    Calzaghe back in October

    Joe Calzaghe is going to return to the scene of his greatest ever win on October 14th when he fights at the MEN Arena in Manchester. His opponent has yet to be decided but Ricky Burns will be facing John Murray on the undercard.

    Who do people think he will be fighting? It won't be Johnson or Woods as they will have fought only 6 weeks prior to this.

    I think this'll be worth goin to, as that undercard fight'll be a corker and hopefully Joe'll be fighting someone worth while.

    I'm not holding my breath for a quality opponent, or even an actual match for that matter

      Johnson is fighting Woods, Kessler is fighting Beyer, who IS there to fight?

      Allan Green, Roy Jones Jr.

      I doubt either of them will take the fight in October.

        i wish i could disagree but i think you're completely correct. i'd half expect it not to happen, and if it does he'll be fighting some guy with a solid record that we've never heard of. its a shame he's fighting these guys who might be pretty decent but dont have a rep so he gets no credit. take mger mkrtchian. unheard of before calzaghe fought him, gets stopped in 7 - so what? but since then he's gone on to win the european title and look pretty good.

              He won't fight a worthwhile opponent again. He'll probably defend his belts against a few small timers and then he'll retire whilst riding the wave of popularity that he has after beating lacy.

                He should fight quality opponenet in there hometown too and fight guys in the US.

                He is too big and now to fight in Britian
