Actually he was going to fight Allan Green. So gets your facts straight bottle boy.
Kessler wasn't worried about that fight specifically. He knew he'd win that one easily and that it would put him into the semifinals where he would be obligated to travel to the US.
The last 2 times Kessler left Denmark, he got his ass beaten to a pulp. He quite simply didn't want any piece of Froch or Ward anywhere other than Denmark so he bailed on the tournament.
Now it's clear that is why he did it. As you can see here Sauerland is so terrified of sending Kessler outside of his own borders that they are willing to make a huge offer to get them there.
Thankfully neither Froch nor Ward are even gonna take this joker seriously. They will target Bute and if they can't get that fight we will see Ward move up to 175 and Froch would be perfectly happy to fight any number of other guys at 168 but he certainly won't go to Denmark again.
Froch plans on going to 175 and specifically wants a Pascal rematch which he knows he can get a nice payday for. Has Ward said that he's going up 100% too?
Bute wants to fight the S6 winner in Las Vegas or New York especially if it's Ward and if Kessler will only fight in Denmark i can definitely see Ward taking a Bute fight before a Kessler rematch.
