Kessler is merely a virtually unknown #1 contender, that Calzaghe would gain nothing worthwhile from, if he fought him.
I disagree with you here Britkid. Whoever wins between Beyer and Kessler would be a double world champion making a unification fight with Calzaghe a huge fight.
How often do we see a 'genuine' unification where all four belts (WBA, WBC, IBF and WBO) would have been on the line.
I'm sure you being Britkid could tell me the date, venue and outcome of the fight but you know what I'm saying. :P
Mormeck vs O'Neil Bell was a big unification but it didn't count the WBO, Jermain Taylor only holds 3 world title belts as I understand it.
I don't think there is currently a truly undisputed champion at any weight right now.
So a unification fight with either would be huge for Calzaghe.Victory would affirm him as the greatest supermiddleweight of all time.
It's hands down the best fight out there for Calzaghe.
