    He should fight Froch as a 'tune up' and then face the winner of Dawson/Tarver.

    Either Johnson or Froch. Theres unfinished business with Hopkins but with the **** Hopkins pulled in their first fight no way in hell he deserves or will be getting a rematch.

    Dawsons just the latest in a long line of Americas "new hope". Beating him would do little for Calzaghe's legacy. Kessler would destroy Dawson, and Johnson has already beaten him.

    Johnson is a guy who deserves a shot at Joe, but he would have next to no chance of winning. Johnsons pretty much on the level of Clinton Woods - at least two levels below Calzaghe.

    Froch hasnt really earned it, and would be an easy night for Calzaghe. But it would be a good farewell fight for Joe to take in Britain. Frochs spent most of his career calling out and dissing Calzaghe. Shutting him up in front of 60,000 British fans would be a great way to end his career.

    He should fight Dawson IMO. I reckon if it was announced that Calzaghe were to fight the winnr of Dawson-Tarver, it would make the first fight much bigger, and raise the profile of Dawson. This would then make a Calzaghe-Dawson fight huge

    Chad Dawson - if that does not staple a critics motormouth - then
    sweet-f-a will.

    He should fight Dawson, and then retire! i think a win over Dawson would shut up the ones who dislike him once for all.. and again maybe not! then people would just start to say he have to take a rematch against Hopkins or Kessler! it will never end before he lose his 0...

    Being from Caerphilly, Joe is my favourite boxer, I would like to see him retire undefeated, he has nothing to prove. As Joe knows, Denys Cronin from Abertridwr would kick seven shades of **** out him without breaking sweat. Not withstanding this Joe is a class act in all respects, he will know when it's time to throw the towel in. He is welsh, fit, strong, good looking and intelligent - in fact, he's a bit like me actually.

    Definitely a Hopkins rematch in March. There's unfinished business there. If he wins he can face the winner of Dawson/Tarver later in the year. If he's not interested in that then he should retire.

    Dawson - I thought Johnson beat him but it would be great if Joe schooled another young un. He doesn't have to take the fight though. A fight with Pavlik is defo not on the cards after he was dismantled by BHOP.

    I think Calzaghe deserves another shot at the legendary Bernard Hopkins.
