    Can't really blame him. Of course there is Dawson, but I don't think he's ready yet. The other option is Pavlik, maybe at a catch weight around 170. I think Pavlik will be available for him once he beats Taylor again.

      Can we have a date for the fight first before Calzaghe starts talking about his last fight.

        Joe will retire undefeated!

        He will also have proved he's the best fighter of his generation, in his weight range.

          Of course it'll be his last fight, Hopkins will cripple him.

                Dawson, call out Cal after you beat Johnson and Tarver. Cal has had a pretty good career, after this career payday he can call it quits as an undefeated champion.

                  If Chad really beats Tarver and Johnson, that talk can start. But a lot stands in the way of that.

                    You can tell that is the fight I REALLY want to see. I know there are alot of things to be proven by Chad but something tells me he will get the job done. He said earlier he is done being the nice guy and will begin to call fighters out. So hopefully he can call out the "Italian Dragon".
