Bute lowballed Kessler!

Why do you come back at this?

At the very least, Kessler look bad, so why do you come back at this?

Let's go back to facts:

1- Interbox indeed send an offer
2- Kessler's team refuse it without giving any counter offer
3- Kessler's team prepare Kessler to a righty fight even before answering Bute's team about their offer
4- Kessler's team pay 80% of the purse to Steiglitz in their fights. So if Kessler get 1M$ Steiglitz get 4M$.

So we cant know for sure of what happened, who says the truth and all, but as I said Kessler look bad in the better case and his team duck Bute in the worst case.

 

I spoke to Kalle Sauerland this saturday and according to him Interbox' offer was ridiculously low in that way saying they weren't really interested. Sauerland said they werent really interested and he wasn't interested in showing them his numbers at this point in time. He understood Interbox completely as Sauerland themselves was in a build-up mode when they had Sven Ottke. Today its Interbox who's the new player and they need/want to keep their asset as valuable as possible for as long a period as possible. He said it without any animosity whatsoever. He understood and understands the business completely.

 

What I've heard from a close person to Bute when he was in Romania for the Mendy fight it was that the whole offer was not less than 2 mil(750k Showtime+ 100% Danish ppv + % of the ticket sell)

 

This!

I'm glad to see that team Kessler is coming back without any new information, meaning they never really were interrested in fighting Bute. Crying everywhere "their offer meant they didn't want us, their offer this, their offer that", but no amount of $ anywhere, no argument on what is "low-balling" according to Sauerland.

If 1.3M was peanuts for Pavlik, I'm still wondering what Danish Krone means for Kessler?

 

Yeah. Sounds like the numbers Bob Arum gave. Offering 750K + his own domestic TV money is laughable. If Interbox offered that with a straight face they are delusional.

 

For a Kessler vs Bute the Romanian (non-ppv) TV money would be around 300K. I mean such a big fight would make it to PPV right, in Denmark. I'm thinking in the worst scenario the Danish PPV money would be around 600k. Not even adding the % of the ticket sell the minimum that InterBox could have offered was 1.35 same as Pavlik. In my oppinion that's not a joke of an offer that you can't start a negotiation over it. And Kessler is getting 1.4 mil against Stieglitz.

 

Kessler has fought Calzaghe in the UK, Ward in the US and Froch.

Bute has fought nothing better than B-level fighters in Canada.

Who do you think is the one that is not willing to make the fight? Time for Canadians/Romanians to wake up and smell the coffee. The proof is in the pudding.

 

you got a nice ass cloudgirlz :hey

 

Bute and interbox are a pack of lying bitches.
For 3 mill I got no doubt that Kessler would of fought bute on the moon.
+He would bust that Romanian gypo.

It's amazing how ever offer bute sent to Kessler / pavlik hasn't been enough.....

 

In the same interview Kessler said that Bute's offer was a clear indication that he had no interested in facing Kessler. it must have been extremly low.

Bute's lose as he is the guy starved of credibility in one of the most talked about divisons in boxing over the past 2 years.

 

id like to see kessler smack bute in the mouth, if not kessler then the winner of the super six surely will do it but im sure they will have to travel to get the fight, if its ward they will just have to meet somewhere half way i guess

 

Mark my words, Bute will never fight Andre Ward.

 

Why do people give Bute the benefit of the doubt in this matter? It's illogical.

 

Because they are from Romania or Canada. Simple as that. :smoke
