Comments Thread For: Kessler: Bute Low-Balled Me, Johnson Can Beat Him

[Heeb]

Let's go, Glenn!

Kessler is the past and Ward can't even fill his backyard with free tickets, hell he can't even keep his crowd awake.

You don't know what you're talking about. Ward actually gets good crowds at the Oracle Arena in Oakland.

no, Johnson CAN'T beat Bute -- in fact, Bute will not only win but will put a real beat-down on Johnson, winning by TKO in a late middle round

[Ravens Fan]

If Bute struggled against Andrade - and he was lucky in the first fight - then Johnson is going to give him fits. Johnson blocks punches with his gloves, not his face like Andrade, and he is much more intelligent in his attack.

Just how did Bute struggle against Andrade? Because the fight I watched Bute won every thing but the last 20 seconds of the last round and that is hardly much of a struggle.

Exactly.Kessler was offered more money from the beginning than all others
(Pavlik ,Johnson).He was the main target for Bute and everybody was waiting
for this fight-especially if the fight would have taken place in Montreal-a
crowd of 20k people would had been assured.But Kessler preferred to take
the easy way of the less resistance-target:WBO belt from Stielitz.Probably
it's a better move for him because everybody's looking for to get rid off this fraud in person of R Stieglitz.

WTF, he offered him 750.000 dollars NOT 3 million, Kessler would have accapted that. Get your sources straigtened out dude!

Mikkel Kessler recently sat down with Lionheart Boxing to discuss a variety of subjects, including his upcoming challenge for the WBO super middleweight title against champion Robert Stieglitz, the reason why a fight with IBF champ Lucian Bute fell apart, whether Glen Johnson stands a chance to beat Bute, and more. Kessler faces Stieglitz on November 5 in Copenhagen, and Bute returns on the same day in Canada against Johnson.

I told dudes a while back...Kessler knocks this dude spark out....trust me!!!....he don't want it with the Viking Warrior.....I'm with Kessler...hope the oldman gets lucky...I swear I do!!

Kessler saying Johnson's style is more difficult for him than Ward's is one of the most laughable things I've ever heard since I became a boxing fan.

We're talking about a guy who schooled him for every second of every round. I guess going by Kessler's statement Johnson would knock him out inside of 6 rounds.

Bute struggled against Andrade in the sense that he would have lost that fight if the referee didn't save him.

Kessler doesn't know as much as he thinks about boxing, thats why Calzaghe schooled him. Lucian Bute already fought Johnson in a fighter named Andrade. Except Johnson covers up better. This will be a decision win for Bute. If Kessler is so confident in Johnson winning, why doesn't he put his money on Johnson to win?

Kessler just seems bitter about the purse he was offered.
