    Agreed. It has to happen now, even though I like Hatton he has no excuses not to fight Witter now, with him being the WBC Champion.

    I don't think it will happen though I can see him fighting Malignaggi if he agrees to come over to the UK

    There is no bigger fight out there at the moment than Mayweather v Cotto it has to happen.

    Calzaghe v Hopkins I'm undecided on as it's a lose-lose situation for Calzaghe, especially for the haters.

    If he beats Hopkins (which he will) then he'll be accused of beating an old man.

    If he loses then he will be accused of being overrated so the guy can't win.

    Yeah i agree, i dont really know who there is really thats important for Joe to fight, i mean Kessler was his real challenege. As you say Hopkins win or lose, he wont come out of it without bloody disrespect!! Woods i dont think is a big enough fight at this point of joes career to take, the only possible fight is Pavlik, but at the same time i dont think Joe should risk his legacy to a young flier like Kelly. He pulled it off against Kess but now he's proven as the best, he shouldn't have to risk it.
