    Kessler V Froch is what the fans want, it would generate a big pay day for both of them, if you want
    action it the only fight out there, Ward can't draw flys.

    True.

    I'd love to see Mikkel get his revenge on Ward, but Froch-Kessler II would be a more entertaining and more popular fight.

    I am not sure Kessler would come to Nottingham either though. It would be refreshing to see Kessler and Froch in the UK, and then if Froch is successfu,l a trilogy decider in Las Vegas. It would be equally startling to see Ward face his mandatory in Denmark. I would also like a Triumph speed triple and a night in with Kelly Brook but it is probably unrealistic to hope that any of these things will ever happen.

    Ward said in social media that a trip to England to fight Froch after he dismantled Bute is an interesting prospect but I doubt he travels.

    He does not need to travel to Denmark to fight Kessler as he is viewed as the man at the weight. Now that isn't fair given his tourney run and never leaving Oakland but that's just the way it is.

    I truly believe that Kessler will never leave Denmark again and instead will do his best impersonation of Sven Ottke for the remainder of his career regardless of what he says in the press.

    Carl already went to his neck of the woods

    Ward isn't the fight for Kessler right now; a rematch with Froch makes more sense from a monetary standpoint and a risk standpoint.

    Kessler dominated Magee in impressive fashion. He's had a good year. No huge wins, but the knockouts were exactly what he wanted.

    Why does his boxrec page say he's fighting Pavlik? Is that real?
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    Considering Ward's history of not going far and considering the reputation of integrity of boxing in Denmark; It's highly doubtful he'd agree to it.

    Yes it is real. Your disbelief is a palpable feeling many of us share. Epic face palms all round in dismay at the scope of Wards ambition.
