What if Kessler grabs the IBF belt?

How would that change things in the SMW division?

If he does that, he would make himself a bigger attraction to
the big american names (Taylor, Hopkins etc....) than Calzaghe.

IMO it would be like beating Calzaghe without fighting him.

I would like to see what you all think.

I don't think so. Kessler already has two belts and I'm sure he doesn't wanna pay the sanctioning fees for three. I think he should just defend his titles until he can get a JoeCal unification.

But Joe won't fight him, he's not eve on Joe's radar.

Exactly. Whatever Mikkel does, there's no point in just hanging around hoping and waiting to get a shot at JC - coz that just seems very unlikely to ever happen.

Don't know about the belts. Would like to see him unify them all, but good point about the fees.
He might also move up sooner than expected.
Seen quotes from Clinton Woods lately suggesting they're in talks with Kessler.
