..Willy D-Loff: Difference Between ABRAHAM and KESSLER...

[Pantera2000]

I dont think Kessler was ever scared. Palle is just an *******.
I would bet that after Miranda beats Abraham (got my fingers crossed) he will get the title fight with Kessler. By then it will be a huge fight.

[MANGLER]

Kessler shoulda fought Edison when he had the chance. It still might happen but the fight woulda been bigger had he taken first dibs.

Miranda backed out on Kessler. Kessler would annihilate Miranda.

Mogens Palle backs out because = Kessler wants a title fight
Kessler could get it against Miranda for a vacant title on HBO
Miranda backs out = He was already working on a Abraham rematch

= Both guys had their reasons.

Miranda wanted vindication. Kessler wanted an easy fight against someone he already beat. Bit of a difference.

after he already had the Abraham fight, you cant say Miranda backed out thats ridiculous. Im not usually a fan of European fighters, but people like Abraham, Calzaghe, Hatton, and Khan (stating he has to come over here) are winning me over. These guys i dont think are the best, but at least they know to be the best you have to beat the best, and they have my respect for taking these fights because they could easily just stay fighting bums in Europe and looking for vacant titles like Kessler. Kesslers still young so hopefully he'll come around.

Kessler went for Mundine to get a title, then Mundine turns that down and Kessler wanted to fight Miranda again for a vacant title .. How is that different?

First, he'd rather fight Mundine and Mundine turns it down, so he's like "Ok, what do I do now?" Palle tells him hes got an HBO title fight between him and Miranda setup, and hes like "Lets go" but Miranda "ran" from that fight since he was talking with Abrahams camp.

Miranda HAD a fight by the time Kessler wanted to fight. Kessler signed on to fight, then dropped out after something else came about. That's the difference.

Kesslers camp didn't know about that though, because nothing was official.

That doesn't affect Kesslers decision to pull out in the first place. Kesslers people were actually tryna double deal, THE WHOLE TIME. Kessler MAY not have control over who he fights, but he should. Sometimes, you gotta step up as a boxer.

[BattlingNelson]

As far as I know Palle never had a fighter as good as Kessler (who was his best before?) and so he doesn't know how to play things.

You're right there. Kessler is the best or at least second-best.

Before Palle's had Johnny Bredahl, Brian Nielsen, Mads Larsen, Gert Bo Jacobsen, Thomas Damgaard. Maybe Ayub Kalule was better than Kessler.
