    No-one imo.

    Hopkins would probably have the better chance, but he's tried before and narrowly failed.

    Calzaghe would destroy pavlik, Froch and Dawson imo.

    Chad Dawson, Glen Johnson, Tavoris Cloud, Kelly Pavlik

    People will hate on me for saying it but Jermain Taylor...say what you will about him, he's a fighter and will give it all he has. He fought a much better fight vs Pavlik at the 166 catch weight and I figure he can add weight without hurting his ability unlike Pavlik. Taylor was ready to move up before he fought Kelly the first time IMO.

    Cloud and Dawson are young but Dawson is a good boxer and Cloud has huge power and since Joe has been down in the first round in his last two fights, I figure a guy with solid power at 175 would have a shot vs him.

    Johnson is an old guy but he's a war horse, he can take punishment and keep pounding away.

    After Pavlik's performance against Hopkins I wouldn't put him in with ANYONE at 168 but if he is able to train up to that weight properly then I figure he'd give Joe all he could handle

    No hate from me. If Taylor blows away Lacey, he is right back in the mix. I would not count him out by a long shot.
