With Hopkins wanting to fight in Summer 2008, whilst Calzaghe wants a fight much earlier and the issues of money splits as well. According to a report in the Daily Mail, the fight is close to being finalised for March for the IBF Light Heavyweight title. Calzaghe will win and dominate Woods quite easily.
if calz gets paid well and gets the belt and then fights hopkins then i will be happy. yes i wnated him to beat the fuck out of hopkins but woods would be nice. not by any means the fight i wnated for him but atleast he will become a 2 weight champ.
Im not interested unless hes fighting Winky, Hopkins, Pavlik or Dawson.
I dont even give a shit if he fights pavlik, but the rest on your list are ok picks, woods is unacceptable, anyhow that fight happens, calzaghe will get criticism.

winky is a 154 really. he only went up to fight hopkins because hopkins likes small guys.

Winky??? Are you kidding? I loved Winky against Mosley, Tito, etc., but he can't hang with the big boys.
This fight is ok, keep Joe busy and make Hopkins a unification. Maybe Joe's last three fights will unify the entire LHW division.
This is a good fight for Calzaghe to test the waters at 175 pounds and he can bring a belt to the table if he ever faces Hopkins. Calzaghe should be able to win this one by a UD but there are much better fights out there for him.
Woods ain't no chump but Calzaghe wins this, it will be good for Joe to settle himself in a fight there and have something to offer to offer when going against the champions, I can't lie though I was hoping that Antonio Tarver would be his pick, maybe him or Dawson but thats asking TOO much especially when Woods is a champion in his own right.. I support this fight, it would allow Joe a good chance like I said a little above to get used to Light Heavyweight, he will also have a belt to add more of a kick to Head-Hop to get out of his "my shit don't stink" attitude he's been having for like? ever, 50-50 is fair, even Jones said at one point he would settle but Head-Hop wants more, the guy is shameful.. 100
its good it Calz gets a Win,takes the belt,and brnigs something to the party for aclash with Hopkins later in the year..would make that fight that much bigger
Agreed, its the only positive I can take from this fight!

This would be any easy at all, I think woods is very very underrated in England because he doesnt have the Frank warren PR team...But i hope the fight happens JC by UD
