That's a badass beard.

Not a good look for him.

But it's nice to see him coming back, he should fight a tuneup to get the rust off then go after the big names.

Great news! I was almost losing hope, had spoken to a couple of people close to the family and Kessler was keeping real quiet about it this time. The Bearded Viking will arise!!

No word on him coming back though. I personally still hope he has fought his last battle.

Why? Do you think he doesn't have what it takes anymore??

That's how a Viking warrior should look.

Well yeah... His output has dropped and going out on a close loss to Carl Froch in the UK is a pretty good way to go.

Another thing is that I would like to see him as an ambassador for the sport here possibly as a commentator (he is a splendid analyst) with a clear voice and I would really hate to have another Star with slurred speech because he had one fight too many.

Should he continue, I would of course still back him, but I'd rather have him commentating for the next 20 years than having another year or two in boxing including an enevitable bitter defeat.

To compensate for his rapidly receding hairline I'd assume
