    Won't Bernard have a great case for a rematch with Calzaghe?

    Joe did beat Nard, but only just - easily close enough to warrant a rematch.
    So if Joe Beats RJJ surely a Hop Cal 2 is undeniable??

    Yeah, Hopkins could push for a rematch if he beats Pavlik.


    He'd probably have to come to Wales though.

    He'd have a great case, but tbh if Hop beat Pavlik I'd sink my teeth into my hat. Also Joe doesn't have a great deal to gain from another fight wth someone whose style is diametrically opposite to his, so imho it wouldn't happen

    I dont think Calzaghe would take a rematch with Hopkins due to how bad he made him look. Dont get me wrong, I thought it was a joke that one judge could have Hopkins winning after doing nothing all fight, but I dont think there's a demand for this fight.

    Yeah - if the homeboy would be willing to come to Wales to fight in front of around 80,000.

    Damn! Hopkins and Pavlik are two of my favorite fighters. I hope this doesn't really happen...

    joe wont fight him again .every one says it was close from america but if you look at the computibox stats calzaghe landed more punches on hopkins than any other boxer ever has.
    i wont want to see a rematch for one as is was a **** fight to watch the only excitement was when calz got dropped after that i could of fallen to sleep.

    Please don't make us watch another Calzaghe Hopkins fight. Hopkins is a legend but in terms of entertainment its pretty drab. Hope Pavlik wins to set up a war with Joe, a la Kessler.

    I was talking about Hopkins getting his ass over to Wales to fight Joe to be honest mate.

    There would be no sense in him fighting Pavlik if he had just lost to B-Hop.
