    Kessler might have been on that short list of opponents that HBO is willing to air on their network

        I'll take this thread with a grain of salt since its very unlikely that Ward will ever leave the bingo hall that he competes in.
        didn't ward headbutt Kessler and cut him bad also? Kessler should demand PED testing for ward who was throwing around froch who was the strongest SM I saw at the time

          Surprised Andre won't do a tune up but when you think of it he didn't have any options other than facing a name.

            At this point Kessler is a tune up I'm afraid.

            If the fight gets signed that is.

              Your reputation is on the line with this one I'm afraid. After your last Kessler-Ward thread and the $10M Povetkin-Wilder thread, you're on thin ice buddy.

                Haha. Well I'm just quoting papers here. Not my story, and I'm not sure I hope it gets made!

                And the Povetkin - Wilder thread was excellent, revealing and exposing.

                  "I'm sure we can persuade Ward. We got HBO backing. Its probably just up to Kessler".

                  The dane announced his retirement just last week and hasn't been in the ring since a decision loss to Carl Froch in London nearly two years ago.
                  Who wants to really see this fight? I don't. The first fight wasnt close.

                    It's how ward won the title

                      Just watched the second Froch fight a couple of days ago and Kessler seemed lightyears away from his devastating best. don't think an extra two years will do him any good.


                      froch's best win, doe!!!



                      honestly, kessler looked a bit less against ward than he was against calzaghe. the dude is looking to schedule his 50th fight, and had freaking eye problems. not hands, not cuts, freaking eyes.
