First off nobody can take what Frank Warren says seriously about Kessler refusing the fight in July. The guy's got a bad reputation for only making fights that he wants to make more money from. Calzaghe would fight anybody but his only flaw is that he didn't have motivation to leave Warren like Hatton did.
Calzaghe Vs Kessler would be an exciting fight, Kessler packs a good punch but I've watched his fights and he'd get blitzed by Calzaghe combinations and would likely struggle to get any worthwhile punch off. A lot of people have been saying he's fast but to me he's just a supped up Mario Veit and will be taylor made for a late round stoppage.
Jermain Taylor would be my pick of the lot, he's the man who's beat the man and that's how you get the real recognition in this game.
I agree with a previous comment about Froch probably getting into Calzaghe's head and cause him problems but Calzaghe's ring generalship, savvy, speed, chin and more noticebly stamina far outweighs Froch's.
It's an exciting time for me as a Calzaghe fan but I was near breaking point on giving up on him when they announced Bika and Manfredo Jnr. If he fights anyone less than Froch next time around I will be incredibly dissapointed.
