Throw Andre Dirrell into the mix fellas. He looked mighy impressive against Hanshaw last time out.

If you throw Dirrell in then you also have to throw Andre Ward in. Maybe also Adonis Stevenson.

Haussler was last in line for an IBF shot i thought (which is why Sauerland signed Berrio) but then he lost to Bute. Stieglitz lost to Andrade in an eliminator and next he fights Bute.
It's so bloody confusing
Haussler's German promoters are trying to force Kessler to defend against him. Haussler is highly ranked even though he hasn't beaten a live body in three years. (even then, it was a split decision in Germany). Haussler has no business fighting for a title and Kessler will beat him easily if the match is made

Don't forget Mads Larsen - he aint looked bad in his return, not bad at all.
Kessler vs Larsen is a fight that really should have been made.

He did look weird and temperamental as well though. It was a great result but I got the impression he didn't exactly know what he was doing in there.

This was a joke of a fgiht, Sartison was literally half Kessler's size.
Looked like he could make LMW.
Not to mention, the guy did not deserve a titleshot...not by a longshot, even in the now empty SMW division.
