Who is Calzaghe fighting any announcment yet?

Secondsout reckons Edison Miranda is current fav to fight Joe. Also says Manfredo and Kessler have both priced themselves out with Manfredos people asking $1.5 million for the fight.

Yep. Kess priced himself out a few months back...& he'll be smart to keep on doing so until Joe retires.

Kess needs to unify with Beyer.

Beyer was another name being thrown about & from what I understand Joe's people were a bit interested...but Beyer's cut like fwock from this past weekend...so I imagine he's out.

Pavlik also was asked to fight but turned it down...

Smart move.

I think Miranda is better to fight Abraham and stay at middleweight. Although a win over Calzaghe would be bigger, I think it is a much tougher fight, and than you hold belts in a weightclass lacking big money fights.

Miranda needs to use his head & stay focused on someone he might have a shot at competing with...Abraham.

A win over Abraham would put him next to Taylor/Wright or even Sturm for some bigger returns.

This would be a huge step backwards IWO unless Taylor or Wright moved up...Joe has issues with making 168 from what I have read...he'd kill himself with a dig further down.

I don’t get why most of you guys believes more in Gary Shaw and Frank Warren when you talk about Kessler should pricing himself out. Team Palle offered the exact same amount to Lacy for going to Copenhagen as Kessler asked for going to Florida, but still most guys here says that Kessler priced himself out of a fight against Lacy.

Now Frank Warren said some weeks ago that Kessler “priced” himself out of a fight against Calzaghe (Kessler had offered Calzaghe to fight numerous of times) and then again posters here clap their hands and say “Yes, you are right mr. Warren”

Does anyone here actually know how much Kessler asked for the fight? I don’t think so.

There could also be other reasons that both Calzaghe and Lacy did not want to fight Kessler.

Calzaghe has been hyped a lot lately because he beat the hell out of most boxing fans darling, Lacy – but Kessler is a whole other story than Lacy, I you ask me.
