What are people going to say when Green beats Kessler's ass? Kessler won't be able to beat Green on the outside. He'll have to force his way inside, like he did against Froch. And he ended up looking like a mutant at the end of the fight he allegedly "won."
Well... If Green beats Kessler I'm gonna shut my mouth... If Green is dominated by Kessler will you shut yours??:think (Guess not)
If Kessler dominates Green, I'll have to reevaulate my perspective on Kessler's skills and ability. But likely, as long as both men come in good condition and ready to fight, it will be a very difficult fight for both men, especially Kessler who has a grueling war ahead of him. He may even win the fight on workrate or corrupt judging, but it will be him that has to make the fight and him that will look worse at the end of it, similiar to his performance against Froch. There are some differences though, Green has crisper, sharper punches, and slightly better defense, but he is also less willing to engage in a grueling fight. Then again, it's like he hasn't been knocked down before, and he does have something to prove. Both men need distance to operate, but Green's slight reach advantage, and his style will give him the advantage at a distance where Kessler is most comfortable. Kessler will have to force his way inside, but he still needs range to operate, and unlike Ward who managed to completely smother Green, against Kessler Green will have the opportunity to unload lethal left hooks and uppercuts. It's a dangerous fight sylistically for Kessler. If he wants to win this fight, he's going to have to give it his all.
