The weirdest thing is that the article states that Team Kessler's American agent was not available for comment - that agent is Michael Marley, owner and editor of Boxing Confidential (I know he didnt write this very story, but still.)

I absolutely believe it. These are the type of fights Mogens Palle loves to make. Big names who can barely keep their hands up anymore and throw them in with much bigger guys. He tried for a long time, around the time of Hearns last fight, to bring Thomas Hearns to Denmark to fight Brian Nielsen....at heavyweight!

The article says his "inside source is LESS than reliable but at times delivers some gems"

Tongue in cheek job?

Vargas would get spanked by Kessler.

he won't fight him.

I thought Vargas was supposed to get his much needed back surgery and that after that, there was no way he could come back to fighting. By the way, does the guy plump up or does he plump up. He looked like he was about to eat David Diaz when he bent over to talk to him.

Doubt it's true, be very dissapointed in Kess if it is. Not sure who could be available foe Kess next, but he doesn't seem to be pushing for anything. Pavlik will be busy in Sept and then hopefully fight Abraham, Bute is busy and Froch with Taylor hopefully. After getting one keep busy fight Kess should really push for the winner of Froch-Taylor or Bute, he needs to get back in the mix while he's still at his physical peak, he'll be pushing 30 soon.

In no way should this happen...what a farce.Vargas looked like he was in his 2nd tri-mester last time out vs.Mayorga and could get seriously injured at this stage vs. kessler.
