Its not like the Calzaghe five was 5 years ago! It was 2007! He hasnt been as busy as he wouldve liked but he regained the WBA belt in his comeback fight, dispatching an undefeated fighter in good style and had a standard defence against Haussler, I dont think that is too much to be ashamed of, it isnt like there is a line of American super middles willing to take him on...
I dont think anyone can beat Calzaghe when they fight him first time! i guess thats why Joe (and his father) dont like rematches. So Kessler is maybe the only one, who can beat Joe right now. And i think Joe and Enzo knows that! A rematch with Kessler will NEVER happend!
Would there really be any point?? Who knows what the outcome would be? JC has definitely declined but who knows if Kessler has improved or even has the capability to adapt and overcome like Calzaghe does? I firmly believe that Kessler's only advantage is a physical one......which is all he had for the first fight. His boxing brain is nowhere near that possessed by the likes of JC, BH, etc. Would he be finished if JC beat him again? That's a big risk for MK.
If you don't spare the last 14 days up to a superfight what happens to your condition and sharpness in the ring??? Calzaghe was great after the first half of the fight and that´s the only time I've seen Kessler looking for air... in the 12 round he got it back... Kessler was not at his best in that fight but showed that he was no quitter Remember it was by far the biggest payday of his life and would he ever get a fight with Calzaghe again!?
