        I'd only want him to come back if he fights some real competition... like Bute, Dawson... a legit contender

            Don't be sure, the Italian Dragon will stack up rounds against every fighter. The only way to beat him is if his chin is battered. Dawson is not slick enough.

              Dream Scenario:

              1. Fights Antonio Tarver or Glenn Johnson.
              2. Gets KTFO.

                He ran out of drug money already?

                Btw Robin Reid deserves respect. He beat Calzaghe and Ottke but gets no credit for it. Just the politcs of boxing ruins the sport, I hate it.

                    Hopkins did a fairly good job although to be fair the guy was 43 years old.
                    Associated Press, ESPN, Yahoo and Adelaide Byrd had him winning the fight

                    Calzaghe hasn't faced opposition on a level like Dawson or Bute in his prime what makes you think he would come back to win.
                    Calzaghe dodged Dawson before he ain't gonna fight him now.
