Assuming Calzaghe beats Manfredo, who else is there for him to fight?
-Taylor is fighting in May and he will have to face the winner of Pavlik-Miranda after that.
-Winky and Hopkins are fighting each other in July. If Calzaghe chooses to hold out for one of them, that fight may not happen until the end of the year leaving plenty of time for an interim fight. Besides, it's not guaranteed that the winner will choose to fight Joe.
-HBO will push for Calzaghe and Kessler to unify. The way they are hyping Kessler now and the way even American fans are pushing for the fight, there will be a lot of pressure for Calzaghe to take the fight.
-Fighting anyone else would be viewed as a flat out duck of Kessler. There just isn't any other credible fight out there and he's had nothing but easy fights since Lacy.
I'm really starting to think Calzaghe will be forced to fight Kessler this summer...
