But he still expects a fight against Perdomo? Hell, that means Sauerland have already booked a stadium and everything if it is to happen before the Ward fight...
Are those qualities required to be an international star? Ortiz have them but fell short by quitting to an unsmiling and not-so-good looking assasin.
Whatever happens to Kessler in the ring, it's just great that the guy is finally going to get a chance to either prove himself again, or fail, against top competition. It's great for the division. Sauerland needs to be given an award for this.
I hope he has finally bought himself out so we can finally see what this guy is made of. With that said he should have done this years ago.
It wasn't within his power. It took a promoter the size of Sauerland to make an acceptable offer to Palle. Kessler couldn't have done it himself.
From what I can find, Sauerland gave Palle two offers he declined and he has a deadline on a third offer. If Palle declines that also, Sauerland will meet Palle in court over Kesslers contract
Well, people loved a smiling, handsome Floyd Patterson and pretty much hated his conqueror Sonny Liston, so there might be something to it.
