    As funny as that sounds I highly doubt it. In this era of world title glory being distributed to fighters like mail he will become a belt holder. Now will he be the next Felix Sturm is the real question.

      But I'm not familiar with the politics or promotional issues involved with getting the two of them in the ring.
      Kessler vs. Abraham is not possible due to telvision interests is the broadcaster that shows the abrahammer in Germany, can be viewed for free in Denmark. So there would be no danish PPV and therefore not the proper financial incitament for this fight to happen.

        Yeah, would be interesting to see him with Golovkin. It would be a showcase fight for GGG at 168 against credible opposition.

          Say what again? You already hating, and he's not even stepped onto the scene yet. Give him time, he's not with Mogens Palle, he won't be overprotected like Nielsen. Plus the danes have woken a bit more up to boxing, after Kessler, there's no way to promote a "bum" into being the Jesus of boxing again like with Brian Nielsen.

          Brian Nielsen had good defense though, taking all those shots with a wall of face.

            Figured there would be something like that in the way, thanks for the clarification.

              GGG fights Junior in a moneyspinner at 168. After that he'll return to 160.

              But it would be a great fight though.
