Hopkings may choose to fight Kessler
Well if Kessler puts Andrade away in the upcoming fight. Berhard Hopkings may choose to fight Kessler or Calzaghe after Wright. Maybe we should demand a Calzaghe and Kessler fight next O0 in order to qualify for the old guy :)

So where should calzahge look for the next opponent I´m pretty confident that Manfredo will be a walk in the park.
I know I'm not always writing that good since English its not my preferred language but here is a funny comment from Jan ( also a Dane) maybe he knows Kessler better than the rest of us hahaha:
Name: Jan(DK) Date: 3/13/2007
The Kessler - Andrade will be a great fight. US will be watching a Viking Warrior in the ring and a calm and friendly gay outside the ring. Simply the real deal. US don't miss it!!

Re: Hopkings may choose to fight Kessler
that is a big if.. Bernard has to beat Wright which is not easy. Wright is younger and experienced, maybe not in Bernard's experience level but I think Wright has a good chance to beat Bernard in this fight coming up.

Re: Hopkings may choose to fight Kessler
Hopkins only fights smaller beaten up fighters !!!
If Kessler looks hot against Andrade he wont go near him with a barge pole.

Re: Hopkings may choose to fight Kessler
No way it could ever come off...is Kessler moving up in weight now?! ;D

Re: Hopkings may choose to fight Kessler
Andrade is moving down to 168 to vote for Kessler's titles.

Smaller, beaten up fighters.. HMMM Like Tarver?
If Hopkins handled Tarver, (even a weight-drained Tarver) at 175, it would be foolish to think that Kessler at 168 hits too hard for him.

Re: Hopkings may choose to fight Kessler
good fight i think hopkins is bit too skilled for him though so i pick hopkins to win by 3 rounds

Re: Hopkings may choose to fight Kessler
I didn't know Kessler is gay. Hey, who says there's no progression in professional sports?
-
Re: Hopkings may choose to fight Kessler
Well if Hopkins does beat Wright, and then takes this fight..... Sucks to be a Calzaghe fan. Not that it already doesn't.

Re: Hopkings may choose to fight Kessler
Yeah, it would suck. How long has Kessler been calling out Calzaghe again?

I don't know, but it's obviously not a fight Calzaghe wants. The best thing for Hopkins to do would be to take Kessler if he beats Wright.... Then if he can get by that one again maybe Calzaghe will still want to fight him... So then, Hopkins enters negotiations with Joec, only to pull out last minute and sign to fight Serigo MOra or another contender star. THat would be the icing on the cake, and hilarious to anyone who has gotten fed up with Calzaghe's lack of desire to fight anyone.

Tarver the weight drained crack addict that had a McCallesque breakdown midfight ..... Next Winky Wright the fighter who last knocked somebody out in the last decade .
Safety 1st all the way for Hopkins .

Re: Hopkings may choose to fight Kessler
Everyone at 168 has called joe out... Froch, Kessler, even Berrio has added him to the list.
..But Joe chooses Ashira, a guy plucked from light middle (not even a mandatory) instead of Brian Magee (WBO wont have it he said)
Forced to fight Jeff Lacy - great result for Joe.
Then goes back to cannon fodder like middleweight Sakio Bika (?)
..and now another smaller light-middle in Manfredo.
Joe is a great great fighter - but let's not expect a live opponent until the mega bucks are guaranteed folks unfortunately.

wright may not be hard puncher but he is exceptional boxer that has beat mosley twice and felix trinidad and ike quartey and i hate to say this to you because your calzaghe fan but since when has calzaghe fought exceptional boxer like winky wright ?? this is 50-50 match up and it is a risk i dont see how it cant be just because wright isnt big puncher doesnt mean it isnt risk

Since well before he got his first title in november 2004.
Just because the UK or US press does not choose to print it, does not mean it's not happening.

