    Yes. I heard he kept avoiding the big challenges.

    Kessler will outpoint him if this fight is made.

      We'll see, Jones should fight Calzaghe even if he gets a little less money.

        Kessler by KO. If I had points I would bet all of them on it! Roy wouldnt be able to handle the power or the activity level of Kessler. He would go into a shell and get battered.

            can't see RJJ winning and i think he knows it too. RJJ might have a chance of throwing clever ppunches and testing kesslers body every now and again, kessler is a bit robotic in his movement and boxers who throw punches from angles might do well aginst him.

            but even i roy manages to let his hands go he knows that kessler is not friad to fire back, kessler has a pretty good chin and like joe isnt afraid to throw punches when hes getting hit.

            agree with one of the posters before - kessler just doesn't bring enough money to the table for RJJ to take another loss.

              Roy Jones was in negotiations to go to Germany and fight Markus Beyer, so it's not that unlikely that he'll take on Kessler.

                  Thats right. I don't know what stalled those negotiations. Maybe RJJ priced himself out.

                    Mundine? He is kinda underrated here on NSB. You could make an argument of Kessler's best win between eíther one of those:
                    Manny Siaca, WBA champ, KO8
                    Mundine, mandatory and current WBA champ UD12 in Oz.
                    Eric Lucas, former WBC champ, KO10
                    Markus Beyer, WBC champ, KO3
                    Librado Andrade, mandatory, UD 12

                    Take a pick.

                      Kessler is scary.
                      RJJ lacks stamina against Trinidad and Hanshaw.

                      He only beat Hanshaw by 2 points.

                      Kessler wins this easy in a lob sided fight. TKO within 4.

                      Im sorry but im not mistaken about RJJ. I know a fighter over the hill when i see one.
