Mikkel Kessler Heading To Light Heavyweight?

[BattlingNelson]

He definitely should have fought Miranda. Exciting matchup, and he would have won by KO, imo.

Exactly. Yesterday my hope was first to beat Mundine to get the title then give the first defense to Miranda. I would really like to see Kessler vs. Miranda. A classic match-up of boxer vs. slugger. With a move to LHW thats impossible. How sad.

This is an awesome move! What are you guys talking about?

We will get to see Dawson vs Kessler soon enough.

He still had alot of good fights in the deep SM division... He would have beat miranda and a few other top contenders. Its funny how one loss can mess up a great fighters head.

I hope you're right. I just think the potential match-ups at SMW are superiour i.e. the division seems deeper. You got Mundine, Taylor, Bute, Miranda, Froch, Inkin and perhaps Lacy. AND Pavlik might move up witin a year or two.

Forget Calzaghe. He is out of boxing by the end of 2008 (I hope).

SMW only has a few names but better boxers I agree.

The more I thought about it the less I want him to move up. Tarver vs Woods = Loser will probably retire and Winner will fight Joe. Johnson will retire soon, Hopkins and Joe will retire soon too. So that leaves Dawson and Erdei.

ever thought this is bull****, the dude cancels miranda, calls out choc and then announces a move to lhw, some of its gotta be bull****

i agree sounds like Kessler is running away from a red hot division

What a surprise. One moment he's gonna fight Miranda, next he's gonna fight Mundine and now he moves to LHW. I'm confused......

I stated more than ones. Problem started when Danny Green suddenly retired. Is Kessler going after to step in for Green, and then as a 175 champ set pressure on Calzaghe for a rematch, that he wouldn't give at 168, to unification at 175? If this is the plan, we can forgive him not fighting Miranda.

I agree, he had nothing to lose in that fight. Not much real to gain either, but he could have looked good on television

That is an outstanding fight if it happens
