    For those who want to believe that the **** from rafael and that phony
    print job of a demands list was legit, then you HAVE to beleive the story from marley.
    In any case, no matter who's at fault. The bottom line is that kessler's
    EARNED the right to pick who he fights at 168, because he is the more key figure and established player. If he wanted to back out of a PROPOSED negotiation with team pantera to seek a bargaining chip in the form of a WBA strap then he has the right. nappy head should be
    happy he's even in the running for a fight with the dane. If miranda can still get the fight on HBO w/ kessler then his team should just bite the bullet and take it or,
    :stfu

    come on dude, Marley's his American promoter. Rafael is a respected columnist working for America's #1 sporting news network. It's Marley's job to spin and make **** sound the way it best fits his agenda as a promoter, where as Rafael could lose his job if he's caught putting out false information.

    Kessler is a professional, and on top of that, he just shared a ring with the best true 168 pounder of, possibly, all time. I don't believe for a second he's actually "afraid" of Edison Miranda. Why should he be?

    Who did look silly behind this whole debacle were the Kessler fanboys. Apparently, Mikkel's braintrust is less convinced that Miranda is a pushover than his loyal worshippers are. If they were, there would have been no need for any of this nonsense.

    If PBF did what Kessler did, people on here would crucify him.

    Kessler is the former unified SMW champ, he fought Mundine in his backyard while having back problems, went and scooped the WBC from Beyer in his backyard, fought Andrade with no problems and then went into the first Undisputed SMW championship bout in Joe ****ing Calzaghe's backyard and he's fearful of a mid-level fighter in Miranda?:lol:

    Damn straight my man, PBF or anyother high profile fighter that gets rightly held to high standards if they want to be respected as the top players in the game.

    Unify titles in his division and then face the BEST fighter in the division in his backyard?

    Yeah, haven't seen Floyd ever do that.:yep

    the thing is that who is team pantera negotiating with? and from just 1
    incident w/ miranda your saying that palle is making up the HBO date?
    The man's been a promoter for 50 years. Give him some respect.
    Look, you and pipe wrench both seem like respectable and affiable posters, but don't buy into the hype. Please!
    If the fight is still salvageable then team pantera should take the fight.
    They have no more attractive options

    I couldn't give a crap what Miranda has to say.

    Miranda is Mayorga at 168 - A slugger that if he lands look out, but he's got about the same skill level.

    Kessler can stuff him around all he likes, Miranda's only had a couple of fights at 168, kudos for wanting the big fights - But earn it first.
