    Bika is crude, Kessler would put on a clinic and maybe finish him late. Would probably be an entertaining fight though.

    Point being your not going to fight a guy that CAN(not saying that he would) shut you out and make to look bad. Dirrell has the talent to do that to Kessler who isnt a guy that makes adjustments in fights. Its not worth the risk being that it wouldnt be that much reward if he were to beat a young green prospect...

    Dirrell has a lot of talent but is so green. Wait a little bit before even thinking of someone like Kessler. It would be a disaster for Dirrell. That could ruin his confidence for ever.

    Kessler seems to be having a hard time getting anyone of note to fight him. I'd be surprised if Taylor takes him on, seems like a big risk. He'll use the "not a big enough name in America" excuse to not fight him.

    Maybe set up a fight with Lacy, who seems to be a division gatekeeper these days, can't see Froch jumping right in there with him at this point.

    I'd like to see him fight Taylor but I know that won't happen.

    Im so sick of hearing this crap....Kessler is the one that isnt really tring to get fights, he keeps talking in the media about his and that, but he isnt signing to fight...He had options that he backed out or turned them down....Kessler has always wanted to fight Hopkins, and Hopkins is saying that kessler means nothing, and its not a fight worth his time...Everyone eles is willing and ready to fight the guy, but his camp keeps making it pretty damn clear that he dont want to fight....

    When he ran from the Pantera fight I stopped listening to the "no one wants to fight me". That was a fight he should have taken. The date was set, money backed by Tv company, and hotel was set. Then they backed out.

    Bika, like Kessler, since losing to Joe - his stock appears to be going through the roof!

    People are calling out for 30yr old Kessler to fight names like Dawson, Taylor, Calzaghe 2, Hopkins, even Winky... Froch...


    Lets not make a Bika (beaten by Joe, and Bute) a "big fight" - no excuses, he's suposed to be a level above that.

    Yes Bika is crude, and right now because he just won that battle on Contender and is champ, he is popular right now. Kessler would whoop his ass the same as he would have Miranda's and be right in the drivers seat for picking up all the American fans.

    think about it though, that basically describes Bika too. (except for the KTFO part, but he did lose his big ones) This is another chance to kick the **** out of a crude, yet popular in America fighter and get all the accolades with it.
