Calzaghe's getting older and he knows it, he would have very little to gain by beating the guy again, especially since his chances of winning a seconf fight decrease by the month.
If Kessler beat Pavlik it would make the proposed Kelly/Joe fight redundant though.

I'm actually wondering more if Pavlik beats Kessler would Calzaghe then entertain a fight with Kelly? I would think if Kessler beats Pavlik, Joe would just say he beat a MW making his 1st jump up; why bother with a rematch?

This is what everyone would say if Joe beat Pavlik probably..."He was moving up in weight"...."Kelly wasn't that good anyway"...
Story of Joe's life...Atleast If he fights jones hell have 5 million plus reasons to not care.

I doubt Joe would even want a re-match even if everyone screamed for it.He beat him fairly comfortably the first time round. I dont think calzaghe wants to have eat some of those uppercuts again just to beat Kessler a 2nd time.

Calzaghe will fight RJJ win or lose he will cash the check and hang them up. Can't say I'd blame him, he's made a few great paydays now and still has his wits about him, couldn't think of a better time to retire.

True, which is what I alluded to in a post a few days ago in another Pav/Cal thread. I really don't see where fighting Kelly or RJJ will help him cement that legacy. One is past it and the other hasn't proven himself in any way at a higher weight. Though I would love to see Cal fight Kelly, I'm more in favor of seeing Kelly with other guys at SMW before he fights Cal; if he ever will; i.e Froch, Mundine, Andrade, etc.
