After Dec.18th Where does the winner of Tarver/Johnson go

[Soundtraveler]

Neither Tarver nor Johnson are big enough to go up to the Heavyweight Division and make a splash - much less any waves!
With the ultra slow Ruiz hurt, there isn't a Heavyweight out there within reach, and Jirov has to get past Moorer, which I doubt will happen....

Any of you guys think Calzaghe would ever face the winner of this fight? Or even the loser for this matter!?

I cant see Tarver moving up to HW, his mouth is the only thing that woudl survive up there. Whoever wins, should hang around and take care of the mandatory defense fights (ala RJJ and Nard) sure its not good for the fans but it may be good for boxing. Completely dominate the division and prove that they are a true champ. I really don't think the winner of this fight needs to go anywhere, the fights and money will come to them. All the great fighters are 50+ lbs lighter than they are.

Both guys have been stripped of their belts. So much for title defenses.

The winner, if it's Tarver, hopes he can lure Hopkins into a fight at 168. If it's Johnson, Bernard isn't going to fight him again. Then they either go back after a belt or maybe fight a small heavyweight - a Jirov or someone like that.

No. Calzaghe's fine with fighting no-names so he can retire undefeated.

defintly
the only options after this fight are up in the HW
altho i dont see GJ being to effective at full HW
but who knows
i didnt see him beating RJJ
much less knocking him the *** out like he did

Glen had damn near every round that fight then finished his as off its a wrap for roy nobody respects him no more with his glass chin!

[triggerhappy]

i wanna see jone rematch johnson

[FistoftheDallasStar]

Hopkins should fight the winner.

[tntkid]

I'd like to see Calzaghe fight the winner myself.

[NAB]

Tarver V Calzaghe would tell us a lot about Joe.
