hey pretty boy, yeah i read this on another boxing site, i dont seem him fighting taylor soon because, taylor is fight spinks and then will have a mandatory against miranda or pavlik, so i sure hope its kessler. I actually like both, And ive seen calzage at his best and ive seen kessler fight twice. I dont seen this fight anything like the lacy fight because i actually think kessler hits harder and punches alot straighter than lacy. My money is on kessler even though i think i like calzage better.

yeah, but i mean calzage hasnt looked great either, they are both top quality fighters and will make for a great fight seeing how neither cares about defense too much. I have a feeling we havent seen the best of either guy yet. At least us americans who havent seen much of them. I for one have seen most of both men fight and i was really impressed with calzage up to the lacy fight, and im not starting to be more and more impressed with the progression of kessler. It'll be good.

hahah good point eric, its not up to taylor who he fights and its not up to calzage who he fights. its up to their promoter. From what i have heard, taylor wants the fight more than calzage does. I dont think taylor is that overrated at all. He has earned his titles and his status. You cant say he is overrated without saying winky and bhop are overrated because he stood their toe to toe with both guys and for the most part got the best of them. I think calzage vs kessler or calzage vs taylor will all be close and very great fights. All 3 like to throw alot of punches and all hit fairly hard, with the edge going to kessler and the weakest goign to calzage.

yes, taylor is a big middleweight but his body has alot more room for muscle and to fill out. He may not want to move up in weight but he is working on cleaning out the whole middleweight division, I see him moving up to lightheavyweight by the end of his career. I would love to see him fight, dawson, tarver and some of those guys now. Im just as anxious as you guys for taylor to fight another big opponent but it takes time to get those fights.

i said working, as in in the progress, it took roy jones 5 years to clean out the lightheavyweight division and even though he fought nobodies, no one stepped up to the plate, the same thing with taylor. I despize you calling a real pro fightera bum , becasue in reality, he would make you look like a girl in the ring.

im saying roy fought nobodies because he didnt have a choice, although rjj is probley my favorite fighter of all time. Jones did fight fairly good oppossition early in his career, like taylor, then jones destroyed everone in the the 175 pound division, then decided to move to heavyweight and after that he didn thave anything else to prove and lost his drive and beat tarver and then lost 2 more times after that. YOur right, a bum and a nobody are the sam,e but i wasnt making a reference to it being jones jr's fault or taylor's fault.

And i agree, most of them guys would kill me. Ive only been fighting for 2 years and I fight at 154 and 160. I dont expect to compete with 175 guys who walk around at 190. Even though they werent to great in boxing, most of them only had 3-4 losses and jones fought all of his mandatory's and won with ease. He quoted perfectly in his songs, " you guys got the nerve to say i aint fight nobody, i just make them look like nobody" . ALot of those nobodies are champs now. ala clinton woods, glen johnson was for awhile, virgil hill, and the list goes on. but your right, they would beat me in the ring as well.
