Lets not beat around the bush. Kessler needs a good win against a known opponent to rebuild his reputation, and Miranda fits the bill perfecting. We'll find out how big a factor the weight was for Miranda, and we'll see how the loss tonight has affected Mikkel's confidence.
i think Miranda should work his way up...Kessler is already at the top, just below the king, Calzaghe
Would Miranda and his handlers take this fight? It wouldn't be a bad fight for Kessler to return though and he would win by KO.
only nuthuggers of either fighter want to see it. It would be a serious Hugfest for 12 rds. and rest assured it won't be for free.
True, calzaghe vs. popkins won't be pretty, but it's the only fight for joe that gives him a truly great status as a fighter 50 years from now. Joe deserves the opportunity to beat a true hall of famer and old time champ in the 175 lb division.
