That is quite an achievement, as he would have been in competition against the glittering array of danish world-class sportmen and women.
he should be honoured.
"First he (Kessler) defended his WBA title in January, when he stopped Canadian Eric Lucas in the 10th round. And in October he beat WBC-champ Markus Beyer by a third-round knockout to unify the two titles."

Respect. Kessler's a hell of a fighter that does indeed deserve his props...it's just a crying shame he catches so much shit over a bunch of wack-assed fans that think he's the second coming of Christ.
Well think of it this way. Denmark is a very small country. How many big danish fighters can any of you guys name ?
So the danish fans are very exited, the danish boxing fans have waited for years to have a real champ to support.
The biggest danish boxer so far was Brian Nielsen. A chubby fighter who always looked somewhat out of shape http://www.answers.com/topic/brian-nielsen ( and he was a joke as a boxer, but entertaining, he made me laugh ) So offcourse some people let the feelings get away with them, most of Kesslers fans are nearly normal as me :lickish:
I hope that he will shine in 2007 8)
