Whom should Kessler spar to prepare himself for the 3rd of November?

Also, Joe doesn't spar so much because of his hands. But he is bound to do a bit of sparring. Whom will Joe spar and why?

 

Let us bear in mind that Dawson wouldn't spar a potential future opponent.. anyway...would he be sparring as early as a week or two after his fight with Diaconu?

I think Kessler would make a big mistake sparring with someone as heavy or heavier than himself. If I was him, I'd spar with a tall FAST partner at 160 or even slightly less...who has a good inside game. I would let him get inside and see how I cope, defensively...

I would continue to train with Bika, especially where grapling and holding is concerned - because Joe WILL use those tactics if he has to, and I am not convinced that Kessler is very good at that.

In attack, now there's the problem...

...any suggestions?

 

hmmm...:think...obviously, since JC is the best, he'll not be able to QUITE prepare for that...but he should still do his best...so whom?

 

How could you? You are Mongolian!:-(

 

On first impressions, this seems an excellent choice! The height and weight (speed) check out with brio!
