not quite the strategy i suggested....
Whats the point of Kessler responding to his own challenge????
Joe as usual just ignored it.
Kessler can't just sit arround waiting for the rest of his career - hoping that calzaghe will suddently change his mind and look Kessler's way. So for now Kessler has just finalized a deal with Tsypko for a june fight.
It's all in Joe's hands. If he want's it he can have it. But for whatever reason Kessler and the WBA-belt is very low on his wishlist.

Undefeated, unified and *ahem* longest reigning champ in boxing - I see where you're coming from though, all Calzaghe's done is beat every man in front of him and shown us one of the greatest boxing classes in recent history. I mean, if this is all he's got to give, Joe is a loser and Kessler is clearly the man.

You're right, Kessler is one of the best SMW in the world, and because he's undefeated against world class opponents such as Anthony Mundine, we should completely disregard the champs similarly undefeated record. After all, surely his record must be padded, noone is good as Kessler and come close to HIS acheivements. Kesller is the man!

Great fight. Want to be a pound for pound champ? You're going to have to step up a few more times. Hint... Peter Manfredo Jr and Allen Green isn't a step up
Yeah For christs sake Joe, all this harping on about being the longest reigining champ, the first unified Super middleweight champ in years and your undefeated record is getting boring. If you really are the best, lets see you take some real fights, go back in time and face Sugar Ray Robinson, maybe then you can fight Kessler, because Kessler wouldve won. You know why??
[b]KESSLER IS THE MAN!!!
;D

No we don't know the details, but here is what Calzaghe said about Kessler just the other day:
Quote:
"Mikkel Kessler is a good fighter, he's undefeated and probably a better fighter than Beyer but then again, does Kessler mean that much outside of Denmark? These are the things that have to be looked at. Obviously, come November, if the fights can't be made with Tarver or one of the top middleweights, then maybe we'll go that route."
In other words... IF everything else fails or IF hell freezes over... Calzaghe MAY have to look at Kessler as an option. For now - no way.
Re: Calzaghe talks! Tarver, Kessler, Wright, Taylor, & more...it makes sense...
to be honest i want to see calzaghe in there with kessler more than any other opponent....
at the age of 33 though, calzaghe knows his time is limited and is looking to make only money fights before he retires. personally i think fighting kessler next would be ideal....but we dont know what kessler is demanding in order to go over to wales. it is a frustrating situation....
i really would like to see calzaghe try and make unification bouts instead of looking up to lightheavyweight and tarver....
we'll see....
