    I think people should stop blaming Kessler for fighting lesser fighters. He has tried to get fights with a lot of american superstars but they won't fight him. Whether it is because they are scared or there's to little money for them is open for interpretation, and the truth probably lies in between.
    With that said I think the next fight will be a nobody or Mads Larsen.
    I hope a fight with Froch or Tailor can be made this year that would make even more interesting. Until now Kessler has only been measured against Calzaghe in his first big fight ever. His next could turn out much better because of gained experience and hopefully a more well-prepared Kessler who is in the fight beyond round no. 6. Either way it would be sad if his career ends with just one superfight.

    I see hes won a WBF belt. :patsch

    Are you talking about a Euro title? I meant he never won a world title, which is very easy to do nowadays.

    He never won a belt in his prime and now that hes over the hill, hes a good fight for Kessler?

    What!? I absolutely hate Mads Larsen, I only wanted to point out that he did hold some titles. I never claimed they weren't a complete joke.

    Winky or Bika are the most likely opponents at this point!

    OK, here I go again. Dawson is underrated, - see Adamek vs Cunningham. Props to Kellerman for bringing him up after JC-vs RJJ.
    Still thats not to say Kessler couldn't Kayo him - his chin is a bit of an unknown at LHW.

    I hope Tayor or Froch - *^¤# HBO wont show Froch vs Taylor. And they wonder why boxing is dying in the US.

    I have no idea. Im hoping for Palle to surprise me with a unification fight with Froch. Froch would be cannon-fodder against Kessler IMO, but I won´t get my hopes up..
    He´ll probably end up fighting Dirrel, Banks, Miranda or someone in that league...

    Give us a step up from his last few fights.

    Wink, Taylor, Bute, Froch, Hopkins-someone worthwhile.

    Hell, I'd be happy with Miranda, Green, or Pascal.

    I get the feeling it will probably be someone who no one gives a **** about.

    Another unknown fighter IMO. What a waste of time...

    Bika is in the picture now. At least, in some rumours.
