I always thought he might not be too keen to come to Nottingham and possibly lose this when he can make good mone in Denmark against lesser opponents but according to Tris Dixon's twitter Kessler has apparently said:

"I beat you once and I will beat you again. Enjoy your belt while you have it. And let me take care of business against Brian Magee first. Of course I am ready to fight you again, any time, any place"

Sounds promising

:happy fingers crossed this fight gets made. Hopefully sooner rather than later. The Bute fight is now completely pointless and I hope Bute's team does the right thing and pull out.

 

[Nyanners :sad5]

Kessler is an absolute warrior, and it will do even more for his legacy if he can beat Froch at this point in time, I think it means more than the last fight, which is something you don't often see in rematches these days. I wonder how many people will actually pick Kessler to win again though.

Popped a chub at work.

It's the fight I want to see most. And I can't pick against Froch here. Carl has gotten significantly better since their first fight IMO, whereas Kessler has slipped. He was badly hurt against green too. Froch could take him out

I honestly reckon Carl will get the stoppage in the rematch. He has come on so far since that night in Denmark while Kessler has only been inactive and on the decline.

I'd be seriously tempted to this, please let it happen next summer in the city ground!

Kessler has said a couple of times previously that he'd like to come over to the UK for a big fight, he said it during the Super Six. With Carl's rep right now I think he's serious about coming over. Carl stops him in eight.

Anyone who dislikes Kessler seriously needs to fuck off out the Sport, hes everything that Boxing should be about.

1) Classy & great role model
2) Exciting to watch
3) A warrior
4) Win or lose he comes back everytime
5) A legend

All the above Ward, Brook, Mayweather and a range of other boring bellends will never be no matter if they remain undefeated after 100 fights.

Stadium attendance, probable sky box office and Showtime/HBO should take an interest in it. Given 2013 could be the final year for both it makes too much sense financially not to happen

YES, really want this fight.

I don't think anyone dislikes Kessler, do they? I agree with each of your five points, but would like to think that most fans of boxing would? What's not to like? I'm a massive Kessler fan, I just think that Carl has his number in a rematch.

 

[Bryn]

I'm there if it's in the UK.

I could do with a 'like' button around now.

After the Ward fight people was calling him a bum and overrated and was cool to mock the guy. i don't care of ward beats him everytime and wins every round kessler will always hold my respect more. Boxing is much more than just about winning.
