Mikkel Kessler set for retirement

[Holywarrior]

Shocked he isn't looking for an Abraham fight.

Maybe his "outstanding" career is going to continue?

As someone has already mentioned, the Abraham fight surely makes too much sense?

I would watch it in a NY minute.

You wouldn't watch what? Kessler-Abraham?

Nah I said I would. They could be in wheel chairs and I would fancy that fight.

My bad. Yeah it's a decent fight. Should have probably happened a few years ago. It's kinda a bronze medal fight too because Ward/Froch/Groves is where the real action is.

Not too much of a shock; I believe he said prior to the Froch rematch if he loses he will retire.

He had a great career and gave us memorable fights. War Kessler

Ward makes boring fights to me but I would take Kessler against Groves or Abraham any day. No sense in Kess facing Ward or Froch at this stage unless Carl comes out flat against Groves again. George is the goods as far as I can tell. He almost outclassed Carl last time out.

Sad if true. He looked good in his last outing even though he lost. I think he can still compete at the highest level if the desire is there.

If he's out, that's a shame.....like others said, he could be champ again with Abraham... if he's out though, would be nice to see him help other fighters from Denmark reach that world level. Nielsen is rising IMO. Still needs to step up, Chudinov is meh
