Toughest fight@175 for Joe would be the "Road Warrior" or "Bad" Chad

I've seen names like Pavlik(too slow footed although power could be troublesome if eh carried it up), Jones(would get slapped skilly at this stage in his career and anyone who thinks otherwise is insane) and a few other names mentioned(Winky,Tito nonsense to both of them) but the 2 toughest tests would be Johnson and Dawson. Dawson's speed,jab and movement would be hard to beat although I'd favour Joe and Johnson doesn't stop coming! Joe wouldn't have the power to hold him off and although I think Joe would beat himit would be tough and both these 2 fights would be better than any other fight mentioned imo.

I think Johnson and Dawson are too economically small for Joe C. He is at a stage of his career that very few fighters reach; where he only has to fight big rich super fights.

Joe was supposed to fight Johnson already, but nixed it due to "hand injury", then in stead fought Manfredo, lol.

Lance is right, I don't see either of these fights happening. Not everybody's Hopkins, Joe's got probably two more years left? Maybe three? I assume it will be Roy Jones next. He might fight Pavlik but not sure about that.

Joe has stated several times that this is his last year of boxing and he intended on having 2 fights. He's beaten Hopkins so only one fight left and that will be against Roy Jones Junior at the Millennium Stadium in Wales in front of a 75,000 sell-out. Jones is still a big name in the UK with the casual fan.

Pavlik is the best of the lot but Bob Arum seems to want him to have a couple of easier fights over the next year i.e Lockett, Trinidad etc.
