Jubilant Kessler: Vision has improved!

[Sweet Jesus]

Lucian Poop Chute, Kessler, Dirrel, and Abraham should fight in a four man tourney once Ward whips Abraham's ass so we can figure out who is the toughest out of all those panzies.

Abraham doesn't lack toughness, he lacks skill.

Are you seriously implying that Kessler said goodbye to a certain win over Green, a semifinalberth against Froch and 5M USD in pursemoney with no real injury?

$5 million? Where do you get that number from? It would be interesting to know the purses for the Super Six contestants

That's actually a good point. Hard for me to believe Dirrell was asking for more money vs. Ward if there was a $5M purse. I mean $2.5M for Andre Dirrell to fight Ward. Where does he think he'll ever make more money that in his career? With the style that fights with?

$5M for Kessler-Green? Man, Showtime is losing mega money if that's even close to being true.

To me you have to criticize BOTH Kessler and Dirrell for their miraculous recoveries. But if you're going to give one of them a pass then you have to do the same for the other.

Otherwise it's hypocrisy.

I want to see him fight Froch again.

Bute would be a great fight, but dont think Kessler should go through him to get a shot at the s6 winner. Let Bute fight Dirrell or a semifinal loser.

Why shouldn't he fight Bute? Both have been promised a shot at the S6 winner. What better way to decide who gets the first shot than in a fight between the 2 of them?

You've said so many times that Bute hasn't fought anybody, but when your boy becomes available, he shouldn't fight Bute?? Bute is the best fight possible for Kessler until the end of the tournament. If Kessler does as you say, I call for ducking. Hopefully, there is still a warrior in the Viking.

The situations of Dirrell and Kessler were completely different.

Kessler was about to fight Allan Green. That means a W.

Dirrell was about to fight Ward. His close friend. He first was supposed to fight him in September, but the fight was postponed because they couldn't agree on a location. The fight was postponed 3 weeks before the original date (September 25th, I think). At that time, Dirrell still hadn't said anything about an injury. Either he wasn't training for his upcoming fight, or he wasn't injured at all. Why wouldn't he train for his fight? If he couldn't train because of his injury, why didn't he postpone the fight sooner than 3 weeks before it?

From the start, Kessler said it would be a 9 months recovery. Dirrell was always vague and didn't seem to know much about his own injury.

All I said was Kessler and Dirrell have insane recuperating abilities. That is all.

Btw did anyone see on Fight Camp 360 when the Dirrell family was showing a tape of Dirrells wedding and he is on the floor dancing and shit, doesn't look like a guy with neurological problems to me and Kessler is not medically fit to fight but he is somehow able to drive a car.

$5M seems reasonable for Kessler because of Danish TV PPV money.

Kessler should fight a scrub in June, so he can be ready to fight in August or September against Bute. If he fights Stelgitz in June, he probably wont fight until October/November. I wouldn't mind a fight vs Steligitz, but I want to see Kessler Bute.
