team palle are interested in fighting mads larsen after larsen beat another C grader on a PPV undercard (something kessler needs more of - PPV exposure that is) according to 'extrabladet' newspaper (prominent danish newspaper) in the last few hours.. kessler is genuine about fighting the best fighters in the world but this fight would be a joke if he's serious about finding how good he is. even though this fight would be big business in denmark it will amount to nothing more than that.
if you want to be ignorant enough to not understand how the business of boxing works then, yes, he does. do you know why so many supporters of euro boxers cry this same line? if you do tell me now because i've posted this a hundred times before. kessler is a quality fighter, but if you dont know why he's not getting big fights then you shouldn't be posting this tripe.
Relax guys... This is a management scheme... For the world to see that Kessler has different options in 2009.
No that is not bull****... This is just part of promoting fighters. Team Palle is still in negotiations with 2-3 other fighters, by going to the press with news of a possible Larsen-Kessler fight in march, he is sending a signal that he doesnt need the other fighters, and therefore hoping to price up Kessler and land a fight with one of the other 2-3 options.
and how do you think you get those 'other options?' mikkel's fought the top contenders at SMW and fought a good fight against calzaghe - so why do you think that taking a paper belt against sartisan and a cheap defence builds his selling power in the US?
If Larsen againt all odds defeats Bute. Kessler will be ready thats the spin going on right now. Bute and Larsen is almost a done deal. I recon the contracts has already been signed.
