    fought teh hardest fighter to fight in boxing and fought to a competitive draw.
    HAs NEVER been dominated or made look like his age.
    not to discredit him but Bernard Hopkins unified the titles. He did it by KO'ing Mercado for the IBF, the WBC from Holmes, the WBA from Trinidad, and the WBO from De La Hoya.

      After Lacy he said he was going to make some big fights.
      Instead, he fought Bika and is fighting Manfredo and seemingly ducking Kessler, unless there are stipulations i am unaware of.
      He is doing the opposite of facing good opposition.
      manfredo could be a tune up fight before kessler. manfredo is tough, but i think kessler would **** him up.
      after seeing kessler destroy beyer, i think he deserves some credit. that punch was awesome to watch, i could almost feel beyer's pain

        Beyer is useless and Kessler is average.

        Manfredo fight is to increase Calzaghe's clamour Stateside and set up the Taylor fight in the summer.


        Carl Froch will be fighting Mikkel Kessler next summer and says he'll knock him clean out, and means it too.

          That's impressive
          probably because the italian in him and not the british part

          Kessler is no Jeff Lacy he is techincal very good too. I dont think Fronch could KO him it will be the opposite.

          The only fight that make sense for both Kessler and Calzaghe is with each other right now

            in other words, u're saying " if kessler wasn't a boxer he'd be a bouncer in the west end, with 3 kids from 3 different women "

            do u think calzone will beat taylor?
