    Who wins?

    Assume for argument's sake the bout takes place at 175.

    I'm struggling with being a fanboy for Kessler and reality, how well would his chin or body hold up at 175.:think Remember Joe hurt him pretty bad to the body. Barrera most likely hits far harder than Joe.

    Barrera doesn't have Calzaghe's chin. Kessler stops him late.

    Yeah but that was from accumulation, not like Joe simply wound up one big liver shot and had Kessler in bad shape.

    The Cuban doesn't have Joe's engine.

    it depends if you mean one armed Kessler after round 5. barrera would have enough for one armed Kessler for sure, many could beat him like that.

    Plus with hometown judges and ref to keep you safe as Joe had for all two of his tougher smw fights yes barrera easily gets a UD.

    I don't think Barrera would however be prepared to wait 11 years on the sidelines for someone with the major smw titles to get injured like cowardzaghe did, fighting weaklings largely for 11 years till the chance camer along

    I really dunno.
    I'd have to see Barrera against an actual legit opponent before I could give an educated guess. But that would directly mean the upcoming Ward fight, wich would answer a lot of questions at once.

    uninjured Kessler beats bareera but one armed Kessler, barrera along with many others will be able to beatdown kessler.

    Is this a legit question? Barrera is rubbish. Kessler destroys him
