    I don't get people. Kessler is the best? Calzaghe's opposition has been better. Not great, but better. That alone makes him the best by default until Kessler proves himself (which he wont if he fights Calzaghe).

      I'll go Kessler first then Calzaghe followed by Mundine even though hes not on the list or even one of my favourite boxers but there's no denying hes boxing skills.

          Joe is the man at super middle for years now. Along comes kessler and wants to be the man. If and when they fight and Kessler beats Joe, i will happily acknowledge kessler as the man.

              Whoever HASN'T voted Joe needs eye surgery.

              Kessler's a serious contender at 168 but in no way is he ahead of Calzaghe until he's beaten him.

              To be the man you have to beat the man, Kessler took the easy option in Beyer, calls out Calzaghe but there's no substance behind it at all.

                oh and in Calzaghe's fight with reid, he damaged his hand, it's not like Reid's better than him.

                  You must be joking! Froch has still got some way to go before he could even be considered! Calzaghe is the best at Super-Middle. As i've stated before, i think Froch would be a tougher opponent than Manfredo, but he isn't the best Super-Middle at the moment.

                    So by that reconning, all that Calzaghe needs to do to remain the best/the man at SMW, is NOT to take the fight with Kessler - no matter what.

                    Yeah - it's sure gonna be easy (not being british) to respect Calzaghe based on that.
