Ever seen the movie Great White Hope? Mikkel Kessler could sit at home for six weeks eating bon-bons and still get rid of this chump. He's basically saying he'll do his regular training but nothing special for Hauser. For better or worse, that's what it is.
Kessler: "No training camp - no problem!"

IMO he should take it more serious as he is entering a stretch in his career were big-money fights are within his grasp.Comment

Who's Kessler want after this?
Too bad he couldn't have worked it out with Miranda. The networks would've bought it and he'd be more of name internationally (not that he isn't to a degree).Comment

Nothing has come out. According to poster 'Scary' Team Kessler negotiates with team Pavlik but that's probably only decoy-neg. from Pavlik's end as he's more likely to fight Abraham.
Kessler want's the US market badly so I guess he wants any available fighter that can give him some HBO-time. I don't believe Froch or Bute is in his sight. Moreso the Lacy-Taylor winner or Pavlik.Comment

Makes sense Bat. Let's hope his promoter makes those moves.Nothing has come out. According to poster 'Scary' Team Kessler negotiates with team Pavlik but that's probably only decoy-neg. from Pavlik's end as he's more likely to fight Abraham.

Kind of surprised in a way how bad the Calzaghe-Kessler fight did in the us market.
Kessler needs exposure sooner rather than later in the US.Comment

after these two tuneups since the calzaghe, then he bends backward to try to get a taylor or pavlik, then maybe i'll say, hey they doing it right!
i'm telling you bat i still get burnt at kesslers corner when i rewatch
cal/kess blah blah blah .he had his chance.Comment

Absolutely. And that's why not taking the Miranda fight was a monumental mistake.Comment

I agree. I wasn't impressed at all either. But maybe thats how Kessler wants iti take it you mean kessler wants the us matket badly after his next fight.

In any case Kessler brought in Jimmy Montoya as second trainer and cornerman for his last fight. I'm not myself a believer in more than one person to do the talking in the corner myself. But that's just me.Last edited by BattlingNelson; 09-13-2008, 12:32 PM.Comment

that bewildered look on kesslers face inbetween rounds in cal/kess says it all.
