Mogens Palle cancels meeting with Frank Warren, starts negotiations with Mundine
Danish press is reporting today that Palle has cancelled the meeting he was supposed to have with Frank Warren. Supposedly because he is tired of being the second choice, with Warren and Calzaghe having made it clear that they are after Taylor first. Palle on the other hand reveals that negotiations have started for a rematch against Anthony Mundine.
I don't expect any of you to understand Danish, but just to prove I am not just making it up, here ya go anyway:

I dont really know what to make of this. First, this may very well just be a smokescreen. Secondly it does make good sense to start looking around for other options for Kessler's next fight, when Calzaghe is anyway looking the other way. And Mundine is obviously among the top fighters at 168, currently rated third by The Ring (behind only Calzaghe and Kessler), and seemingly he has improved lots since 2005. So if Calzaghe is unavailable, Mundine might just be the toughest opponent out there currently at 168. However it would still feel a bit like going backwards to rematch a guy, Kessler have already soundly beaten on his own home turf.
Anyway, this is boxing, and this involves Mogens Palle, so nothing should be taken for granted until both fighters are actually standing in front of each other in the ring ready to fight.

Well hurrah for the dickh...s. The danish promotor has cancelled the meeting with Franky boy because he is pissed that Warren is negotiating with the Taylor camp.
Palle don't like to be the second choice and will now look to Mundine as Kesslers next opponent... buhuuu get over it. I think the the managers are gay lovers since they are such a nice couple and full of it.
Thankyou sir Morgens Palle you sir are a wanker.
So instead of Calzaghe we have Kessler-Mundine in the works, but did Mundine not just sign on to a "title" defense ?

Just merge these two fella's.
It will be interesting to see how this news pans out. I dread to think of the amount of heat Frank and Joe would have got had it been them that pulled the plug.

Is Mogans Palle another version of Frank Warren?
Good luck on ever seeing Kessler & Calzaghe fight. I just don't see it. These two arsehole promotors have too much ego to do it.
If Kessler can't get Calzaghe, he should try and get unification bout with Berrio to force the issue. Then he would hold three of the four alphabet world titles and it would force Calzaghe to fight him he he wants to be recognised as the #1 Super-Middle of his era.
I'd rather see Calzaghe fight Taylor first anyway.
Re: Mogens Palle cancels meeting with Frank Warren, starts negotiations with Mun
Yup, just what all the rest of you said....promoters suck.....big ego's...and it sounds like goodbye for hopes of Calzaghe v Kessler. To be honest, this is getting farcicle, but Mundine is not in the same league as Kessler and would likely get blown away. He needs a proper challenge like Sakio Bika.... *insert sarcasm smiley*
