Joe's two biggest fights are Hopkins or Jones in rematches. If he does fight again it'll be one of them, guys like Johnson have no chance at all.

Good for him.Certainly deserves to be right at the top of the mix imo.Calzaghe vs. Dawson would be my preference but can easily see a Hopkins rematch,Johnson vs. Calzaghe would really be a very busy fight,action packed I think but with Calzaghe looking to call it a day....it really would not benifit him a great deal.
The only thing I can think this one really has going for it is Johnson would make the best matchu-up excitement wise IMO, and Calzaghe might want to go out with a real show for the fans, rather than another grapple-fest with Hopkins, and two lefties are notorious for not providing rip-roaring bouts.
I think you nailed it on the excitment factor...can you picture Joe shaking his hips and mocking A buzzsaw like Johnson.Would make for solid action.And as much as I think Hopkins might be able to change up in a rematch with Joe...Im not yearning to see that again.The least on my want list honestly.Dawson is riding some very good momentum through the year,I can see a nice fight style wise with Joe but Dawson IMO is taking a huge step sideways, rather than forward in career with a pointless rematch against Tarver...for the life of me,that one makes zero sence.Many options out there,no doubt.
I would like to see GJ Vs Joe....I think it would be a good bout...I see JC winning but certainly no walk over...Certainly no easy time like what he had with RJJ....Calzaghe would have a fight on his hands for sure....
Dawson by rights deserves the shot but I actually think GL gives us more for the buck in this one.....
3 years ago I would have really liked to see this one...Glen has slipped a bit since then

johnson can keep wishing but joe not gonna tangle with him
If he has a rematch with RJJ I will take any respect whatsoever that I had for Joe and throw it in the bin, because quite frankly ALL the questions about who still had it were answered in that one fight, and no way he should consider that. Hopkins....maybe. Dawson and Johnson. Froch and Kessler maybe. If he comes back, it's a very short list he should be considering.
Glen johnson is a good fighter lets not forget that he has power but your right joe would kick butt, i dont think any re-match would be on his hit list, he's beaten them he's nothing left to prove, a match up with dawson would be good he wooped taver that was good enough for me lol (taver was trying to hard to be MASON DIXON, same as tommy morrison tried to play his TOMMY GUNN charector) at the end of the day joe will fight when joe wants to fight, i think he would like to beat the marchiano record of 49-0 but who knows. i would love to see him retire undisputed light heavyweight champ, we all would but the fact is "HE BEAT THE BEST"!!thats all he wanted to do.
