    Kessler is suffering from the spoiled child syndrome. The fights will not come to him. He seems to only care about grabbing some alphabet belt.

    All he needs to do is get in there and fight someone. If he does that he starts moving forward again. Nobody is going to give him breaks and thinking he deserves another shot at a title while coming off a loss is just silly.

    Miranda would have been a perfect comeback fight for him to get himself back on everyones radar. His team made ****** decisions and now he sits back and is stuck waiting, instead of taking a great fight when he had the opportunity.

    I find it hard to feel bad for him.
    Good post. I agree. The fights wont come easy for Kessler. He is too dangerous for the other top guys.

      True. Low reward to risk ratio.

      I understand why Kessler wants a rematch, but there is no chance. Joe is about to fight one of his last couple of fights. Mikkel Kessler isn't within his plans. This is so obvious to everyone, but obviously not Mikkel.

        He knows it. But what can he say? It's desparation based on the inability of his management to get him a fight. There is NO-ONE for him to fight.

          Kesller is half english, which makes him half a coward. His english limey side is still bitter that Calzaghe beat him.

            I agree with you... it's ridiculous that uk fans would not want calzaghe to give kessler a rematch but want floyd to give hatton a rematch.

              Yeah, the whole of the UK is campaigning for a Hatton-Floyd rematch. The Queen has already invited Bush round for some tea and crumpets to see if he can pull some strings.

              I'm from the UK and can name 10 people I'd rather see Floyd fight than Hatton.

              It's a bit sad that some people try and turn absolutely every subject into a criticism of the UK, UK boxers or UK fans.

                Calzaghe wont fight Kessler again, the simple fact of the matter is he was not in the fight after 4 rounds. Kessler pretty much lost a one sided fight after that point.

                He should be aiming for Bute or the Froch vs Inkin winner. Maybe even Jeff Lacy.

                      Kessler should've fought Miranda.

                      He would smash his face in.
