    As you know he has said that he wants to fight in the US. I wonder who can deliver. I don't know what to hope for really. I'm not that keen on the germans although Sauerland might be the better of the 2, and calzaghe seems inexperienced at the big time.

      You dont believe that yourself. So youre saying Perdomo is the best opponent they can find? I really think Kessler doesnt care, surely he is rich and makes big money even for fights like this so why put yourself at risk when you dont have to, honestly Id probably do the same thing if it was me.

        Kessler has stated that he regards the options as fullfilled.

        1: Haussler.
        2: Larsen (which he signed for but the fight fell through anyway)
        3: perdomo.

        Palle says that no options has been fulfilled and that he wont stage the perdomo fight.

        Impossible from those public comments to give a proper assessment of Kessler's future.

        At least 3 promotors has expressed interest in Kessler's services: Sauerland and Universum (both germans) and Joe calzaghe whom Kessler apparently has befriended since their fight. I'd suspect that GBP was interested as well.
        LOL, that ship has sailed.. Larsen is a confused individual.. He was offered to fight Bute for the championship belt but chose to chicken out in the last minute to fight Kessler.. Then he goes on danish television talking **** about Kessler and his promoters.. Then, guess what.. He chickens out agian.. Larsen is meant to fight nobodies only to be forgotten soon.

          hen the **** will Kessler step up. I guess it is true what they say about Joe Calzaghe. If the guy clearly beats you he takes your soul.

            They tried Larsen as I said, but that fell through. Time is the issue here as well as the dispute. Time because Kessler has to defend against Perdomo before July or else he will be stripped.

            Now I've tried explaining. Now you try to open your mind and comprehend

              Glenn Johnson would fight Kessler at the drop of a dime for 500K.

                  Glen Johnson would fight Kessler for peanuts.

                    Outstanding offer. It would just about cover Kessler's trainingexpenses.

                      Im sure he was talking about Johnson taking the 500K.
