Comments Thread For: Mikkel Kessler on Andre Ward: He Doesn't Have The Guts!

[cortdawg25]

If over there make more $$$ for ward, then he might go for it after he takes a break and fight a couple lower level guys

If he beats Stieglitz, I guess it would make some sense. But, Ward already beat him handily, without out much difficultly at all.

Kessler has always fought bums at home, about 40 of them at this point in his career. He has consistently fought a much lower caliber of competition compared to Ward and has only travelled because if he didn't nobody would take him any more seriously than they did Brian Nielsen.

You make a good point though about Kessler traveling, even if it proves my point more than yours.

Kessler went to Wales, got dominated. Went to Oakland, got dominated.

Two fights against world class opponents and he was schooled each time. Based on that there is no reason to believe he can command a world class fighter to come to his place. Especially not when Kessler has a promoter that robbed Lebedev, Cunningham and Chisora in such blatant fashion.

Yes and at the point in Ward's career when Kessler travelled to fight him, he was completely unknown and had only fought bums. So its the same thing. But whatever, I dont care to see this rematch.

Im not going to bother to respond to this. Ive told you at least 3 times what I meant when I posted yet you still insist on misinterpreting it and putting your own spin on my point. Carry on. Im not going to try to reason with blatant ignorance and ******ity any longer.

get off your high horse. stop trying to be the smartest guy in the room.

you don't respond because you have no answer. just keep calling people corny names like tosser and thicko.

we were talking about travel, I brought up distance. Kessler only went to oakland because he thought it was an easy entry into the american market. He lost and now he wants to cry. Just like khan.

You tried to paint him like some traveling hero. He traveled to england and oakland. The fight in england was against a bigger star. The fight in oakland was in the worlds biggest boxing market.

In his other 42 fights. 39 took place in denmark, a country way smaller than the state of california. What a road warrior he is. Hell you can fit over 20 denmarks in california.

I bet ward has way more frequent flyer miles than kessler. So travel is out.

Your "he didn't have to" argument already got shot down by the other poster. He had to take those fights if he was going to be someone. Otherwise he would have been a big ol star in tiny lil denmark.

You wont respond with anything but weak insults.

You surely wont talk about the travel of taylor and dirrell in the tourney.

Since kessler is no longer the bigger star and denmark certainly isn't the bigger market, all 3 of the points you tried to make just got "peeleft:

i've had enough with this pro american all great fights take place in america attitude. how little we do we forget that mike tyson-brien nielson took place in denmark. end thread!

Actually I didn't try to paint him as anything. I have no care for Mikkel Kessler or his career. You have tried to paint this as some "Euro" vs US thing from the outset by constantly misinterpreting my points and bringing up irrelevant *****.

Bottom line is that Kessler could have stayed in Denmark and fought bums and made a hell of a lot of money. But he chose to fight in these guys home towns. I think he also fought Mundine in Australia.

No one mentioned distance, its the fact that you go into the lions den, you give up certain advantages you would get at home. You clearly fail to comprehend this point and keep bringing up some bollox about frequent flyer miles. What a buffoon.

Kessler is such a sore loser and I lost the little respect I had of him.
To me he has always been an overrated fighter who fights in straight lines.Give him anyone who can move and he will be exposed.He can beat fighters with sticky feet like Froch but anyone with movement will beat him.
He ranks high up there with other c.u.n.t.s like Amir Khan,Junior Witter & Victor Ortiz in fighters I really hate.

And do you really matter?

[megas30]

Kessler, you are overrated and got exposed. You really need to earn your way back to Ward. Dirrel needs an opponent, so why don't you go after him?

[jtcs1981]

And you dont have the skills.

America is the Mecca of boxing FACT!!!!!
