    As a dane, I am getting increasingly worried that Kessler's body cannot take the training and fighting anymore. Actually, even if was on a sour note due to the eye injury, the match against Froch could have been a fine ending on his career.

    I think that he at most 1-2 wars left in him, and a total of 2-3 matches left in total (given he does not lose against Stieglitz).

    Ideally, he defeats Stieglitz, fights Bute or Froch - and then hang up the gloves. But I have a fear, that would run into a bitter career ending defeat if he continues.

    imi place pizda din avatarul tau , zi-mi cine e ? :D

    i'm agree with you that Kessler should mind his own Stieglitz fight and take his WBO title. Bute's a bigger draw than Kessler for Froch :D !

    So, Sauerland is assuming Kessler will lose the rematch to necessitate a rubbermatch? :blood

    If Kessler wins II there should absolutely not be a III (even if it's controversial again).

    Would Kalle screw his own guy over to fatten his pockets by "influencing" a Froch win and milk the trilogy out of it? :think

    I don't see any confirmation of this on the scene, is it a credible source ?

    Well he fougt Librado andrade who was undefeated at that time as i remember...
    Sartioson fought him when he was undefeated.
    Henry porras was 26-1
    in his debut fight as a pro he fought a guy who was 6-0
    And he went to austalia with an allmost career ending injury diskosprolabs(very bad injury) to fight Anthony mundine...Kessler has been in some wars because he allways was injuried...
