    :good
    I was in Copenhagen last weekend and everybody seemed to know and root for Kessler. It´s good to see a boxer being so popular.

    Yeah we have to appreciate it when we get a talent like Mikkel. It doesn't happen that often in a small country like Denmark.

    On the downside though people were really disrespectful to Bouadla and booed the French national anthem. I think that is really a dispicable thing to do.

    Let's be brutally honest. We don't know what goes on in negotiations between Interbox and Sauerland. For all we know Sauerland could have made a counter offer to Interbox of six chickens and a plane ticket home and for all we know Interbox could have offered Kessler's team 3 mill total and no tv rights anywhere for a fight in Montreal.
    It's all conjecture and neither Interbox nor Sauerland should be trusted in this matter.

    Well, you're right we don't know nothing for sure but some facts remain:

    - Sauerland said he would make a counter offer.
    - interbox said they never even received an answer to their offer, and no counter offer.

    One of them is lying. Since Sauerland didn't choose a southpaw for Kessler's comeback, since he manoeuvred to get the Kessler-Bouadla fight winner named mandatory for the WBO before he received the Interbox offer, I think any judge in a courtroom would believe Jean Bédard more than Sauerland.

    Kessler has nothing to do with that, except he went from a dirty promoter to another one. Sauerland is his choice.

    Kalle Sauerland said he sent a Counteroffer. It's their word against Interbox. You choose to believe Interbox which is a little naive I think. I don't believe Interbox and I don't believe Sauerland.

    The fight has been discussed for a couple of month.. sending some fax at some point doesn´t mean ****. Both sides showed interest on that matchup but Interbox was like Montreal or its not going to happen and Sauerland said okay than **** off we´re moving on. then sending some fax and claiming Kessler just didn´t want to fight is just another Lucy style bitchmove. the level of both fighters past opponents speaks for itself ..

    Why would Kessler fight an orhodox fighter last time out if he truly wanted Bute ? That's the key right there......

    This is what Stephan Larouche (Bute's trainer) had to say on the situation : http://www.rds.ca/boxe/chroniques/322791.html

    J'imagine que Kessler n'a pas aimé ce qu'il a vu contre Magee parce qu'il a changé ses plans assez rapidement. Ne l'oublions pas, il venait d'abord pour évaluer Lucian. Pourquoi aurait-il pris une nouvelle route par après? Je ne pense pas que c'était un problème d'argent, parce que Jean Bédard le voulait tellement qu'on aurait fini par s'entendre avec lui financièrement.

    We don't have a good relationship with the Sauerland family ! We are still mad after the father when he stole Eric Lucas Belt :twisted:

    Well feel free to believe Interbox, but I wouldn't trust them or Sauerland as far as I could throw them. Promotors are serving their own interests. Furthermore Interbox would have to cut drastically into Bute's purse to make an offer that would be interesting for Sauerland if the fight was to be held in Montreal...

    If you think that Kessler came to personally asses Bute then you are gullible. Kessler does not choose whome he fights his promotors does that for him. I have that on good authority (a Danish freelancer who follows Kessler's career and frequently talk to his promotional team as well. He posts on here some times and runs a boxing site himself).
