    Mikkel Kessler vs. Lucian Bute

    Mikkel Kesslers promoter Bettina Palle told B.T (A danish news paper) that she has been considering calling Canada to set up a fight between Lucian Bute and Mikkel Kessler for Bute's IBF title.. Kessler himself said he's "Ready for anyone, anywhere" Link http://www.dr.dk/Sporten/Oevrig_spor...1105100737.htm (In danish)

    This would be an interesting fight

      would be an interesting fight, a tough test for Kessler's especially after his defeat. I'd see Kessler winning this fight with his more accurate punches.

        Bute wouldn't have been my 1st choice, personnally I would rather have him travelling downunder and earn himself some easy aussie dollars, before he took on someone who is a potential threat. just to get back on track.

          I don't think Kessler did much wrong against Calzaghe. If he steps in the ring with any other SMW, Bute included, he'd be back to winning ways. It all depends on his confidence level but he should jump straight back into a championship level fight IMO.

            This is not a good fight for kessler to jump back into it all. I'd rather him fight Miranda or Bika. Bute is fast as hell and hits hard, he is like a replica of Calzaghe. Calzaghe is a great southpaw and Bute is a good southpaw. Bad fight for a return.This is not the right opponent for kessler.

              it could be a double edged sword. he could jump back in and kick ass like he was doing and get back a major title or he could jump backin and when he gets caught or losses a round or two he could mentally break apart.
              Id say fight a contender like green or codrington, ko them for some easy cash and tv views then as confidence will be flowing fight bute or someone else for the vacant titles calzaghe has left.

                  Similar fighters but I think Kessler is better. Bute is no bum!
