      Fights avalaible at 160:

      Winky rematch
      Arthur Abraham
      Edison Miranda
      Sergio Mora
      Kelly Pavlik
      Felix Sturm
      John Duddy
      Khoren Gevor (Taylors Mandatory)

      Many fights avalaible, but since Calzaghe is about to retire after a few fights, why not Taylor retire Calzaghe, If the calzaghe that showed up against Bika fights Taylor, he is done...

      At supermiddleweights you have

      Joe Calzaghe
      Carl Froch
      Allan Green
      Kessler
      thats about it

        Good idea, he will probably be too much of a physical force for anyone in the division and Wright would never again win a title as long as he's around. If a guy is able to take away Hopkins' title off of pure physicallity, he should stay in the division he is in as long as he can.

          good career move to stay at 160. i bet mannys upset that taylor is such a slow learner.wearing himself out throwing anxious punches still and other flaws.
          calzaghe would make taylor look bad.calzaghe is the smartest and would make adjustments in the ring if taylor fights dumb.imo...and i bet manny knows it.
          plenty of money to be made at 160. wright,the euros like sturm,castillejo. edison miranda.

            Ouma didn't really take a beating. Wright looked much worse than Ouma did last night. Ouma will be alright and he will go back to 154 and become champ again. I would like to see a rematch with Karmazin. I'm sure Karmazin is ready to give Ouma his rematch now.

              Ouma took a beating. Taylor landed many bombs that landed cleanly on Ouma. And im glad Taylor is not moving up he only gained 7 pounds after the weigh in and he has a lot of people he can fight at middleweight. Calzaghe has had many years to prove himself against known fighters, he too don't need Taylor since he can just move up in weight or fight that other top super middleweight. Taylor will continue to dominate at 160. He makes for good fights.

              edit: I just checked Oumas record, he got tko'd in 1 round, by Augastine Silva at welterweight. After this tko lose, he moved up in weight.

                From what I hear, Ouma was clowning around in that fight and got caught while looking in the audience. He ended up losing on the three knockdown rule.

                  This kinda spears alot of plans.

                  The bigger fight is at 168, but there's more fights at 160.. that much is true.

                  If he wants to retire at 30 as an undefeated great then he'll have to move up eventually.

                      Of they guys I've seen Calzaghe and Kessler are the best on this list (excluding Winky), so 168 is where the tought fights are for him. Mora, Miranda, Sturm, Duddy, Abraham are probably not fights he could lose.
