Retired former champion Joe Clazaghe is looking ahead to his future in the sport. He, along with his father Enzo Calzaghe, are laying down the bricks for their promotional company, Calzaghe promotions. According to Calzaghe, WBA super middleweight champion Mikkel Kessler is the best fighter at the weight and he would love nothing more than to promote Kessler. [details]

Nice work Joe...not playing into Froch's baiting games. And I agree, if 80% Taylor shows up next week Taylor's got it. -
Fair comments on the Froch Vs Taylor fight.
personally I think Taylor only has attitude problems when he is given problems and I doubt Froch has anything to cause Taylor any problems.Comment

Joe sounded like a good guy here. That would be something, Joe being Kesslers promoter.

Kessler could do a lot worse than signing for Calzaghe. His current promotional team is a farce.Comment

thats a fair assessment of taylor and froch, not going to be to frochs likeing but fair nonetheless.
kessler is the one opponent who i think joe genuinely does respect and puts him on equal footing as himself in terms of talent and ability.
imo if froch wants to step out of the shadow of calzaghe and be seen as a world class operator, if he wants to be mentioned in the same breath as other great british SMW champion's like benn, eubank, collins, and calzaghe then he needs to defeat mikkel.
as for joe promoting mikkel, it might work, fighters are attracted to other fighters who know what its like to be in the ring, know the game of boxing and how it works.
OTOH why wouldn't mikkel want to set up his own promotional company like winky and RJJ have done while fighting, iv heard one of his friends was thinking of acting as manager.Comment
