    No name in USA wants any part of Kessler, well maybe Manfredo and Miranda, but who really cares, Kessler could as well fight 2 Hausslers instead, same challenge in my opinion.
    It seems that the big fighters in USA just wants to fight each other, to keep the impression, they are the best in the world.
    What a shame :think

    Agree to a certain extent.

    Kessler wants Taylor, Taylor doesn't want him it seems and wants to fight Froch instead. But this is plainly put, there is issues with Kesslers handlers and Taylors. I'm sure both would fight each other if it was down to them.

    Fighting 2 Hausslers again even instead of Manfredo and Miranda is just bull**** a nuthugger like you wou;d say.STFU if you don't know better.If he fights another bum in march he ain't gonna get **** recognition.I hope it's Taylor.

    He'll have to play the US game, like Calzaghe did. The challenge may be the same between Miranda and Haussler but it is the first step to a bigger US fight. Kessler is big risk, he needs to develop the reward to face him and that's not only money. Bute has more chances to penetrate the US market as he is perceived to be vulnerable and more known than before since the Andrade fight. I hope it works for Kessler, a great fighter and a great man. We need to see him in big fights to know how good he is.

    I hope it's Taylor but I don't think so, they don't want any part of Kessler, the best possible mach for Kessler now seems to be Froch.

    I became a Kessler fan the night Calzaghe beat him. I think he will be the main man at SMW for some time. He needs big fights and it may mean him leaving home again in order to secure them.

    Spot on, I'd really think he can go all the way, but he needs to meet someone like Taylor, Hopkins ore Winky kind of guy to proof his talent. Miranda, Bika, Manfredo ect. would be a waste of time in my opinion.

    I hope he has some good fights before fighting Froch. Froch has 2 defenses to make and if Taylor faces him, he shall not stay champion. Anyway it would be in a full year, Kessler has to fight in the meanwhile.

    I disagree, I think he needs a fight that will help him crack America and it certainly wouldnt with a fight with Froch. Im not sure if Froch would want the fight because Kessler would kill Froch.
    He should fight Taylor... if not then Pavlik, or even Hopkins.

    Can't see Pavlik coming up or Kesslar going down. Doesn't seem like an option.

    Why not at fixed weight? Pavlik did that against Hopkins.

    Yea but I'm not sure that Pavlik would see Kessler as big enough of a name to fight at a catch-weight. Especially after being schooled against Hopkins when he tried that. Which is a shame because I would love to see the fight, but I don't think Pavlik would be up for it.
