    Showtime is working to arrange a SMW tournament over the next few months, including Kessler v Ward in November, Froch v Dirrell in October, Abraham v Taylor and others. Not a done deal yet, but this would be fantastic.

    the only problem is that the scene of boxing has always been a shitty ass source.

    The tourney will be all set, and then Palle will make Kessler - Haussler II.

    this **** is so silly and so far from ever happening. Complete bull****. It makes zero sense on so many levels. I feel sorry for anyone getting the least bit excited about this.

    It takes how long to negotiate ONE fight? Even if they got round one off the ground, do you think round two would happen?

    the **** is laughable. They got fights scheduled for November 2010 apparently. Fricken ridiculous. And that's just the "first" round. Give me a ****ing break! Reality check. I highly doubt anyone that supposedly discussed this **** was the least bit serious about being able to pull it off.

    And Bute is not even involved in the talks, makes no sense. I'll believe it when they fight...
