If Cazlaghe beat Kessler next the mongs would claim Kessler was a hyped up nobody aka Lacy..."wait until he fights a Hopkins or Jones"

If Cazlaghe beat Hopkins or Jones the mongs would say they were old and past their best..."wait until he fights a live body like Winky or Taylor"

If Calzaghe beat Winky or Taylor the mongs would say they were to small......so it goes.
That's cuz it's true. Hopkins and Jones are nowhere near there primes. Why the sudden urge to fight them now (after Hopkins retired) as oppose to years ago? Taylor and Wright are both naturally smaller fighters. That ain't some made up shit. It's true. Still a win over Wright, would be impressive in my view. Taylor not as much since I think he still needs a lot of work. Kessler? There ain't no excuse. Kessler is in his prime right now. He's fought over 35 times. This ain't Lacy and his barely 20 fights. He's got like 5 or 6 former champions on his resume. He's somebody. If Calzaghe beats him, than he can't be knocked. I'll give him credit. Hell, if he beats Kessler I'll never bad mouth Calzaghe again. And I'm talking about a real win. Not one of those "Kessler had him down 3 times, but lost cuz Calzaghe claimed he couldn't continue cuz of a suppose rabbit punch." Or "Kessler beat his ass for 12, but lost cuz they were fighting in Joe's back yard." A real win.
