    Kessler tried it, Hopkins tried it, Jones tried it, Joe can outwork them all.

    Kessler did, but Hopkins and Jones didn't for more than spurts. Whether Calzaghe's offence prevented them or what I don't know

    He should try to beat dawson first to get that cherry on top. If he doesn't beat dawson, so what, the 0 means nothing unless you crush all doubt about your record. Calzaghe beat two old past their prime fighters in a row. If he doesn't get a young hungry near prime lion on his resume now, he will forever hear people discredit him for fighting grampas.

    No one in the game even gives Joe a fight. But, I think he should fight Hopkins again just to cement his legacy.

    Say Joe fights Dawson and beats him and (I dont think this has any chance of happening but for the purposes of my point ill say it) Froch beats Kessler, attention will turn to froch.

    It doesnt matter because Joe doesnt have a buff body that some of the gay boys on here can drool over like they did Lacy before his fight with Joe or Kesslers body and tattoo, or throw a big eye catching hay maker, Joe will never get recognition by some because he doesnt look or fight like they would want.

    Joe can beat anyone and hurts some "fans" who actually cry after their fighter gets beat

    There will always be another hope that can maybe give Joe a fight but until someone like that comes along Joe should retire because there are no big superstar threats out there, even Dawson for all his qualitys couldnt be made a favourite over Joe, so it wouldnt be very marketable.

    Pavlik was seen as a wreaking machine who had a chance with his power, Dawson doesnt have that draw.
