Who's a Better Fighter: Pavlik or Kessler?

[!! $¡N]

Kessler is not a terrible fighter, but I think it's clear Pavlik is a level above him...

[xEDDIEx]

pavlik hands down

[Dan...]

It is almost too close to call for mine but based on resume alone I would have to go with Pavlik. I certainly do not think they are on separate levels though and am of the opinion that Kessler gets nowhere near the credit he deserves by some people on this board. THen again, I think others are guilty of overhyping him a little.

Pavlik has the better resume...but I think Kessler is the better fighter

[P4P Opinion]

Technical ability: Kessler, by a long way.

Resume: Pavlik, but only just.

I'm going to rank them as even though. Both have a lot to prove.
