Kessler against Froch on 28 feb 2009(perhaps)

[Rantcatrat]

For the last time.Kessler did not duck Miranda

Kessler was in negotiations for a fight with Miranda. He was then made mandatory challanger for the WBA title against Mundine, so broke off negotiations to pursue that fight.

People are free to make their own judgements about that decision. Some feel that beating Miranda would have been good for Kessler's image in the USA, others that the title belt gives him leverage in securing the fights he wants.

Mundine, rather than taking another beatdown from Kessler, said he was going to MW and vacated his title. The title shot was then offered to Edison Miranda. Miranda, by this point, was negotiating with Abraham and chose to turn down the Kessler fight and stay with the Abraham one.

The fact that Mogens Palle went to the extent of asking the WBA to move Miranda up in their rankings to allow him to fight for the title (as Miranda had never beaten a top 50 SMW) should prove to all but the most delusional that Kessler had no interest in avoiding Miranda

All you need to do is watch the opening moments of Miranda-Abraham 2. ShowTime themselves said Kessler biitched out. ShowTime has no stake in either fighter. They have no reason to lie. I believe them over anything you or Morgens Palle (LOL) have to say.

and you believe Miranda and ShowTime more,you are a moron,Kessler is not afraid of no-one,Miranda is just a overratted US bum

Miranda isn't from the United States - he is Columbian.

Who really cares if Kessler wanted a soft touch after Calzaghe beat him? The problem is he took two soft touches. Hopefully, it doesn't turn into a pattern. The division is too deep.

Moreover, it turned out to be a stupid move because Miranda was ripe for the taking. Abraham demolished him in the next fight.
