    True story, some fighters you expect more from, Kessler is one of those.

    On the other hand you can't blame him. The 2 times he has left home to fight legit opponents he was thoroughly dominated and lost nearly every single round. I'm sure he has a lot of doubts about trying it again.

      Kessler-Stieglitz fight

      Can't think of a single time where such an inferior fighter made double his more accomplished opponent.

      Bottom line was after turning up their nose at Bute they were gonna have to pay Stieglitz every last dollar they had or they'd have been left out in the cold without this joke of a paper title to try to bait the Super 6 winner with.

      As I have said 100 times. Kessler vs. Bute is the least likely fight to happen in the entire sport, 10 times less likely than Mayweather-Pac cause both guys are terrified of a risky fight and are hoping the big fights just get handed to them without earning them.
      Yes,all Kessler wants is to grab in desperately way, by all means, a belt
      let's say:WBO -being held unjustifiably by Stieglitz.In fact, Kessler wants another shot at the super six winner-avoiding Bute-and expecting likely Froch to be the winner. But, IMO, the winner will be Ward and the result Kessler-Ward or Froch-Ward will be the same ,it doesn't matter how many times they will meet each-other-Ward will be the winner.Anyway,Stieglitz
      grabbed his money-it's already too mach for him,even unexpected-and will
      go to retirement-no enough room for him in the world of boxing at supermi-
      ddle weight division.

        Hitman, Kessler has fought too many good fighters to be the coward you're making him out to be. Butes handlers know that he will lose to the first quality fighter he faces, so they're gonna let him fight bums for good money in Quebec.

                Too many good fighters? Are you serious?

                If you take the guys he has lost to off the resume the only victory that deserves any type of credit is Froch.

                Taking away Froch the argument can be made that Stieglitz has beaten the same level of comp as Kessler.

                  I believe he meant two instead of too, an honest mistake~
