      Who knows how long Kessler would need. It seems they're also setting up unrealistic demands as well.
      Since you don't know what Warren offered, and you only have Warren's words on what Kessler's camp replied, you really don't know what Kessler wants at all. What you do know, is that Warren offered them a fight on a date he knew would be too soon for Kessler, so A. Kessler would wisely refuse (the date, not the fight), or B. Calzaghe would have every advantage they could think of.

      Kessler already said he'd want to rest untill the fall for his next fight. Then Warren comes out and offers him a fight in July. Who doesn't want the fight, but wants to make it appear that the other guy doesn't want it? Warren.

        as for joe just fighting and kessler just fighting a little while ago, kessler was in a fight, joe was in the ring with a punching bag that didn't throw back, joe trained for X-amount of time and basically didn't have a fight. kessler trained for X-amount of time and fought a hard 12 rounds against a GAME opponent and won without the help of the ref.

        it's obvious that frank "the douche" warren and joe calzaghe are trying to pit kessler into a making hasty decision about this fight and want to try and catch him as off guard as possible.

        joe going almost back to back in fights like he ought to, that seems a bit uncharacteristic, because it is, it's just a ploy by "the douche" and calzaghe and an attempt to put kessler in an awkward position and give him less time to prepare.

        why would calzaghe and warren want kessler to fight so soon and be under prepared? because it give calzaghe an advantage. why would they want kessler to be properly prepared? that takes away some of the advantage for joe. and why would kessler go into the biggest fight in his career unprepared? that's a dumb career move and thats where warren and calzaghe want kessler to be, under prepared and unconfident about his preparation.


        anyone thinking that kessler is running from calzaghe and doesn't want to fight calzaghe is delusional, and is obviously under the spell of "the douche" warren. so basically you sheep have been brained washed to think whatever warren says is true and fact, i feel sorry for those who can't think for themselves and can't see through the lies, you guys must have a rough life following..............................
        Kessler fought 12 hard rounds? What fight were you watching? That Mexican cab driver Kessler fought was hit 400 times without swellin, Blood, Knockdown????? Kessler was bleedin. What if Cal and Kess do fight? Calzaghe will win easily, and idiots like you will say AHHHHH Kessler wasnt ready yet, Joe should have been fighting Hopkins or Taylor.

          Warren says no to Kessler

          In an interview this morning, Warren took back the words from yesterday stating that Kessler promotor Mogens Palle did not reject the offer.

          "Palle faxed me last night and accepted the offer that I gave him and Kessler to fight Joe in Wales for 400 bags of crisps and a lucrative TV exclusive deal for the Solomon islands and Tibet - unfortuneately I have already signed a deal with Henry Porras' folks for Joe to fight Henry in a RECORD BREAKING 21st title defence. Tickets for the Millenium Stadium will go on sale tomorrow efter tea, starting at 900 quid. This fight will be the massivest of massives!"

          "Palle priced himself out of the previous deal by not reacting in the 14 min window I gave him. He is obviously scared of Joe", said Warren, 59, this morning".

          Source: Same as Warren's offer in the first place

            Yep, Warren is indeed full of ****

              Friday night fight on Sky is usually far better than any of Warrens bills.
              I think they mostly come from Moloney or Hennessy Promotions who are far better IMO than Frank warren

                Or alternatively, Kessler has been calling out Calzaghe for months. Now a date is offered and they backtrack. I don't often hear the argument that the champion should be the one having to accomodate the challenger's every whim.

                I'd rather see Taylor-Calzaghe anyway. Much better for legacy.

At which point Joe went on his OH YOU GUYS SAID LACY WAS GOING to BEAT ME. he sounded like a baby, calling Kessler overhyped and that he would beat him easy.

                  Joe can run, but can he continue to hide
                  Warren was upset about that..

                  I think he called Merchant a "prick" - I'm not a lip reader but that's how it looked..

What if Cal and Kess do fight? Calzaghe will win easily, and idiots like you will say AHHHHH Kessler wasnt ready yet, Joe should have been fighting Hopkins or Taylor.

                      lets start with andrade vs manfredo, who put up the better fight? who kept on fighting? who took huge shots and kept coming forward for twelve rounds? andrade, certainly not manfredo. who made his opponent work for his win, andrade. just because he was out gunned doesn't make him a slouch, plus he is a big puncher. so when you size up the competition andrade was a way tougher fight than manfredo, obviously.

                      and for saying that kessler isnt ready yet, kessler is far more ready to fight calzaghe than taylor. like i said and i'll say it yet again, taylor isnt ready and taylor is still hype. taylor doesn't have the experience to deal with calzaghe and doesn't have the ring generalship to deal with calzaghe's fight game. plain and simple.

                      kessler is ready and can make a good fight, maybe even beat calzaghe, hopkins is ready and can beat calzaghe. taylor would be exposed like lacy, and calzaghe knows that and that is why frank warren and calzaghe are trying to make the fight with taylor before fighting anyone else. taylor has been nothing but sub par. a lackluster draw against wright and a dominant performance against a smaller taylor made for his style fight with ouma, and he couldn't even come close to knocking him out. taylors wins over hopkins were gifts, basically it was HBO's money machine against an old pain in their ass, of course they're going to give to taylor.


                      look at taylors next opponent spinks, a smaller guy coming up from welterweight to middle who was knocked out by zab judah, although spinks is slick he can be KO'd by a guy that is smaller than him (judah), so it's obvious that they're trying to get taylor a KO before he fights anyone else, but if taylor was to fight calzaghe he is going to look like an inexperienced amatuer. taylor has limited footwork and hasn't seen anyone with the punch output and the hand speed of calzaghe and wouldn't know how to stop the flury.

                      kessler has good movement and know's how to tie up to control the pace of a fight and stop flurys, hopkins too knows how to stop flurys and has got impeccable timing, and everyone knows timing is the key to beating speed. not to mention kessler has fair timing too.

                      hopkins and kessler are far more ready for calzaghe than taylor and that is the main reason team calzaghe is trying to fight taylor instead of kessler and hopkins...................

                      just setting the record straight..........................
