    Only Dawson left for Joe if he gets by RJJ, which is no lock.

    joe's said some stupid ****ing things recently and is far from the sharpest tool in the box but that was pretty tongue in cheek.

    He's right, the only big name he could fight is Hopkins in a rematch and that fight is just a slow death for both in terms of style, definitely not a "new" type of fight that would motivate him.

    He's right though isn't he?

    Anyway, Bernard Hopkins had two cracks at Jermain Taylor and fought just as cautiously in the second fight as he did in the first so it's not as if he's gonna start bolo-punching and doing the Ali shuffle against Calzaghe second time round.

    Anyone would think Calzaghe's saying this stuff just to infuriate some eastsideboxing posters.

    You act as if that's a prerequisite for beating Joe in a rematch, which is hardly the case.

    you never know with calzaghe maybe he is doing the whole retire thing just to come out for on big last fight in wales to cap it all off, what we have got to remember is that calzaghe is promoting himself now.

    Abraham? Guys a middleweight, and his best win is against Edison Miranda...
