He would be mad to do that. He earns several million euros per fight (6 for the JC fight). Miranda's promoter's had a fit when he turned down less than $400k to fight Miranda! It's a different ball game...Kessler can draw over 20,000 in Copenhagen so why should he fight in the US for less money? A lot less money at that. I'm a Calzaghe fan but I have become a big Kessler fan since the JC fight. He fought with such heart it was amazing, he made so many new fans that night.
i never heard about these probhlems and i live in denmark. it certainly wasn't the reason why mogens palle pulled him from the miranda fight.
No...it wasn't the reason, but Kessler has historically suffered from backproblems...they have affected his fight preparations and ability to fight often. He fought with a bad back against Mundine, for example.
I'm officially rooting for Abraham to end Miranda's career now. His fanboys' new hobby of pissing on Mikkel has gone too far and too long. And I used to be a pretty big fan of Pantera :shock: (...before he **** the bed against Pavlik)
The nerve of the Miranda fans to try and discredit Kessler amazed me. I wasn't posting for a while cuz I was bogged down with schoolwork but I would peek at the message board here and there and I would see threads dedicated to knocking Kessler. I mean we're talking about 2 very different fighters here. One is a crude, hard-hitting fighter with very little credentials outside of knocking out some B and C level fighters on ESPN2 and a technically superior former unified champ who hadn't lost more than 6 rounds in 39 professional fights prior to the Calzaghe loss, which was no blowout. The disparity was so glaring that if people actually took the time to look they would see that Miranda had no right to talk. The whole thing was ridiculous. Kessler didn't have a belt and Miranda wasn't his mandatory. You're just gonna fabricate rivalries now? Miranda should have been focusing on trying to secure a title fight or getting another crack at Pavlik.
Kessler said that he wants to fight in USA next, train in USA to find new ways and inspiration. I would like to know whats happening ? He should fight soon, and I don't care who he'll fight, just get it on!:bbb
That's the problem! Jack **** is happening and Kessler's management deserves to be "burned alive" or for that. It's such a waste of a prime fighters limited time....an utter shame. I wish some one with access to Kessler can convince him to leave Team Palle with a thank you and :finger5 .
