      Why would it need to be another opponent for May 19th? He should just retire, I don't see him having enough left to ever be a force at SMW again

        Maybe Stieglitz wants to return sooner? Maybe he doesn't want to wait again? Maybe Kessler wants an easier fight after nearly one year out

          If you need two tune ups to fight Stieglitz, then you should just retire.

            He can still beat the Carl Froch's of the world.

              are you serious? He has lost twice in his career to the best super middle weights in the world at the time he fought them. Hardly a B/C class fighter, I'd currently rate him as second in the world at Super-Middle, at a time when the division is stocked with quality opposition.

                  I thought Froch won that one but it was what? 2 years ago? Irrelevant

                    I thought Froch won it too. Maybe Kessler Promoter jumping in the ring like an idiot made the judges feel they had to give it to him so he doesnt feel bad.

                    Kessler is garbage. I have never thought highly of him.
