    No reason he should. Kessler is a great fighter but, in terms of profile if nothing else, he is no Calzaghe. No way would Dawson fight him just to add the name to his résumé, not at present anyway.

    BTW, a question for those who know more about Dawson than I do, is there actually a possibility he could fight effectively at SMW?
    he said he could move down if he needed to and there were no more lucrative fights @175. But that was a while ago he said that and it seems like his management wants to establish him as premiere LHW and let the overcrowded SMW division move up to him. Theres not enough belts for all of them when Miranda, Abraham, Pavlik, Ward, Dirrell get into the mix there.

      Froch is desperate for big fights, no way in hell would he 'duck' Taylor (or Kessler). In Taylor's case he doesn't even have the choice, Taylor is his mandatory challenger and Froch's only leverage is the belt. It's Taylor's call; I think he wants the fight - he probably thinks it will be easier than Kessler, and he is probably right - but it seems HBO have pulled the plug on it. With Froch free, I can see Froch v. Kessler in Copenhagen happening. Taylor can piss about with Winky in the meantime, then fight the winner.

      • All of this crying from a "warrior". Give me a ****ing break. Sorry Mikkel, but when you pulled out of the Edison Miranda fight you ****ed up with the American promoters. And no offense but I think Taylor would beat you!!!!

          Thank you!!!

            There was 2 seperate negotiations. Kessler backed out the first time because no belt was on the line. Then Miranda was suddenly highly ranked by WBA but that time Miranda negotiated with both Kessler and Abraham. Miranda ditched Kessler for Abraham when they got down to the real nitty gritty.

                This thread is beyond ******.




                Mundine in Australia

                Calzaghe in Wales.


                Let Dawson take somewhere near any of those risks before calling one of them gutless and the other great.




                Pavlik wants to stay at 160. Biggest fight there is Abraham. Not happening.Thats fine

                Dawson wants to stay at 175. Biggest fight there is Calzaghe. Not happening. Thats fine.

                Kessler wants to stay at 168. Biggest fight there is Taylor. Might happen. **** Kessler,he's gutless etc, etc.

                Excellent. Give yourselves a round of applause for impartiality. And Newsflash for those saying the best way for a European to get an American in the ring is to go to the states and fight a name to get exposure. Abraham. He's further away from a fight with Pavlik than when he was staying put in Germany.

                There is bigger fights for Kessler at 168, than there is for Pavlik and Dawson at their weight classes and Kessler is the one getting the **** thrown at him for wanting to stay put.

                Dawson's team say they want Kessler at 175, thats fine,Chad's awesome.

                Kessler's team say they want Dawson at 168, or a catchweight. thats BULL****, he is clearly a coward who is afraid of the big fights, forget about taking Calzaghe on in Wales, when he had a lot more to lose, thats easy compared to the mighty Chad.

                    Now why the **** would Kessler fight at joke like Edison Miranda, after that beating he took from Abraham?!
                    He wants the IBF fight against Bute, or the WBC fight against Froch..And since the FROG is fighting Taylor, he probably has to settle for Bute..

                    Kessler's camp has it figured out..get the 2 belts, in either WBA/WBC og WBA/IBF, then he gets interesting for the american crowd...

                    Besides, Hopkins is scared ****less of taking a beating from Kessler, since he got his ASS WHOOPED by JC, and Kessler barely lost that fight in comparison..
                    I HATE HOPKINS!

                    • Kessler needs to get real.

                      He is an established boxer, but that is all. He is nothing special and will bring nothing to a potential "Super-Fight".
