Credible fights for Kessler; 160 - Pavlik, Abraham, Wright 168 - The other belt holders, Bika, Taylor 175 - Calzaghe, Hopkins, Dawson Wright's people have already contacted Kessler about a fight in March so that fight can happen. Bika would fight Kessler, so would Froch. Dawson would fight him as well. Hopkins said Kessler wasn't in his league. However, he also said that this is his last year in boxing and that anyone that wants to fight him needs to contact his people. There are numerous good fights out there for Kessler. A fight with Berrio should only happen as a tuneup or a stay busy fight.
I think that´s one of the statesmans Team Palle wants to make. If they cannot find a decent opponent find one that Kessler can KO in spectacular fashion. Look to the Haussler fight. No one gave Haussler a chance of winning and no one really wanted to talk about the fight but the clinical KO Mikkel came away with did create some attention. So, in terms of entertainment value, whatever piece of meat Palle puts in front of Kessler, we as fans might be treated to something "interesting".
Kessler and Palle would travel to Canada and fight Bute in a heartbeat...How long can Bute be excused as inexperienced, and still be the champion of the world?!?
Yeah because Taylor and Co. would have chased a beltless Kessler instead of Bute and Froch with a belt?
lol.you should be a detective. i was hoping for kessler to take on a big name this fight. i hope he dont miss his boat like calzaghe did. he needs to fight big names now.
Yeah, but the big names have to want to fight him first. So far the only one that wants to fight him is Froch - a lot more money in it for him. He fights in Europe in a place that would be loaded with local AND Danish fans. In the US, who would want to fight Kessler?
Wha?! When did that happen? And why would Wright suddenly decide to go from a bum (as planned) to Kessler?
It's too bad Froch-Pascal wasn't televised here; a Kessler-Froch fight broadcast to the US could have easily been promoted on its heels. :-(
Bute's trainer said Bute wants to fight Kessler. He said they've been talking with Palle about it and Bute's next fight will be in March..... I know there is like zero chances of this fight happening so soon but...
He was rocked by Sartison in the opener. Nearly touched down, before recovering well. He isn't rock, but is good enough to beat this muppet.
