If Calzaghe beats Hopkins, do you think he will give RJJ a fight?

    RJJ has to fight a legit contender at LHW and beat him before he can be mentioned as a future opponent for calzaghe. there are still too many question marks hanging over him.

    beating a blown up tito who hadn't fought in over 2 year doesn't cut it.

    If Joe fancies some easy money then why not fight Jones?

    because joe should be worried about legacy not money. he's minted as it is. imagine a resume of kessler, hopkins and dawson all in the space of around 12 months. RJJ simply does nothing for calzaghe now.

    Doesnt have to avoid Dawson? Beats Ghetto Warrior Hopkins, gets Dawson, then a victory parade of a fight with Jones. Nice earner I would think. Retire 2 greats then ****'es off home.

    I disagree, Amsterdam. Calzaghe will not fight more than one fight after he beats Hopkins. By the end of the year, he will be out. He will never step into the ring with someone who could maybe beat him either. The "0" is most important to Joe. Next comes big money resume wins against NAMES. I think he might just give RJJ a fight in the USA, although RJJ would travel. If Woods beats Tarver, might fight him instead, depending on which one looked better - Woods or RJJ. Possibly Pavlik too - if he beats Taylor again, but Pavlik won't do it, but would be Joe's dream. Anyway, Joe will never fight Dawson.:deal :-(

    Well he said he was more interested on Pavlik-Taylor winner than Jones. But for whatever reason I cant see either guy wanting JC at this point. Wait 6 months, and he is retired, and they will get away with not fighting him...
