Kessler-Calzaghe is the best fight for FANS...but it would cost the TV companies much more money for Kessler-Calzaghe than it does for Calzaghe-Manfredo for the same if not MORE viewers.
Yes it is the best fight for us FANS, but surely somewhere it must have registered to Calzaghe that it would have a been a sure way to keep the momentum going after the Lacy win?? Surely. Bika and Manfredo have been extremely poor compensation for a Calzaghe in his prime and looking to see out his career.

Calzaghe is obsessed with Americans and FW has to look after his investment ;)

Im sure there is more money to be made than by fighting the likes of Bika and Manfredo though
Re: What are the best fights for Joe Calzaghe?
He should fight the best for his pride so when he's done he can stand back and say i fought the best win lose or draw it is'nt always about winning and unbeaten records

Re: What are the best fights for Joe Calzaghe?

There sure is
But before you get to the STAR names it's probably better to earn decent money fighting guys you know you can beat rather than fight a guy who's too big a risk for too little reward

But why fight the star names when you are closer to 40 than 30? I prefer Calzaghe being in the position to fight the star names a little bit earlier than this!
Re: What are the best fights for Joe Calzaghe?
if he doesnt fight big name after manfredo fight i give up on him

For fuck sake! ;D
I'm not trying to justify what they're doing/have done is right I'm just trying to point out the score...why the Kessler fight isn't happening at the moment.
When Calzaghe retires his career will be looked at as a "what could have been"...gaurantee it. ;)
Preme will get his knickers in a twist when he reads your post... ;D
