    Im a Joe Calzaghe fan but Kesslers efforts in the ring & his humility after the fight have made me a big fan.........A great fighter & a true gent.
    I really think he can dominate SMW for the next few yrs & I'll certainly be following his progress.

    Calzaghe by no means "dominated" Kessler, i think it was still a very close fight, I for one would like to see a rematch, much more than any Hopkins or Woods fight.

    I am a Calzaghe fan and Kessler is the ony fighter who really forced Joe to dig deep. I predict that Kessler will be considered ATG material when he finishes his career.

    Kessler will be back, but at the moment he needs new inspiration, promotor.

    I have some respect for Kessler. To go to Cardiff to put his two belts on the line against Calzaghe showed more balls than anyone else has been capable of in the last 10 years.

    From the signs i'm seeing from him, his heart doesnt seem to be in it as much as before the Joe fight. He carries that into the ring, he won't go anywhere.
    Has the ability to rule supreme the 168's though, lets hope he wants to.

    Pretty hot division that 168 lb. class.We have yet to see the best of Kessler, and Butte proved himself a player with the impressive win over Bika, who will be back making lots of noise as well.Its nice to look forward to top fighters looking to establish themselves by beating the other top guys.There is way too much attention stolen by semi retired guys like DLH, cherry pickers like Hopkins, and dudes like RJJ who is a combination of both.

    I have the same feeling. He recently said, that he only expects to fight 5-6 more times before he retires. He shouldn't be thinking about that now, only to get the biggest possible fight.

    He should sign with a American promoter like Top Rank or something. Base himself over there and get his comeback fight against someone like Hanshaw or Green.

    Agreed.
    How much will it take to buy him out?
    Is there any other examples of boxers being nought out of contracts?
