    Pantera's chin isn't the greatest, BUT he's at the top with his raw power and speed combo. He has more than a chance @SMW. If Kessler is ducking Miranda...what an idiot! If he beats Edison he positions himself further in the rankings AND $$$$ fights. What an idiot!

    Yes, he better have a good reason. I am doubting it though since we still have yet to hear anything.

    Of course I watched the fight, who didn't? :huh

    Kessler didn't step it up until it was far too late. He knew that if he had came out from the 10th onwards with that kind of urgency he wouldve taken even more punishment than he did.

    The 12th round was akin to Zab Judah's 12th against Mayweather...too little, too late, meant nothing at all.

    I have to be honest. I like Kessler and all, but I'm VERY annoyed that he won't fight Pantera. He might be waiting forever at a shot against a "top" fighter (in other words, a big name on the downslide) and when it doesn't come he'll end up fighting a nobody.

    I asked you on two different websites what was the offer that was made and you haven't answered me. It's easy to say "They offered him a fair purse" when you're not providing any numbers.

    Maybe he's being offered 2x-3x more to fight Taylor or Winky Wright.

    All we have is the pussycat version of the story. ;)

    Bad move from Kessler. Its a good HBO fight that puts him back in the limelight, and is also very winnable. Kinda like a Taylor fight at SMW

    this type of name baiting in the press has been going on since i followed boxing 30 years ago.
    witter the WBC champ is calling out malinaggi/hatton/hopkins/the pope/

    and they are all not intrested although the pope said he would pray on it.

    it seems every week on esb bobby gunn has issued letters to every top cruiserweight demanding they fight him.

    miranda is just a similar fighter using a similar ploy to keep his name in the spotlight.

    IMO it would take a $2 million offer for kessler from team miranda to make the fight happen in america, so if they have that kind of money , put it on the table.

    equally it would take $3 to $4 million to buy a shot at mundine

    $1 to $ 2 million to a shot of bute.

    $ 5 to $ 6 for a shot at calzaghe

    miranda is a dangerous fighter no doubt and because of that , it is going to take a lot of backing by his investors or a number 1 slot to get a title shot.

    miranda is also hindered by the fact he is fighting out of america at 168 when most of the talent and money is overseas.

    His promoter is confirming thay are in talks. Miranda was one of the names HBO wants him to fight. They are negiotiating and Kessler has no problem fighting Miranda.
