    Calzaghe wants to have a legacy and pick up some paydays before he retires, so I understand wanting to face an American. If he wants that legacy then he's gotta face a challenge not up and comers. I like Manfredo but if Joe fights him I'm done with him, after this Taylor/Winky and Hopkins/Tarver fights he's gotta fight a winner from these bouts. He could fight 1 before those fights matriculate but he has to fight 1 of those guys after they have the winners.

If Joe wants to keep me as a fan (I mean his only claim to fame on a large scale is his winover JL) his gotta fight a SOMEBODY some time soon! And then cant fall of like his done after such a GREAT PERFORMANCE!
      Settle down here son settle down...

      Who do you want Joe to fight? He is penciled in to fight on July 8th...and most of the top opponents are already in upcoming fights.

      If his true blue goal is Tarver which I think it is his goal and the same goal of HBO then his hands are tied for the moment...fighting an American with name recognition would be the next logical move...so who is that?

      Allan Green, Peter Manfredo and Kelly Pavlik are all names we have heard(I would like to see these 3 guys fight each other)...outside of those guys who else is there?

      Sure everyone would love to see this Mikkel Kessler guy in the ring with Joe but lets be fair and honest...if Tarver is the goal you dont go messing around with Kessler until you have finished your business with the lgeacy cementer Antonio Tarver.

      I think if Joe could lure Manfredo in on HBO that fight would be ideal...Peter represents more exposure for Joe then any other fighter in his division and again if Tarver is next then Manfredo seems made to order in more then one regard.

        While true who said anything about TARVER beating B_HOP which i think wont happen, Joe needs to figth someone who is worthy and TARVER will not be after B_HOP disposes of him! Now if he is to win then this fight would and sould happen but i highly doubt it, If Joe is to fight on July 8th he needs to fight say RJJ, Pavlik, or someone with a name but a legit rec as well! (manfredo, green dont have that yet) Joe just needs to step-up and soon becuz im getting bored waiting to see the guy fight again!

          Jesus Christ, he fought two months ago. If he's really fighting in July, then he's more active than any other fighter you can name right now other than Miguel Cotto.

            Hopkins will not beat Tarver.

              He was injured in the fight. In fact, he's injured in nearly every fight....
