    :huh One's retired, one should be retired and one's a super-middleweight. Shouldn't Jean be chasing a unification with Cloud or a rematch with Chad?

    Hopkins whether he should be retired or not is a big money fight for Pascal and probably competitive for the fans.

    but Calzaghe was rediculous

    All three are big $ fights. Why fight Cloud or Dawson when he can make triple fighting the guys he called out?

    Bute is fair enough, Hopkins aswell although I don't the idea of it. I wish people would give the Calzaghe stuff a rest.

    From a fan stand point, I'd rather Pascal try to unify with Cloud first and then if he wins, give Dawson the rematch. Win or lose against Dawson, the fight after would be Bute, while hoping that Bute took care of business at 168lbs also.

    I still think Hopkins has it. Pascal should fight Hopkins in late January/early February 2011.

    they are all BIG money fights.
    He just tooled 'BAD' Dawson, he aint going to call him out is he...
    As for cloud, he dont bring **** to the table.
    Bute is the only sensible option.

    I dont see how it would be a bad fight. We know that Pascal will press the action & BHop will have no choice but to counter. But, in the end the fight will never happen b/c there isnt a mega payday involved. David Haye is the fight that Bhop is chasing. :rasta

    It's just a way for him to say he will fight anyone!

    Unify with Shumenov then Cloud then a Rematch with Dawson :hey

    I doubt a fight with Shumenov would happen right now, he's not a big enough draw. Even some of the hardcore fans don't know who he is.

    seems calling out Calzaghe is all the fashion now. Noing that he is old and unbeaten, big money and a winnable fight now everyone seems to be on the bandwagon. When he was in his prime noyone wanted to fight him.
