    Kessler will win this 9 out of 10 times...

    But Green can punch! Just ask Codrington....

    So there is always the risk/chance that Kessler will run into a nasty punch.

    Uh duh.....Bute/Interbox offered Kessler 50/50 of gate and TV money. Showtime was putting up 2 mil, the gate was est to bring in nearly 800K. Danish TV rights were est to be close to 2 mil as well, and Interbox even made a guarantee, at least of the Canadian/Showtime tv money and the gate est at nearly 3 mil. Surely the Danish TV money woulda put that figure close to 3.5- 4 mil for the Viking Warrior.

    He ducked the fight. No if's ands or buts about it. And lucian was boycotted as his replacement as well, and uninvited becuase he was under contract with a rival network when the original 6 were signed.:-(

    Where do you get these numbers from?
    All i know is that Kessler was guaranteed 750K.. I trust the iron chinned warrior more than the stay-at-home fraud

    I dont understand why Cloud did not accept Sauerlands offer of 4.6 millions USD to fight in Denmark. I would be a much better fight than the Green fight. I guess that it is hard to make those kind of money in the US these days?.........

    Yes. That is more than Cloud has earned his entire career.

    Which is why I don't believe there was such an offer.

    Kessler has very little to say about who he is fighting. Kessler has said several times to german medias that he concentrates on figthing the guys Sauerland puts in front of him. Stupid to label Kessler as a ducker. He is the fighter in SMW/LHW that has fought most world champs and undefeated fighters in todays boxing and often abroad.

    [SIZE=+0][SIZE=+0]It was too hard to make big fights in the super-middleweight, and therefore Mikkel Kessler gone up in the light heavyweight.[/SIZE][/SIZE]


    [SIZE=+0][SIZE=+0]Mikkel Kessler must have some weight on the body.[/SIZE][/SIZE]
    [SIZE=+0][SIZE=+0]This is the short-term strategy for Mikkel Kessler. [/SIZE][SIZE=+0]For the fight against Allan Green has the Dane agreed to go one weight class up from super middleweight to light heavyweight. [/SIZE][SIZE=+0]A difference there could ultimately be worth much. [/SIZE][SIZE=+0]For a victory over 32-year-old Allan Green 19th [/SIZE][SIZE=+0]May in Copenhagen is equal to a major title fight Kessler on WBCs World Championship belt. [/SIZE][SIZE=+0]Tomorrow it is determined whether it will be Bernard Hopkins and Chad Dawson when the two boxers meet in the U.S. and it is therefore the winner, Mikkel Kessler may encounter in his next fight.[/SIZE][/SIZE]


    [SIZE=+0][SIZE=+0]But most importantly is that all these boxers are Americans. [/SIZE][SIZE=+0]It's still the case that by far the largest battles in terms of both prestige and economy made in the states, and Kessler clan do not want to waste time, so they chase the big prize in a new weight class.[/SIZE][/SIZE]

    [SIZE=+0][SIZE=+0]See also: [/SIZE][/SIZE][SIZE=+0][SIZE=+0]Green: I can beat Kessler out[/SIZE][/SIZE]

    [SIZE=+0][SIZE=+0]- It turned out to be difficult to make decent, solid matches in the super middleweight. [/SIZE][SIZE=+0]There was simply no more options left for us here and now. [/SIZE][SIZE=+0]Therefore we decided to look into other weight classes, and we have always said that Bernard Hopkins was a good opponent for us. [/SIZE][SIZE=+0]Him we could not get so quickly, but we could get something very close. [/SIZE][SIZE=+0]At the same time, it was also important link to the U.S.. [/SIZE][SIZE=+0]If we had made a fight against such a boxer Brian Magee from Northern Ireland, so it did not really interest beyond the Danish borders. [/SIZE][SIZE=+0]It would not bring us closer to the big market in the U.S., says Mikkel Kessler German promoter Kalle Sauerland.[/SIZE][/SIZE]

    [SIZE=+0][SIZE=+0]Originally it was planned that Kessler should have been in the ring against Robert Stieglitz, but because of the damage had Mikkel Kessler cancel two game. [/SIZE][SIZE=+0]It does ultimately not it great for Stieglitz is from Germany and not a huge name on the international boxing scene. [/SIZE][SIZE=+0]Therefore, the idea of ​​leaving his normal weight class not remote for Kessler, who can see potential in going up a weight class, even if it means he must take three pounds of muscle mass.[/SIZE][/SIZE]

    [SIZE=+0][SIZE=+0]Read also: [/SIZE][/SIZE][SIZE=+0][SIZE=+0]Kessler: I get bigger and stronger[/SIZE][/SIZE]

    [SIZE=+0][SIZE=+0]- It suits me fine, and it is no problem for my training. [/SIZE][SIZE=+0]For that I quickly put on. [/SIZE][SIZE=+0]The most important thing for me is the challenge and to meet a proper name. [/SIZE][SIZE=+0]Allan Green is the springboard on for me, says Kessler.[/SIZE][/SIZE]
    [SIZE=+0][SIZE=+0]Now the big question is whether the 33-year-old Mikkel Kessler can withstand pressures up to fight against Allan Green in the middle of May in Parken in Copenhagen. [/SIZE][SIZE=+0]He has had physical problems in recent years, and he can not bear more, if the body succumbs again.[/SIZE][/SIZE]

    [SIZE=+0][SIZE=+0]- If I can not stand it this time, so I think I may pull the plug, so I can not stand for something, said Mikkel Kessler.[/SIZE][/SIZE]

    Don't trust Sauerland. He proved once again how he bullshits everybody all the time.

    And you are bullshitting with the 500K offer. Interbox offered 1,35 M$ to Pavlik. The offer they made to Kessler was higher than that for sure. Of course, we'd have to know all the numbersm which we don't.

    Bute just signed for not much cash to fight Froch, proving he is not putting himself out of price as you said dozens of times. In the mean time, Sauerland just broke a contract he had signed because it was costing him too much to respect his word. After Bute and Stieglitz, he goes for Allan Green.

    It should be obvious who is the crook in all these promoters and who you shouldn't trust.

    Yeah, because Kessler is known to be a ducker and useually avoids the biggest challenges :roll: ..
    Green is a C level fighter, but the word "bum" gets tossed around alot..

    I don't say Chitown' numbers are good. Yours are obviously false.

    Your source is Sauerland? :rofl Not worth my worst ****. Stop being so candid, the guy lies for months now (on this subject, he also lies for years on others) and you still believe him? A fight at LHW because it is too hard to make big fights at SMW, that's what Sauerland said. ****, he had a title fight scheduled and faked an injury that healed miraculously. Ward said he would face Kessler again. Bute wants him. Howcome there is no fight?

    Poor Kessler. He is a warrior but he's not very good at choosing his promoters. Gone from one rotten to an other one.
