    Kessler-Hopkins will never happen, and Palle is delusional if he thinks it would. Whether or not Kessler is good, he's not a draw at all, and he's even less of a draw than Chad Dawson, Glen Johnson or Arthur Abraham. Calzaghe-Kessler was a huge ratings flop, and Hopkins' last couple fights have been major flops, so I can't see HBO being willing to pay a lot of money to have Hopkins-Kessler made.

    Kessler is calling out Hopkins and it's a travesty?
    Kessler is a champ you idiot.

    Hopkins already fought the TRUE champ at 168lb why would he want to fight Kessler ?

    And he lost, but thats not the point.

    The point is, how in the world is it a travesty for Mikkel to be calling out Bernard Hopkins?

    so what are you guys all proposing he do then, eh?
    he's too good to fight the guys that are out there and at the same time he refuses to retire. so what's he supposed to do?
