    Kessler's promoter Sauerland:

    'It's funny because the final at the weekend was not really the end of the Super Six. There are so many questions left.

    'Froch and Kessler is a fight we've got to see again. Wherever the venue is, it is the sort of fight that is made for fans.

    'I think you could even do a part two and a part three with one in the UK and one in Denmark, wherever it makes sense and you'll get a big crowd.

    'I would obviously love for Mikkel to get a belt around his waist again but I also think Froch v Kessler is a fight that doesn't need belts to sell. It's a war.

    'Carl has come out of the tournament with a big name. His brand value has increased hundred-fold so I think he should still see himself as a winner, not a loser.

    'The fairest option could be one in England and one in Denmark.'


    :happy

    Blimey Froch's options are really opening up, Bute I and II in the pipeline, plus Kessler II and III, 2012 & 2013 should be both action packed with Carl Froch fights, I personally can;t wait!

    Where did the Bute rumours come from? They sounded nonsense to me.

    Seems more likely than the Bute fight.

    Never mistake the power of Eddie Hearn saying “We want two fights with Lucien Bute” and 100 idiots going “Froch is fighting Bute twice next year!”

    Until there’s ink on paper, it means nothing.

    Froch is going to be a VERY wealthy man at the end of 2013.

    What if Kessler loses to the terrible Stieglitz?

    The Hearn quotes on the scene mentioned talks between the camps.

    Interbox guy can't remember name has said they've already had discussions with Hearn about a fight between Bute and Froch right after Froch lost other night. Interbox have also got a partnership with Top Rank.

    :lol:Yeah I think so too but shocks can happen and Mikkel has had a few injuries and layoffs.

    First Bute/Froch two fight deal rumours and now this.If the first fight isnt competitive why the need for a second?

    Which pretty much proves my point. Saying we’re talking about it isn’t the same as saying it’s been agreed. They were possibly in talks before the S6 final.

    It’s a pretty silly fight for Froch and for Bute. Froch is going to be ruined with the schedule he’s kept and with another beating. Bute won’t get much credit for beating a guy Ward and Kessler already beat.

    I would like to see Bute take on a solid contender, but outside of Ward, Froch and Kessler, there just aren’t many there.

    froch vs kessler makes sense and hopefully for calzaghe's old belt once mikkel beats steiglitz, it would be nice while this was going on that ward fights bute, doubt it'll happen though, wouldnt suprise me if we see bute fight abraham in canada next?

    :deal He deserves to be. He's very good with his money, by the time he retires he'll be loaded.
