Is Joe Calzaghe ducking Mikkel kessler?

[adietheforestfa]

No he is not ducking Kessler.

Frank the Wank might be though, he doesnt do risky fights

IMO

A better poll might be - "Does anyone CARE?"

Joe"stay at home" Calzaghe
better stick to fighting wanna be's off the contender , because
fighting Kessler is a bad bad Idea or better,let the coward retire

Twice as many people answered 'No' as 'Yes'.

The reason for this is most likely because they consider Taylor to be a more credible and proven opponent who is a bigger profile name in the world of boxing. If he fights Taylor, then its not so as to duck Kessler, its because Taylor is a bigger fight. Get this in to your tiny head.

Calzaghe should fight Mikkel "stay at home" Kessler.

But only if the Taylor, Wright and Hopkins fights don't happen.

Only a fool would think Calzaghe is ducking a Top 50 P4P (at best) Kessler by fighting a top 5/10 one in Taylor.

taylor is the bigger and better fight. kessler is just ordinary and is dull to watch imo. calzaghe-taylor is a much more interesting fight.

Come now. Kessler is probably on the brink of making his way into the top 20 P4P fighters, if not already there. This still doesnt overcome the fact that Taylor, Wright and Hopkins are all much higher up the list than him.

I think he's taking advantage of a very very average division, with one exception. As there's little difference between the fighters rated 21 - 50 P4P I doubt we're disagreeing that much.

The same thing was said about Lacy (the ducking part). Joe is just looking for a money fight, he deserves it after all this time. Why does he keep having to prove himself against these up and comers?

Kessler would've beaten Gerald McClellan.
