Miranda Seeks Kessler... The Feelings Not Mutual

[oovavu]

Well thats a pretty one sided account hopefully Kessler will correspond.

[Steak]

Please....... It's not me. It's them bleeeping alphabetboys.

I've seen Braemer to. If he is in the top 10 its at the bottom. But thats politics man. There is a good sanctioning fee waiting from the big german promoter (Sauerland or whatever).

haha, I certainly understand what youre getting at each time you say something like that, but youre going to have to make it a little tiny bit more obvious, no one is catching on. The alphabet belt rankings really are messed up, arent they? their absolute worst policy is that if a fighter wins a different belt, the others take that fighter out of their rankings completely. that is just...beyond a pain in the ass. It would make mandatories actually fight the BEST guys, but nowadays most the time mandatories seem to be 'easy' fights...


anyways...Im starting to get why people like Miranda so much. hes almost as good as Mayorga, haha. I have no idea why Kessler is avoiding this fight...hopefull he'll respond that hes not avoiding it at all, and that theyll be fighting in the future. it feels like that type of scenario.

HOLLYWOOD, FL, March 6 - Despite offers to hold the bout in a neutral location and significant offers from both HBO and Showtime for the television rights to the bout, Mikkel Kessler seems to have decided to tuck his tail between his legs and walk away from a lucrative showdown with the feared ‘Pantera’, Edison Miranda. [details]

Surely, you can't be serious?

(I am serious and stop calling me Shirley.... muahahahahaha)

I really dont think Dibella is going to throw JT into another tough fight right away.

Unlike some other boxers, taylor controls his promoter. I think taylor has more say in the direction that his career should take more than Dibella.

Miranda is a really good fighter but to go from Calzaghe to Miranda is a step down. He is probably looking for Jermain Taylor or Lucien Bute. Hopefully he takes Bute so I could attend the fight here in Montreal.

[J90]

Seriously? He wasn't afraid to fight Calzaghe, but he's afraid of Miranda? Doesn't make sense.

Yupp, i have Kessler winning this fight to...easily

Thanks for the advice mate. It's just that those ranking p****s me off.

I think that it must be because he wants a tune-up after his hand-operation, before facing a dangerous opponent (if the report is true that is...)

[TheGreatA]

Miranda should beat someone that matters before calling out the top guys in the SMW division. Pascal, Andrade, Lacy, Bika... Someone like that. The David Banks KO was impressive but Banks is not a top contender.

I'm quite sure Kessler would fight Miranda if there weren't any other options, he might be looking for a fight with Bute, Mundine or Taylor.

This is of course all speculation.
I'd be very disappointed if Kessler went on a bum of the month tour in Denmark at this stage of his career.

[The Hammer]

Kessler probably decided this because he has a bigger fish to fry: Jermain Taylor.

Miranda, who's never had a world title, is really an overhyped loud-mouthed nobody. He lost in his title fight with Abraham, and he hasn't ever beaten anybody of note.

Taylor on the other hand is a former universally recognized champion at middleweight, with two wins over Bernard Hopkins.

[Majority_Draw]

Yeah Kessler has beaten Marcus Beyer.

We all know what a HUGE name that is.
