    One of the worst promoters in the world plan to draw Showtime to the court room according to danish tv2. wtf is wrong with this guy, the quicker guys like Palle get out of the sport the better.
    Here is the link http://sporten.tv2.dk/article.php/id-25924934.html.
    ... the translation below:

    The Danish boksepromoter Mr. Mogens Palle has chosen to sue television station show­hour, which is behind the much-publicised and ongoing super six-tournament.
    Mikkel Kessler participates in that tournament and Mr. Mogens Palle believes that Showtime is part of the reason that supermellemvægteren chose to break out of his contract with Stable Palle last year in 2009 to sign with German team Sauerland.
    "SAUERLAND and Showtime went around me to get Kessler," says Mogens Palle in a press release from the United States, where the trail is bound to take place.
    The aging boksepromoter wants a compensation of around 75,000 dollars from American Showtime, whom he before break with Kessler was in dialog with himself.
    "Showtime did try to get off with Mr. Mogens Palle for some time, and then they had, what they thought was a bad experience with Palle and chose to do without him. Showtime's involvement was part of the reason Mikkel left Stable Palle," says Mr. Mogens Palle's American lawyer Jethro Eisenstein.
    Although 75-year-old Mr. Mogens Palle now will cross swords with Showtime, he has not forgotten his bitter feelings against Mikkel he says.
    "He is a great fighter, but his loyalty is equal to zero. I was built his career up in 10 years. He has to suffer from Insomnia. I gave him the possibility of winning two titles, which he did, and a purse of life against Joe Calzaghe," says Mr. Mogens Palle, which considers that he still has the right to promote three matches for Mikkel.
    Mikkel has his first match in Super six competition on 21 November, where the fight against WARD takes place in oakland.

    75K is not much but since it's Palle I say spend the money on lawyers to **** him over. He deserves it.

    He is worse than Pavlik's reoccurring hand problem.

    even if 75k ain't that much it's still money Palle tries to get his dirty hands on, and god knows he don't deserve it. Just don't get why he at least can't admit he has lost. Following in the path of DK, at least DK is trying to act like a genuine person.
