    He last fought in October. The ringrust has to be piling on. Has anyone heard any news about him getting back into the ring? I fear he's going the way of Sultan Ibragimov.

    Yes, we've heard lots.

    Every few weeks someone posts the same thread.

    Probably appearing in court before he next appears in a boxing ring.

    Yep, not claiming this thread is original, just didn't know if anything had changed over the last few weeks. The Danish and European ESB members sometimes get info on Kessler before it appears on boxing sites.

    We heard nothing :think he's training for his defence against Perdomo or whatever, and after that he think he's out of his contract with Palle,ready to carry on with his carrier.

    Froch's promoter is in germany talking to kesslers promoter about a possible fight stagged in the UK/
    MEN arena is the most likely arena due to the stadium capacity.

    Not a peep from ol' Kess. I guess he's trying to age himself out of being competitive. Good luck to him.

    I feel bad for the guy. I can't imagine how frustrating it must be to see Froch and Bute getting press as the best SMW, while he's stuck in a legal battle with an *******.

    This is from Kessler's website, dated 4th of may.

    Hopefully I will fight the mandatory title defence against Perdomo in June, as I’m in really good shape after a longer training-camp in Spain.

    Unfortunately it is out of my hands as I’m struggling with my former Promotor and Manager, however we should be able to find a solution in the nearest future.

    [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]I know it would be a great fight as I believe that we both would bring something special to the ring. He’s a strong as an ox, but doesn’t seem to have any guards or head movement....[/FONT]

    I haven't heard anything about Kessler, but the last time I saw him he was in the back of Milk Carton.

    Yeah, I noticed that Mikkel has almost 25,000 friends. That's a lot of people to 'drop a line to'. :lol:
