    I think its an okay fight if it leads to a unification with Bute.

    Froch - Ward is for THE title though, everything else i am considering paper.

    Maybe if Pavlik found some form, he looks done though and i can only see a Kessler win there.

    a win over Stieglitz could probably set up a unification with Bute

    **but I'd like to see Kessler move up to Light Heavy sometime soon

    I thought Kessler said he wasn't looking to move to LHW anytime soon?

    Froch is just keeping Kessler's title warm.

    well with the chance to potentially fight Bute ... can't blame him

    Bute is one of the biggest names at 168 and most likely Showtime or HBO would pick up a Bute/Kessler bout

    Why would Kessler move to 175 :huh

    They money is much better at 168. The depth of competition is also at 168.

    Also.. while he was out for almost a yer and a half he reportedly (by Showtime) only gained 4-7 pounds during that time over the 168 limit.

    He is shoter than Dirrell, Bute, Andrade, Froch and so on.

    He is WBC emeritus champion.

    Why would he go to 175????

    Your post must be the most bizarre of the day.

    Kessler-Stieglitz is a good fight, and Stieglitz should not be underestimated.

    Just like the wearer of the Yellow jersey in tour de frace he has grown a lot after becoming world champion.

    He for example has better resume than Dirrell. Steiglitz has wins over undefeated Balzsay (WBO champ), undefeated Gutknecht (now European LHW champ) and as well as a win over future IBF SMW champ.

    He can beat most boxers if they box with him, but personally I feel that his weakness is if he is pressured heavily. Kessler could probably do well to pressure more than he usually does.

    If Kessler wins then I hope for a December fight in Copenhagen full of Danish and Romanian fans!!!

    Honestly, are you Bailey's alt? Some of the things you wrote are exactly what he wrote in another thread.