Excuse me for pointing out the blindingly obvious but Ronald Winky Wright fought most of those fighters at Lightmiddle !!!
Ike Quartey at middle ? 38 year old Ike Quartey inactive for 5 years after losing to Fernando Vargas at lightmiddle ? Shane Mosely who hadnt won in his 3 previous fights ? Tito Trinidad coming back after a 3 year hiatus ? Do me a favour !!!
When he moved up to Middle ( IMO ) he got beat by Jermain Taylor !!!
So why the fuck on Gods green beautifull mother earth are BH and RWW fighting AT llightFUCKINGheavy ?
Its not that i dont rate WW cos i do ! But at lightheavy .?
Hopkins as ive said before on this thread and what so many of you chose to ignore ,fact, Hopkins BOTTLED IT AGAINST JOE CALZAGHE
HE BOTTLED IT
BOTTLED IT
BOTTLED IT
Frank Warren had Joe C sign to fight at the Millenium stadium ok that is a fact only for Bernard Hopkins to go elsewhere .
That is stone cold fact .
Frank Warren went on the record and said as much !!!!!!!!! Fact !
They then offered Hopkins more money to fight in America !!! Fact !!!!!
And Liquid
take a look Kesslers check his record he needs to be fighting more often and start getting his arse in gear, i like the guy but 4 defences in 3 years ?
He aint calling nobody out . He needs to be busy and make the fight with his fists .
So far he aint done shit !!!!

Re: Hopkings may choose to fight Kessler
Gordy, your a tool.
go on boxrec and then come back and tell me how many light-middles JOE has fought out of his last 5 fights you wazzok!
-
Re: Hopkings may choose to fight Kessler
Difference Joe is in the twighlight of his career after 10 yeard and 20 defences and Kessler has been a champion for 3 years you dick .
At this stage after 20 defences you want the big fights which unfortunately for Mikkel Kessler means exposure on American TV ,HBO for who Joe C now fights !!!!
The big money fights are Taylor and Hopkins !!!
Nobody except the hardcore fight fans know Kessler from a hole in their arse you complete peen ass
Im the 1st to admit Joe hasn't pushed on and that Manfredo is a marking time fight to get him exposure in the US where Manfredo is coming of his 2 biggest wins and is a well known name !!!!
Thats why Kessler might not feature in his plans , ok dingus ?
Mikkel Kessler - Joe Calzaghe PPV in a nation of 3 million .

Re: Hopkings may choose to fight Kessler
Obviously you never bothered to check what i was saying did you?
Time to take the TOOL to school:
Listen gay gordy, i don't know why worship the Calzaghe - perhaps a welsh kid at school stopped your boyfriend getting a beat-down from the girls in the year above ;)
Your point was made about Winky beating up light-middles ?
Well what i was saying to you was that BIKA had only 1 fight at 168 (which was a NC after 2 rounds) and ASHIRA had never even fought at 168 - and hasn't since!
Now the overhyped Lacy has left the building - Joe is feasting on another hobbit in Peter Manfredo
.... a guy whom was beat up at 147 !! LOL
So therefore you point is..mute !

Re: Hopkings may choose to fight Kessler
Hopkins is still crafty but Kessler would be a lot for the old man to handle. A young strong kid who is determined to make a name for himself, sounds a lot like Jermain Taylor.

Re: Hopkings may choose to fight Kessler
I see no reason for Hopkins to want this fight? If he gets past Winky then the logical choice would be Taylor (if he feels he can win) that would be a fairytail ending.
He only fought Taylor the 1st time because he new JT was the future of the division so I guess the logic behind Kessler could be that BHop feels MK is the future of the SM division.
Personally I don't think Hopkins wants anything to do with Joe C or he would make certain Joe doesn't make history. BHop made 20 defenses and Joe's next fight is for his 20th so it wouldn't be hard to promote, especially if they both win their next fights.
sidenote: I would have picked Winky over BHop if it weren't for the fact that Hopkins eats southpaws for breakfast!!
