    Knowing that HBO are trying to put together Hopkins vs Dawson and Pascal vs Cloud on the same card, wouldn't it be amazing for Showtime to counter back on that, and put together the S6 final on the main card with Bute vs Kessler as the undercard ?

    That would really rock, knowing that the winners meet to unify belts !


    I'm afraid I don't see that happend would be great and imagine if it would be Kessler vs Froch II for the unification that would mean WAR

    Bit of an exaggeration. Round 3 he got caught a few time after rocking Bouadla. Beside the odd wild hook and jab, there was nothing in it.

    I think Froch v Kessler II would be even more of a W for MK. (Unless held in the UK.)

    Remember MK said he had been fighting with the eye injury for some time, including while fighting Froch.

    If the final is Froch vs Ward..then Froch ain't available for Kessler as per my example.

    In my opinion Kessler is developing under trainer Montoya. His left hook is better and make him better on inside. Earlier under danish trainer Olsen he had a left jab and a right hand only useful from the outside. He is becoming a better fighter but easier to hit.
    His old style worked good against slow flatfooted guys like Beyer;Siaca and Andrade.
    The new Kessler would have better chance against Ward;Dirrell. Maybe he is even better next fight against Stiegliz ? probably

    He was not impressive whatsoever and got into a war with a French bum. Keesler gets taken apart by Ward, Dirrell or Johnson. Stick to fighting one dimensional plodders like Froch, Abraham and Andrade.

    Ward cheated and should have been dq'd, and Froch beat him, wtf?

    I agree Bute is the clear favorite against him though. Mikkel will need the fight in Denmark to beat Bute.
