CC. To me, this is the most persuasive reason to pick Joe. I was really on the fence about this at first--Johnson is very busy, and will definitely give Joe A LOT more trouble than Lacy did (not that that's saying much, on its own), but Miles, you've convinced me that it has to be Joe UD. I don't see him stopping Johnson though, and I still think there's a 20% chance that Johnson wins (if so, likely by KO). Should be a great fight to watch in any case. I don't love Calzaghe, but he definitely deserves props for taking this fight instead of fighting some schmuck at SMW, as it appeared he might do. The outcome of this fight proves more about Joe than the outcome of the Lacy fight too, IMO.
