i promise you joe wont fight dawson.....however, if he fights again he needs to fight dawson or give b-hop a rematch. no other fight makes sense...i said it b4 the jones fight, and i'll say it again, calzaghe would've gotten bigger props for beating dawson than for what he did to jones.......If Joe beats Dawson and the Kessler/Bernard winner again, he will be one of the Best of All-time. Then he gets put in the same breath as the Louis', and Robinson's, and the Ali's, and the Armstrong's, and the Leonard's. He would be rated higher than Floyd, Roy and Bernard. But Dawson needs to get some hype with him, because he is not a draw.
he's 36. can't afford to take a year off....maybe5 months tops, then decide what he's gonna do....
by the way, did any1 read tea, kessler saying bad chad "needs more exposure before that fight can be made???"


my bad, i didn't know kessler was world famous and a household name........Comment

Calzaghe doesn't get put in with Louis, SRR and the rest no matter who he beats from here on. And IMO he doesn't get rated higher than PBF, Roy or BHop regardless if he beats Dawson and a rematch. To me he didn't do enough through his career. Sure he is a top 100 fighter all time but I just don't think he did enough career wise to pass any of them.If Joe beats Dawson and the Kessler/Bernard winner again, he will be one of the Best of All-time. Then he gets put in the same breath as the Louis', and Robinson's, and the Ali's, and the Armstrong's, and the Leonard's. He would be rated higher than Floyd, Roy and Bernard.

Oh was Pavlik past his prime when Hopkins beat him??
you dum ass!!
People need to leave Calzaghe alone...I mean who has Dawson beaten???
and who that Dawson has beaten...have they beaten???
People are quick to jump on Calzaghes Resume' but the fact is he's beaten 46 warriors no matter what...half of the nuthuggers on here have never fought at all!!!!Comment

I think Calslappy should fight again a young hungry fighter like Dawson. He fought 40 something unknown fighters in the UK and then he beat Lacy, Kessler and then a 43 year old Hopkins who actually gave a better performance than Jones. And both Hopkins and Jones are way past their prime at 40 and 43. Come on Joe the best UK fighter will always be Lennox because he cleaned out the division and unified belts. You have only ruled the Super middleweight, try winning belts in 4 different weight classes like Jones or have continue fighting until 43 like Hopkins!! The Truth is that you are looking for a quick exit and not willing to fight younger fighters like Dawson. You will be respected in UK but not here. If you would have fought Jones and Hopkins in their prime you would have lost..Comment
