My thoughts exactly= If he fought Pavlik, as most seem to want, who would change weight??,,,and why go back to 168, when Dawson is on the prowl
Pavlik- I'd like to see him stay and rule at Middleweight for a while, its good for boxing if he maintains an undefeated record and cleans out an entire division. Tarver- I don't really see any point in this fight, Calzaghe would win a clear UD. It would be a boring fight as well. Jones- This fight seems to make the most sense from Calzaghe's stand point.. this is the biggest payday of his career most likely and almost a guaranteed victory + another legend on his resume adding to his legacy. Dawson- This guy is considered the young up and coming star of the Light Heavyweight division. To beat a young guy like Dawson whos trying to make a name for himself and retire would be a good move for calzaghe although he would make more with fighting jones. Personally I'd like to see him fight Dawson but most likely he'll end up fighting Jones or Jermain Taylor
Tarver-Dawson winner would be the best fight. But Roy Jones jr. would probably make him a little more money and a little more fame (and redemption in a way- they could've fought years ago). He'll probably take Roy. I don't think Pavlik would be a good one, though. Pavlik is a Middleweight, and Joe JUST moved up. ANd glen Johnson? He needs to get a win under his belt. Otherwise big names will dodge him. Sad, considering his great effort against Dawson.
Roy Jones, it will be great for him to have victories over Jones and Bernard on his resume, also if he fights Pavlik and wins, which is a high probability, there is no doubt that his legacy will be better known to the fans.
you guys actually want to see him fight Roy Jones? Wow that rediculous. Roy is soo past it. Well i gues thats why the HBO guys were laughing that fight off as I would have been.
I think Bernard should screw Calzaghe and sign to fight Jones in a Rematch that should have happened years ago. i bet the money would be about the same. Every other guy other then Tarver would give Calzaghe a good test. Hopkins should take away his easy payday for one of this own. Hopkins TKO 9
I want too see Joe Calzaghe fight Roy Jones next and then fight Pavlik in early 2009:good the build and hype for both fights would be a lot of fun:thumbsup
For some reason, I don't want to see Calzaghe vs Pavlik. And CERTAINLY not Jones vs Calzaghe. :conf Seems I'm out-numbered. My vote goes for Dawson.
