Who should he fight in his comeback ??
He's back!
Kessler only lost three fights.
One to Joe "Shoeshine" Calzaghe in Cardiff where 50.000 Welsh roared their big hero on. Joe himself seemed rather surprised that Kessler used his left so little, but it was actually broken. Mikkel had a hard time getting the fight even in Wales and feared Joe would never agree to meet him again.
Two to SOG Ward. They kept evading to the same side banging their heads together so Kessler injured his eyes. Nevertheless, he probably wasn't well enough prepared for his little known opponent. Plus it was in Cali. SOG only fights at home, like Calzaghe.
Three to the Cobra. Watching that fight I remember thinking he should stop because Froch is so primitive that a fit Kessler should have beaten him hands down. In stead he seemed tired and slow. Don't think he should come back now, except to show who's the King Snake.
Mikkel is a sensible guy, no was he thinks he can take over again; his retirement account must not look as good as he'd like.
Shoulda fought Froch a third time.
Unless it is to fight Froch again, it's a bad move. The guy has been out too long. Maybe 1 going away fight or something back home I guess. Kessler vs Lolenga Mock would be fine
I'm certain, both things happening on the same day. Sauerland are one of the main players for the tournament, that launches tomorrow and they have a press conference for Kessler the same day.
Exactly my thoughts too:boxing:
Perhaps Kesslers comback vil be in this tournament

The SMW division have not been worse in 10 years, maybe it's actually a division Kessler has a chance to take over. I think GG beats him or at least puts a very clsoe fight, but I don't think Degale can beat him. Kessler is very fundamentally sound.
Hes coming back to the enter that competition, presume him. Degale says hes back in the Autumn. No date for Smith/Dirrell yet, guess there in. No news on Groves/Chudinov yet, both in too? That's 6, maybe Zeuge and the other Dirrell to round out the entrants
Kessler is among the best Scandinavian boxers ever, but this is a stupid move. It won't go well. He should forget about this, unless he takes very easy fights.
