I can't avoid thinking that possibly the pulling out of that fight is indicative of what his trainers (or himself) really think of him. On the other hand, I understand the need for a tune-up fight, but two tune-ups? That I don't understand. Kessler previously dominated Andrade and he was on the world stage when he fought Calzaghe, why take a step back?

    Also, note that Haussler only has seven KO's in his 29 wins (KO% = 21.1%). That shows me that Kessler currently doesn't want to fight anyone with a big punch. Again, this slightly baffles me because of his the people he has previously fought and beat, but who knows maybe losing to Joe took some of his heart.

    Kessler has to fight Haussler,he is his mandatory,even team palle says it is a shit fight

Kessler previously dominated Andrade and he was on the world stage when he fought Calzaghe, why take a step back? Furthermore, look at Arthur Abraham who after beat Miranda is fighting a rough mandatory with Marquez. Fair enough. But, there is already talk of him meeting Winkie Wright in the beginning of the year and Pavlik in the Spring.

    Gotcha.

    But remember Chad Dawson was recently faced with a similar situation. Chad Dawson's mandatory was Adrian Diaconu, but rather than fight Diaconu for the strap, he decided to relinquish the strap in order to gain recognition from a fight with a bigger name opponent, Antonio Tarver. In that scenario, arguably Dawson was ducking Diaconu to fight someone with less pop, but the point still stands: the utility of a belt is that it gets you champion status and big fights. Tell me I'm wrong, but if you can already land the big fights why settle for a BS mandatory fight unless it is a tune-up (see Pavlik's destruction of Gary Lockett)?

    Another reason to doubt Kessler's current status is his inactivity. Why has Kessler only fought twice (both European club fighters) since his Calzaghe defeat a year ago? Compare his activity and level-of-opposition to another of Calzaghe's victims: Peter Manfredo. Since being destroyed by Calzaghe (six months before the Calzaghe v. Kessler fight), Manfredo has fought 6x, including a losing bout with Jeff Lacy, which was very close, and his next fight is against Sakio Bika. I'm not heaping praise on Manfredo, and I think Bika will maul him, but the inactivity of Kessler may reflect his confidence and motivation.

    Kessler was injured after Calzaghe fight,so therefore his inactivity

    Considering his choices of opponents and his inactivty, you are not a little concerned with Kessler? I understand the injury caused his inactivity, but still...
