    According to a report confirmed by leon margules, warriors boxing turned down a kessler fight that HBO agreed to in florida for that matter. Mogens palle was lobbying to get miranda from the #6 spot
    to the #2 spot in the WBA rankings so that the winner would be in a position to fight for the title. Team kessler just wanted to fight on HBO
    not showtime. All those press releases from warriors were just trying to
    boost miranda's profile. I knew kessler wasn't scared of that crude ****.
    Now kessler said he will fight whoever HBO wants him to fight on 6/21
    so long as the money is right. Story is on boxingtalk if you don't don't beleive me.

    I guess boxingtalk forgot to mention that Miranda didnt sit around and lined up another fight. Palle screwed this one up.

    He said.. She said.. Let the promoters show some proof to what they're saying. Let's see some documents or something not all this fingerpointing.

    No. There are no long term contract like there used to be.

    Based on a 'save face' press release on Kessler's agent's site? Give me a break.

    [url]http://www.boxingconfidential.com/articles.php?id=4368[/url]

    We know Palle flat out lied and tried to blame Miranda's people for the fight falling through by saying they wrote the contract contrary to the verbal agreement. Miranda's people published the contract for all the world to see and Palle went silent when caught in his lie.

    Now you want to believe Kessler's agents web site? We know Miranda's people have been working hard to get SOMEONE to fight. Kessler just found out the world doesn't revolve around him? Poor baby. Miranda's people don't negotiate in bad faith and drop everything for poor little Palle?

    This line is a classic. Hang it up and frame it:

    "Now he's burned Showtime in one month and HBO in the next. I just wonder if Pantera and his co-managers know what's been going on."

    I suppose this crap will fly with Kessler supporters though, and that is the only crowd they are trying to save face with.

    Only simple if you don't have prior negotiations. Just because that means nothing to Palle doesn't mean that the rest of the world goes around screwing other people at the drop of a hat they THINK dropped.

    And lets not forget. Who wants to deal with Palle? He flat out lied and tried to blame Miranda's people for the fight falling through by saying the contact was not what they agreed to? Only to have Miranda's camp publish it and Palle went silent when caught in his lie? Now we are to believe there were negotiations? Any negotiations? Let alone serious negotions from this guy? Kessler's management screwed up and put up a pathetic press release trying to save face. Buy into it if you wish.

    Actually, I'm not a fan of either. I've just come to dislike Palle. ;)

    Do I want the fight? Yes.

    Does that mean the fight can happen now because Miranda is clear to negotiate with Palle? No.

    Would I believe anything from Palle now? HELL NO!
