    Truthfully though I can see only Hopkins, Johnson or Dawson as legitimate big fights for Joe, Froch isn't even rated in the top 5 at SMW, so why should a guy who fights at LHW come down. Bums will be on seats regardless of who Joe fights so he should least go out with a bang, Dawson being my favourite.

    would love2 see hopkins or dawson but froch would be the biggest money maker even tho i think hes less risk then the other 2. like ya say calzaghes last fight will fill out anywhere vs anyone even c zeneloff . me personally would love 2 see joe vs hopkins 2 or c dawson. dont think it will happen tho. got 2 be froch, the british people would go mad 4 it

    Joe should fight a easy gimme fight but with a British touch. Clinton Woods.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Chad Dawson, just to keep the fight real.

    Too many of those other names are just silly.

    Im thinking Dawson himself may be a little over rated, he has beaten some good names, he beat Tarver and Adamek well but Adamek moved up to cruiser and did a whole lot better, could have been the weight?

    As for Tarver, hes just a bag of shit really and I can see him doing much better in a rematch.

    Then you have Johnson who Clinton Woods beat and I dont think Calzaghe would have had as much trouble with Johnson as Dawson did

    A Calzaghe v Dawson fight could be another Hopkins v Pavlik fight, where the younger fighter is just flumuxed by the style in front of him and cannot get anything off, like Kessler couldnt.

    I watched Calzaghe v Kessler on youtube last night and Manny Steward is commentating for HBO, he calls Joe a "fantastic fighting machine" he stands and applauds both boxers and says that Kessler is a very good fighter in his own right and both should be in the top ten fighters in the world, just that Joe is that good.

    He also commented on Joes ability to up his pace and change his style, he was gushing about Joe and to hear a highly regarded American trainer say that kind of praise for someone who for a long time got no credit at all was very telling on Joes skill.

    Now Joe is where he is, any name is overrated. He's at the level where he is only entitled to fall. Any big win is most likely due to a fault in the opponent.

    Not that Im fully sold on that jazz...

    I think he's hoping Winky beats Williams. My gut feeling is it'll be Winky or Taylor.
