    Kessler would take Taylor apart but it looks like Froch is going to beat him to it.

    froch won't beat taylor and i think alot of people are seriously under-estimating taylor's ability.

    i think it's very naiive of people to look at taylor's losses through blinkered glasses when the man has fought top quality opposition and made his name doing it.

    taylor - kessler is the fight i want to see but both froch and kessler haven't taken half the chances taylor has in his career combined and for me, taylor deserves to be favourite against either of these guys.

    nice comparison but hearns just have more spark but taylor is more gifted with variety of instinctive skills but they have almost the same mindset

    Taylor UD...Kessler is a euro 1-2 puncher with good-but-not-great power...Taylor's speed and athleticism get him thru especially if he gives Kessler angles...Kessler stands straight up and has to have his feet set to get off anything...Taylor and easier than people think...

    Kessler probably, Taylor may win some rounds through sheer athletic ability like Mundine but I think Kessler's pressure is too much for him. Taylor needs to stay off those ropes and keep a high guard in this one.

    Kessler knocks him out faster than Pavlik did.

    Kessler would win by a lopsided decision.
