    I am not interested in seeing him in Froch III and would prefer them to stay apart

    Kessler v Abraham could be massive in Berlin, Hamburg or Copenhagen

    Also if he moved up to 175lb a Brahmer fight would be huge

    Froch v Kessler has been done to death

    I want to see a weight drained Kessler get brutalized by GGG.

    What about a weight drained Kessler v Patrick Nielsen?

    Nobody. I like Kessler and I have enjoyed his career. Now I would like him to retire.

    This could be interesting. I also like the idea of GGG at SMW, Hopkins and Pascal at LHW. I have no problem with Kessler/Froch 3, Chavez Jr maybe as well and possibly even Bute.

    It would be a good step up in class for Degale and would show us where he is

    Kessler should fight Abraham (easy fight if Kessler is still fit) and then go after the winner of Froch v GG or Ward (if SOG can sort out his contract disputes sometimes this century). If Degale can pick up a title while Kessler is taking care of AA, then a unification fight between the 2 would be pretty big and winnable for both fighters.

    Degale would be a good shout or Abraham because i think he can win and become champion again. If i'm honest i wish he wasn't fighting on don't think he has much left to offer at the elite level. I hope he fights Abraham wins and then Retires or Abraham then a big payday against a Froch or Groves and then retires.

    He's should retire he's been a great champion with great career. Doesn't need any more beatings at top level

    I don't really want him to continue because he has been a great champion and has kept majority of the boxing world entertained with his warrior style. If he is continuing I would like to see him face Abraham. Unless he moves to light heavy and would like to see him face Hopkins which Hopkins wouldn't fight him as he is too dangerous.

    In case you missed it, he held a press conference yesterday that he's not going to retire and that he wants to face the winner of Froch-Groves (no option in my view because the winner of that match would face the winner of DeGale-Gonzalez) or Ward (who is never gonna come to Denmark)

    I'm hoping a Kessler-Abraham bout in Autumn this year.
