    1. Calzaghe is 37 in March...

    2. Calzaghe WILL NOT fight Carl Froch...

    Dawson hasn't beat Hopkins or Calzaghe so he can't be THE champ.......the undisputed champ would be Chad/Joe if they fought but Calzaghe is close to becoming a shot fighter

    I think Calzaghe - Taylor will soon be on the cards...

    Froch :patsch

    This guy could not share a ring with the Byron Mitchell or even Charles Brewer that Joe beat.

    No offence, but Froch is not a good fighter.

    Froch fight definitely won't happen. If Joe does return it would only be to fight Dawson.

    Considering his display last november and the kind of money he is making each fight these days, I wouldn't be surprised if Calzague fights two more times in 2009 before retiring for good.

    Anyway, I think Calzague would only be interested in Froch if he beats Taylor.

    I would not be opposed to this fight, as it would be attractive to the British public for obvious reasons but I'd prefer bouts against Dawson or else Taylor which would add substanitally to Joe's legacy.

    He's 37 and I've watched Calzaghe fight since 95 including going to 4 of his fights live

    The decline in his technique, chin and handspeed are there to see and the signs have been there since post Manfredo

    The RJJ fight flattered him and he isn't the same fighter he was around the time he was beating up Woodhall at the turn of the century

    What you know about Calzaghe I could write on my fingernail so shut the hell up with your inane swearing and lack of knowledge/spelling

    He's a veteran who looked a little shop worn against Hopkins and to think he might fight the likes of Froch or Dawson spells trouble for him

    His next fight will be against either Dawson or Johnson (If he fights again). He will not fight Froch, the only way that will happen is if Froch fights and beats Kessler and thats not going to happen.

    i think he should fight dawson,makes no sense fighting froch as calzaghe will not be able to make 168 smw.
    and froch would be a walk through at 175 lhw for calzaghe.

    He shouldnt waste his time on Froch.

    He should fight dawson having retired clearing out two divisions.
