Comments Thread For: Bute's Promoter: Mikkel Kessler Taking The Safer Path

[BarrySlisk]

Kessler and Bute are made for each other. 2 soft Euros who shy away from the great fighters. Kessie did fight and lose to calzage and ward humiliated Kessie. Bute's career basically is a joke. Let these 2 soft white slow guys fight it out and then match them with a real fighter. Kessler wanted out of the Super 6 to avoid Ward again and have the 2nd embarrassing loss to the same dude. Bute might be softer than Kupcake Kessler. sad.

So which great fighters does Kessler need to fight in your opinion, before you'll believe he is not scared? In my opinion he tries to fight the best. He does not win them all But he tries. So basicly I think you are wrong.

my God man look at kesslers record there are no significant wins outside of the home job on Froch. Every fight was in Copenhagen. His lopsided losses were to two of the best. Kessler is a very average fighter basically not very good. Now he has chosen the sissie way out to avoid fighting Ward or Froch on the road. Wimps like Kessler should not be allowed to fight. Look at his record it is comprised of no names all at home. Kessler might be the biggest joke in boxing alongside Bute.

It is not relevant how many wins and losses he has. It also is not whether he is a bum in your opinion or not.

The question is whether he is afraid to fight the best. So who again does he need to fight? You said Bute sucks so you probably don't mean him. He already fought Ward, so that leaves...???

And you can't be serious about him being the biggest joke in boxing. Come on. He has 40+ fights and two losses. So Abraham is less of a joke than Kessler? Allan Green is less of a joke?

There is one interesting question! Why do you really hate Kessler so much? He is not an ******* in any way, so it puzzles me. This is not a race issue is it? That's the only logical explanation I can come up with.

You criticize Kessler for fighting mostly at home. Can you tell me how many fights Ward has had outside America (how about in the S6)? Isn't it the norm to mostly fight in your own country?
What about Bute, what about Froch, what about Abraham....

In his 3 biggest fights (Calzaghe, Ward, Froch) Kessler fought 2 out of 3 abroad, so I don't really see the problem here.

Stieglitz is a good fighter, pretty underrated on here actually. Its not a bad fight at all if he goes that route, I would still favor the Danish bot but wouldn't be surprised at all if the over all very solid Stieglitz got the upset win.
