Just looked at both their twitter accounts and they both tweeted on the 9 October that they are on their way for a Sauerland press conference? Is this a possible fight?

This would be interesting to watch, Kessler a veteran champion and Groves coming off a European championship win.

If it happens its a must win for Groves, two world title losses and a European title win, this would prove he is getting back to competing for a world title but if he losses it proves he isn't ready to compete at world title level and needs more experience.

Kessler a win would put him in the top ten with any of the top titles (WBC,IBF,WBA,WBO) but really since he is a proven contender he could fight for any of them with a solid win and a loss wouldn't damage his drawing power for a big fight.

No, this was to announce the new Sauerland TV deal

You know, this would be an interesting fight.

Agreed. Can't see Groves risking his mandatory spot for it though. It's a fight where George definietly could outbox Mikkel (pre Rebrasse) - particularily at the stage in Kessler's career but Kessler knocking him spark out would'nt be overly shocking either.

I'd say that groves has a chance to box and move maybe pull a degale fight type performance. If Mikkels 80% what he was he beats George decisively. At his best hed have stopped George I believe.

At this stage I wouldn't be surprised if George stopped him either, unless he's as gunshy as he seemed last out. I fancy him to win via UD as Kessler should be well passed his prime, but he was good against Froch last time. It's a very interesting match up, I would love to see it, it's easily dissected many different ways. A proper test for Groves too.

I'd pay to watch this fight , I'm sure someone can make it pay per view

At this moment, Kessler would be a better fight for Groves than he would be for Froch. Though I'd have no problem with the winning getting a shot.

That's why it's taking them so long.

This was just to announce Sauerland's new tv deal wasn't it

No

No win fight for GG; if he beats MK then CF will say he did all the damage and that MK was a washed out shell of his former self; if GG loses then let the abuse start about how he is only European level.
