    I'd pick Calzaghe over Ward and Stevenson, but I think Kovalev poses the biggest threat with the straight shots he throws, the volume of them and the power.

          JC was tailor made for RJJ, ridiculous. Couldn't stop right hands from Mitchell, Hopkins, Bika etc. it wouldn't even have been competitive.

            When did you predict I'd respond in this exact fashion nostra dumb a55?
            Calm down.
            I had Johnson ahead in the Ottke fight.
            His style is fan friendly and he just about fought everyone
            Glen was mentioned as an opponent for Joe on several occasions. I recall an open letter to Joe calling him out, but Joe retired.
            It is what it is.

                    Beats all three but I'd expect Kovalev to give him hell in the early rounds until Joe adapted.

                      He beats Ward with more activity in a very dull fight. Split decision with no one wanting to see a rematch.

                      He gets dropped by Kovalev but adjusts and manages to edge the Russian down the stretch. Split decision W.

                      He makes Stevenson look like a fool for about eighty percent of the fight, but Adonis manages to knock him down once. Joe's too smooth for the finish, though. Joe by UD.
