    It also gives him a trilogy against Taylor, when Taylor has WBA and WBC titles and Pavlik looks to move up to 168.

    Let's inject a little sense of reality here. Kesller vs Bute is the fight that needs to be made.

    The present ring ratings at SM says:

    1. JC
    2. Kesller
    3. Mundine
    4. Bute
    5. Andrade

    . . . since Kesller has already have Mundine and Andrade in his resume
    Bute is the logical choice.

    And Mind you . . . it's an IBF/WBA unification.

    bute would be the best fight, though I doubt bute takes the risk.

    Does he still need to fight Bute, if he loses to Andrade? Other than that I totally agree.

    I have much respect for Pavlik, but his jab is nowhere near the best in the business.

    It is effective and hides his sraight right very well. But nowhere near the best in the business, as I have said.

    If I was Palle, I would not expose him to anyone with a pulse.

    Keep milking the European market, or wait for another Rugby league player to turn pro.

    Forget Taylor or Pavlik that would be suicide.

    Id like to see him fight Pavlik.........and if by chance Pavlik destroys him and Calzaghe beats RJJ then that could make for huge public pressure for Joe to fight him........

    Miranda to see could he do any better than Pavlik or Abraham. This would be good to set up a future fight with Pavlik.

    I would bet the farm Kessler's next opponent is somebody I never heard of.
