AS previously reported several days ago, Sauerland Event submitted an offer to Ulf Steinforth of SES, the manager/promoter of WBO super middleweight champion Robert Stieglitz (39-2, 23 KOs), to have his boxer face the returning Mikkel Kessler (43-2, 32 KOs) in June. The offer was around 500,000 EUR, but it appears Steinforth is not taking the offer serious and says there are other plans for his boxer.
"Honestly, I have other plans for Robert. That's why we ruled out a fight with Kessler," said Steinforth. "We have not conducted any discussions with Sauerland. We got an email with a proposal on the fight but a person does not negotiate in this manner."
