Eye Injury Causes Mikkel Kessler to Withdraw from Super Six

Next month, Mikkel Kessler was up to fight Allan Green; however, that has now been brought to a halt.  Kessler has withdrawn from the Super Six due to an eye injury that he has had for months now – nearly a year.

Kessler says that he has been advised to simply get some rest, take a break from boxing, and allow his eye to heal completely.  He says that he has been told that it is something that will heal completely in time and that he should have no problem returning next year to the ring.

Kessler defeated Carl Froch in early April and claimed the World Title and felt that he had a true chance at success and winning in the Super Six tournament and it’s a great disappointment to him that he is having to pull out so that he can recover properly and be back in the ring come next year.

Never fret Kessler fans, he has no intentions on quitting his training preparations for next year.  He will continue to train during this time off so that he’ll be ready to jump back in and add to his career records of 43-2 and a total of 32 knockouts.
