Kessler vs Hopkins in 09' makes sense to me!!
The chances of a rematch for B-Hop with RJJ are slim...most of us know that Joe Calzaghe will win a UD and Roy has said he wouldin't fight Bernard again anyway so thats that.
If Hopkins was to come out swinging like he did against Pavlik and Kessler was to do the same, this would be an explosive fight, and win or lose for Kessler if he was to put up a good fight against Hopkins (on a good hopkins night LOL!!) he would be an instant star in the US IMO.
What are your thoughts everybody!!??
GO KING KESSLER!!!!
Informative as well.
You are know in the same category as TheMachine as a racist, biased individual that lies about his location for no apparent reason.
I'm in good company then. :D
:lol1: Unexpectedly funny.

Hopkins is a bad matchup for Kessler stylistically and there's actually no point for Hopkins to fight Kessler right now.
Racist.
It's posts like this that have seen a hate thread dedicated to you in the Thunderdome.
I'm not sure if Hopkins's camp wants to take the risk,they want a big payday with no risk and Kessler will be very big risk to Hopkins,Kessler will retire him

It's a good matchup but I'm not sure if Kessler's camp wants to take the risk, Kessler wouldn't have nearly as much to lose as Pavlik did though.

Don't be so sure, Kessler might actually throw some punches at Bernard unlike Pavlik.
Amen to that brother...it would be a scrap and Bernard could go at any time...A decision for Hopkins is a likely outcome tho...dont get me wrong...
For the record, I'm not using it as an excuse, it is what it is.
I know, i was only kidding.
Cheeky Lil Bugger The Noo Young William Wallace Aiiiiiii
for the record i was born in London and live in scotland.
and i don't have the accent.
I would quite like to see it.
I think the chances of it happening are very slim though.
If it were to happen i think Hopkins would win a decision.
Basically what he said. Roy had a u turn and a few days later said he would fight Nard again if the deal was right. Yawn, certain someone else says no to a rematch they get blasted, they change their minds they get blasted, Roy gets nowt.
Nard already wrote Kessler off in a face off with Calzaghe so he'd look a bit of a fool facing him, let alone losing to him. Would be an awful way for him to go out. If it's soon I'd favour a Hops decision but as time goes on Kesslers boxing brain is improving so I might well change my mind.
Mentioned earlier in an other thread. Morgens Palle interview after the Häussler fight to a danish newspaper BT:
http://www.sporten.dk/hvad-nu-mikkel
"Now we can look forward, but we have to await the Calzaghe - Jones fight. I hope for a Calzaghe win, because if Jones wins, they for sure will make and other Hopkins - Jones fight. But if Calzaghe wins, there will be no interest in a Hopkins - Jones fight. Hopkins will go after Calzaghe, but he will not fight Hopkins again, and then Hopkins is without a fight. This could open up for a Hopkins - Kessler fight" stated the day after in Oldenburg by Mogens Palle to sporten dk (BT a danish newspaper)
Mogens Palle wants to make it clear, that there are more possibilities for a fight on US - television in the spring.
"We have more than one lucrative offer fore some televised fights in US but we awaits the November 8. fight, which can change everything". Palle don't want to explain further about these fights offer in US.
(sorry for the translation)
I would rather see this than either of them against Dawson as I think they both beat him. Would be great if Hopkins could come down to 168 as well and fight for a SMW title.
yes lol...bloody crouts LMFAO.
but yea Bute will take this one...he needs a good hit out and an easy win after the Andrade episode...look I didint see the fight but the way I see it is he made it through all those rounds with a very very tough bloke in Andrade.
Kessler and Abraham is mouth watering too as the americans are starting to pay attention to Abraham after the Miranda episodes...shame Kessler didint take that route...he woulda smashed Miranda IMO
Kessler is already a star. In Denmark, Canada and the US. he doesn't...and never needed....miranda to prove that.
It doesn't matter in the end....your boxer proved that even with millions of dollars he has in the bank, he can still get motivated enough to train for weeks knowing everyone expected him to take out Haussler the way he did. And he did. And all is spoken of is how weak Haussler is. Boxing is a cruel sport.
