Not even close taeth

Kessler had a ridiculous laundry lists of demands and amenities he wanted, kinda like a movie diva in her dressing room type requests like the skin removed from his grapes, naked pictures of Bea Arthur, his own personal ass wiper...

You really take the cake taeth seriously.

Kessler knew it was useless to fight him, just like Mayweather did about Margarito.
Kessler went on to fight 2 nobodies and Mayweather passed on Margarito and instead fought-for and won the lineal Welterweight championship of the world


Not a real good comparison

You dont know shit,MORON

KESSLER DUCKS MIRANDA!!!!!

There are a few people in this that keep repeating this.

If you are one of these listen up for once....:

Kessler's team wanted Miranda recognised as the top opponent for Kessler first so that they could make the fight for a belt. As such, the team lobbied the WBA and surprise suprise Miranda got ranked as top contender in the next rankings about 10 days after Miranda's offer. Kessler having worked hard to get Miranda ranked now made his team a better offer. Only to find that suddenly Miranda didn't want any of it
Dont be calling out Moran...
You listen up!

I will tell you EXACTLY how it went down:

Yes, it is true that Palle has great pull with the WBA and indeed worked to get Miranda ranked high enough to make the fight for a possible vacant title. Miranda made it very very clear he wanted to fight Kessler. A vacant title would have made it that much more desirable for Miranda! The fight was as good as done. Kessler's team ask for a movie star list of demands, and Miranda's team (wanting the fight so badly) agreed to each and every one. Then, out of nowhere, Palle disappeared and returned no calls, not from Miranda's team, not from HBO. There were deadlines to meet for HBO and they came and went. Sauerland came along during this time and offered for Abraham to come to the States and settle the score. With no Kessler in sight and the deadline passed, Miranda was happy to take this opportunity and signed the deal. After it was publically known that Showtime had sealed the Miranda vs Abraham II deal, Palle shows back up and starts acting like Miranda backed out of the fight with Kessler.

So, you make the call. Was it Kessler ducking Miranda? Or was it Palle ducking the fight? Who knows. But the bottom line is, Miranda wanted that fight and Kessler's team was at fault for it slipping through their hands.
