Kessler vs. Miranda in jeopardy?

[BattlingNelson]

I picked up the following on ******************. WTF is happening here???

"It was late last week by other boxing information outlets that a fan pleasing action bout between super middleweights Mikkel Kessler and Edison Miranda was set to take place on May 24.

Not so says a source close to Miranda.

Late Friday night, the source to be called Mr. X, called and passed me a bit of information that points to the bout not being as close to being made as reported.

Michael Marley of Boxing Confidential is Kessler's United States agent, when I asked him about this rumor, he kept a tight lip and refused to discuss it with me; a tell tale sign that the bout is either in jeopardy or not yet done.

Stay tuned for more information."

ah crap, this fight has more twists than MJs bed clothes

Kessler is afraid to face a young smaller version of Mike Tyson in his prime.

Edison Miranda would have mopped Kesslers blood out of his eye sockets on to the mat in round 1. Kessler is no different than David Banks.

Kessler should stick to fighting old men like Calzaghe instead of young monsters. Mikkel "Coward" Kessler imo.

RIP Calzaghe

Pantera2000 made it sound like it was for certain. I hope he was right because I would like to see the fight, but like I usually do I won't believe it until I hear they have signed a contract.

I'm not sure where u came up with this info. My sources close to the Miranda camp say everything still looking good, just working on the details. I would be very shocked at this point if the fight didn't come through.

As allways there is something fishy that we dont know.

I can't see Kessler running from this fight. He has nowhere else to go. None of the champions are gonna fight him and his alphabet rankings doesn't give him a mandatory titleshot before 2010.

I would rather think that Miranda got a better offer somewhere where the risk/reward ratio is better. Remember it's a business and money makes the world go 'round.

I got it from ******************.com.

I really hope u are right. This fight should be a barn-burner.

I used to write for Marley and while most of his ideas are ****ing ******ed, he gets good inside info. Especially sense for some odd reason Kessler's people pegged him to be their American liason. So if marley (who likes to run his mouth) is being secretive, then there might be an issue or two here. hopefully not, this is a great fight at 168 and a great win for Kessler.

hope this **** comes off, i wanna see this.
