38 year old Mikkel Kessler, has decided to return to the ring announces Saurland today.
His last fight was 4 years ago, when he lost a close fight to Carl Froch.
I don't believe it's the best idea to do a comeback, who would he fight? George Groves?
(Thoughts are being made that Kessler wants a third against Carl Froch, and I could see this happening with loads of happy fans buying to watch.)
I don't think anything has been finalized yet. Bringing in Kessler, should make a lot of Guys interested. He presents a great name on your record.
The WBSS is Kalle Sauerlands new baby having also pitched the idea for the Super Six. I think I saw some news at one point where Copenhagen was mentioned as one of the host cities. That raised an eyebrow for me, but I had never expected it to be in conjunction with Mikkel Kessler making a comeback.
Oh! Having some fights in Copenhagen would be superb, I would still support Kessler and come out to watch his comeback fight, my expectations would just be very limited.
So it's two weightclasses, I guess it's SMW and LHW? I hope we have another tournament, S6 was fun, even though our guy didn't win. It was great for the fighters too. Everyone won. Even the fans.
Do we have any news about other fighters in this WBSS?

Mate. Kessler is done. He was clearly past it against Froch 4 years ago. A comeback at this point is a very bad idea.
It's the same old same old. Your favorite fighters always ends up making you cry. For me it has happened so many times with Ali and Leonard being the most notable. For me personally this will be up there. I will never get used to it. :(
You are right mate, he looked like a slow brawler last time against Froch, 4 years out of the ring does not make you a better fighter. Damn.
I am honestly also totally baffled about this move. I can understand it, there's a lot of money out there for him, and he is probably the biggest star at SMW already. I just really didn't see it coming either. I thought he was happily retired. Can you tell me what WBSS is? Haven't read about it.
I seriously hope that he still got it, but ofcourse at 38, it looks like a milk.

I never saw this coming and I am kinda sad. I hoped he'd be one of the few to stay retired.
Anyway it looks like he's going to participate in World Boxing Super Series.
