During an interview with BBC Wales , WBO super middleweight champ Joe Calzaghe (43-0, 32 KOs) revealed that his November 3 unification bout with WBA/WBC counterpart Mikkel Kessler (39-0, 29 KOs) will be his last at super middleweight. Calzaghe plans to move up to the light heavyweight limit of 175-pounds in 2008.

"This will be my last fight at super middleweight," Calzaghe said. "Win against Kessler and I'd have all the belts and I'd have beaten the best fighter out there, so what else could I achieve at super middleweight?"

Calzaghe feels that a win over Kessler will make him the best super middleweight of all-time. He will then try to pursue a fight with Bernard Hopkins at light heavyweight. He knows that some fans have the younger Kesser as the favorite to win, but he points out that many experts had him as the underdog when he dominated Jeff Lacy in 2006.

"By beating Kessler, as far as I'm concerned it should recognise me up there as maybe the best super middleweight of all time," Calzaghe added.  "After that it would have to be up to light heavyweight and maybe fight Hopkins. "But believe me the Kessler fight is all I'm thinking about at the moment. This fight is everything."

"I'm 35 but I'm not going to pick a couple of easy fights and retire, that's not my way. I want to be the best in the world. Lacy came along two years ago nearly and people were saying he was the best and look what happened to Jeff Lacy. Now it's Mikkel Kessler, a lot of people saying he's the man but I'm going to prove them wrong and hold all the belts in front of 50,000-60,000 people in my own town Cardiff - that's what dreams are made of. People talk about going to America, going to (Las) Vegas, New York... listen, this is my New York, my Madison Square Garden."
