Mikkel Kessler, Andre Ward agree to rematch?

Super-middleweight pair Andre Ward and Mikkel Kessler have reportedly agreed to face each other in Denmark.

Ward, the current WBA super champion, and Kessler, a four-time former world title holder, first met in 2009 when Ward won the bout by technical decision.

However, according to Danish newspaper Ekstra Bladet, Ward has agreed to fight outside of America for a high-profile bout for the first time in his professional career to face Kessler, who will be competing in his native Denmark for the first time in nearly two years.

It is believed that the rematch is likely to take place in the first week of November, with official confirmation of the contest due to be announced on Tuesday.
