    Come on Joe son.

    ITs unfinished business with Bernard.

    This time bring the show back to Wales.

    Forget bringing Roy over here for a ill deserved rematch.

    Jones was beaten clearly.

    But Hopkins is the one Calzaghe still has something to prove with.

    Hopkins over here for a fight would bring alot of publicity to Britain Boxing too.

    It be good to see that at the Millenium Stadium - go up and watch it hopefully

    No it's not, Joe beat Hopkins fair and square, rematch not required.

    Just because Hopkins easily beat Pavlik, that's no reason to suggest that he something else to offer Joe other than what we already saw.

    I'd love to see a rematch. I thought Hopkins nicked the first fight so Calzaghe definitely has something to prove and it's probably the biggest fight out there for him. If Hopkins wins they could have a rubber match in the states and then both call it a day.

    Calzaghe wont rematch Hopkins - he had the shock of his life when he found out it wasn't a shot old man in there. He wont give him another chance.

    Apparently Hagler still keeps in reasonable shape so no chance of that happening. Maybe Calzaghe promotions can build up Strum, Ottke or Beyer as p4p ATG's and get one of them ass wipes to cardif.

    Hopkins would never get a decision in Wales with those tactics. No chance.

    He had his chance, with everything in his favour, and he didn't do enough to win the fight.

    If he's going to do a rematch, it should be Kessler. At least it was entertaining.

    So Joe's got to beat people twice to get any respect?

    It never ends does it?

    I suppose if Jones goes on to beat somebody decent then there will no doubt be cries of "rematch!", along with an excuse of something like "Jones wasn't well when he fought Joe"

    Some people won't be happy unless Joe just keeps on fighting until he gets beat.

    Anyone see Hopkins at ringside playing pantomime villain for the crowd when the camera was on him? He's a ***** sometimes but it's hard not to like the guy.

    no..its simpler than that...
    joe will want his last fight in front of his own home crowd..
    joe will want it to be a huge fight money wise..
    that fight, the one that generates most money is hopkins rematch.

    People want to see a Hopkins v Calzaghe rematch?

    Did they not endure the first one?

    Would go pretty much the same way, but with a much greater chance of Hopkins being disqualified.
