    I don't see it. I don't see any reason why Tarver should be a fight Calzaghe should pursue. I don't see it being particularly meaningful--Tarver has no titles, although if it got made he would find a way to get that IBO strap he always seems to have--and I don't see anything in Tarver's style that would make it a particularly exciting fight; If Hopkins and Dawson could back Tarver up, I don;t see Joe having any sort of difficulty. I'm actually a fan of Tarver, I like his style and the way he promostes his fights, but I just don't see this as being any benefit to anyone except Tarver, who gets a fat payday and a chance to land another lucky punch.

    nomatter who joe calzaghe faces,there will allways be a new opponent waiting.He will allways have fans and critics,even haters.
    IF he fought Dawson and Tarver,and won that wouldnt change that fact.
    Joe Calzaghe should IMO retire now,undefeated.With a great record AND nothing left to prove...the man is 37,have had a lot of handinjuries and
    should call it a day.

    Good point..I hate 'the rematch clause'. However I think Tarver would gladly step aside if the $$ was right!

    Maybe Hagler is being sarcastic because those are the kinds of fighters that Calzaghe is going for now. A Tarver fight makes no sense right now. Johnson and Dawson are the only ones worth fighting at 175.

    I think Hagler mentioned Tarver due to what he did to Roy. Tarver is probably going to get his rematch with Dawson. What if.......Tarver wins.
