Warren: "Kessler Turns Down Calzaghe Fight"

[GTL]

i don't believe anything that frank warren says, dude is a flat out liar. if that dude told me i was on fire and there were 10 feet of flames coming off the top of my head and there was 10 feet of flames and i was on fire i'd still call him a liar due to his track record. that guy has probably taught king and arum a thing or two on how to swindle.....................

they're just trying to make calzaghe look like he wants to take on the world, when they really want to avoid the real challenges and cash in and make it look like they actually tried to get the best fights available. the only reason the best fights are never available for joe is due to frank warren economics, go out and get a copy.

sorry for the double post..i agree 100 percent word for word

Kessler shouldn't have a lot at stake really, in an ideal boxing world.

he's the number 1 contender to the 168 champion Joe Blow. It's the 168 title he wants surely, to elevate him beyond Euro-robot beltholder?

Are you suggesting Andrade was a tougher opponent that Manfredo Jr???
Are you suggesting Andrade is tougher than Bika???

Are you Suggesting Calzaghe needs the MEDIA to prove he is the better man???
HE is THE BETTER MAN UNTIL proven otherwise.. Calzaghe does NOT need Kessler..Kessler needs Calzaghe..

Well said, . Who is Andrade? Im not A big Calzaghe fan, But He would beat Kessler right now very easily..Bika and Manfedo would could beat Andrade.Some other ass posted that Kessler is red hot in the U.S. Why because he's A preatty boy???? One ****ing fight against A mexican cab driver does not make him red hot....Does It??

We need to see some confirmation of an offer actually being made first of all. Something besides the BS out of Warren's mouth.
Only then can we start considering details of this supposed offer.
How manny here believe Warren will be willing/able to reveal ANY detail about the offer?
If he does he sets himself up for having his bluff called in a bad way. Or more likely it'll be revealed exactly how cheap Warren is prepared to go.

Frank Warren is the biggest bull ****ter in the boxing business.

he looked horrible last night. if you dont think so than you are obviously too much of a fan to be objective, that ref really blew it for him!

[CottoOverrated1]

I will say this tho. Manfredo could have stand to throw one punch back at least.

[Super_Lightweight]

No. False. No one between 160-175 will beat Kessler 'easily'. Period.

[GunStar]

I don't even know why Boxingscene posted this, fact is Frank Warren talks out of his ass just like Bob Arum!

After Calzaghe's third-round stoppage of Peter Manfredo, Jr., he expressed his desire to unify his WBO/The Ring magazine titles with WBC/WBA champion Mikkel Kessler (39-0, 29 KOs), from Copenhagen, Denmark, as his next fight this summer or travel to the U.S. to take on Jermain Taylor. [details]

Not really a turn down, more of a issue with negotiation.
