    Calzaghe to stay at 175; fight Dawson?

    I've been reading several reports stating that Joe Calzaghe will have great difficulty getting back down to 168 lbs. If he cannot a fight with Kelly Pavlik is out of the question. If Joe's last fight should be at 175 and Roy Jones jr. likely has priced himself out of the Calzaghe sweepstakes I'm speculating that a likely last hurrah for Calzaghe could be a unification showdown with Chad Dawson.

    Who do you think would win this match-up?

    I'd like to see Tarver-Dawson then Calz fight the winner of them, it would be a great way to end a career.

            Dawson is young, inexperience and unproven.
            Not the way Joe should go out.
            It will only continue the talk about his inferior resume, e****ially when there are champions willing to fight him.

              Yep. That Dawson that hardly beat Glen Johnson who was beaten by the legendary Sven Ottke.

                Mainly danish sites stating that Enzo had said Joe would be having a hard time coming down again.
