To me he can defend the Lightheavy crown against Roy Jones in Nov of 08 and then drop down to 168 and Defend against Miranda in June of 09..

I think since Calzaghe is a legend and has earned this status as well as being long in tooth he would end up only doing this for a year anyway and its not like there is a young Kessleresque guy at 175 that deserves a shot tomorrow, so I am pleased with the current status, seems completely fair, any fighter who cares to complain should try to measure there career against Joes and 99.9% of them wouldnt measure up..
I get where you are coming from, but I still think a fighter should fight in his division at least every 12 months. Otherwise it hardly fits as 'his division' any more. In your proposed schedule Calzaghe will go almost 20 months without fights at 168 - that seems a bit much for my taste.
