Mikkel Kessler, who should he fight after Haussler?

bute, taylor, abraham or pavlik.

eventually id like to see dirrell fight him once he has some 12 round experience with some contenders. by the time dirrell is able to beat andrade, i think he should fight kessler next. if the matrix is moved right, he can really become THE super-middleweight of our time!

bute or taylor.

I think he should fight Bute if Bute defeats Andrade. After that I would like to see him in a fight on American television and would be happy if he faced any of Miranda, Lacy or Taylor. If he beats any of those then the logical next step would surely be Kelly Pavlik, and after that a move to LHW to face Dawson. That would pretty much be my dream career for Mikkel Kessler.

ANYONE from the U.S. or atleast in the U.S. so we ALL can see if he has great skills or just above average, because the only great fighter he faced was Calzaghe! I would like to see Pavlik go head up with Kessler!

Who do you think he should fight? I would love to see him fight Bute or Pavlik tbh.

Bute if he beats Andrade. Kessler already beat Andrade handily enough that even if Andrade wins and gets a belt from Bute, that fight ain't worth it. We'll see if Taylor challenges Froch for the WBC belt later. Froch should have it, and that fight makes sense for Mikkel too. Still wouldn't mind the Miranda fight even tho Edison got KTFO again.

It would be very depressing for Miranda to have to fight Kessler.

I'd like to see a Kessler/Bute unification fight

It would be a highly skilled entertaining fight between the two best fighters at 168.

A fight with Taylor would be a good tactical fight and would greatly improve his standing in the U.S. It could open a lot of doors for him.
