Also, Joe doesn't spar so much because of his hands. But he is bound to do a bit of sparring. Whom will Joe spar and why?

Chad Dawson is kind of busy and wouldn't come cheap.
Basically look for some quick handed lefties.

Let us bear in mind that Dawson wouldn't spar a potential future opponent.. anyway...would he be sparring as early as a week or two after his fight with Diaconu?
I think Kessler would make a big mistake sparring with someone as heavy or heavier than himself. If I was him, I'd spar with a tall FAST partner at 160 or even slightly less...who has a good inside game. I would let him get inside and see how I cope, defensively...
I would continue to train with Bika, especially where grapling and holding is concerned - because Joe WILL use those tactics if he has to, and I am not convinced that Kessler is very good at that.
In attack, now there's the problem...
...any suggestions?

This guy might be appropiate, given Calzaghe's style.

Sparring with God may not help him for what is coming on November 3rd!!!

hmmm...:think...obviously, since JC is the best, he'll not be able to QUITE prepare for that...but he should still do his best...so whom?

f20XTBvJ-uYWasn't the question whom Joe would spar? I know Kessler is fast, but still...
Then again Decebal seem very confused as up late. His titles says one thing, and his first post another. Maybe he is deliberately trying to confuse us.

I think he was asking for both.
So both he has got.

On first impressions, this seems an excellent choice! The height and weight (speed) check out with brio!

The perfect sparring for Kessler would be Stan Ward

Joe really has an unique style.
May be sam soliman would be good. He has good endurance, good stamina, always in great shape and he throws a lot of punches.

He should just shadow box because that is what he will be hitting November 3rd

That will be Calzaghe on November 3rd but without the kicking.
Calzaghe Is probably using a sandman to practice for Kessler's defence.

When Kessler uses his only defence which Is covering up, Joe's lighting slap cut right through Mikkel.
