    Joe SHOULD fight Moby, incidentally...

    ... just in case I left any doubt in other posts.

    It's okay getting a profile raiser and massive payday in beating up on what's left of Roy Jones (I can see Roy having the power to pull an upset, but realistically his chances are minimal... the guy is done) but then he has to end it with what is regarded as a serious threat to his old division.

    I don't actually think it is - stylistically Moby is gift-wrapped for Joe - but he should do it.

    It'd be nice if he could beat up a few Light Heavies as well, considering he's supposed to be the man of the division now. Don't just jump in and out, taking the most lucrative prize, bash up Dawson, Tarver and Johnson too.

    If he fights and beats RJ I would say it is likely he will bow out after that.

      He would easily beat Tarver, Tarver has not got the stamina to keep up the workrate. And i think that a win over Tarver is a lot more crebable at this stage than Jones.

      But i agree here, Pavlik (Or Moby) is the perfect style for Joe. It would be a great win, and would be an easy win (styles make fights)

          Could it possibly be because he looks like moby by any chance?

                  I agree that Moby would be a better opponent, but if he did fight Moby he'd be "ducking" a "back in form" RJJ to fight a "green" "blown up middleweight". And after he beat Moby, Pavlik would be "untested" and "never fought nobody (sic)" apart from a weak champion in Taylor and a limited puncher in Miranda.

                  After all if some posters are willing to dismiss Kessler as "not in his prime" because he will "peak in a year" then there are no limits to the depths of xenophobia that some fat yanks will plumb.
