This is why people hate Joe Calzaghe

Yeah always felt Barkley could have continued and Benn was guilty of a very blatant punch whilst Barkley was down. But the 3 knockdown rule was there so it's a very valid victory, just think it could have gone down as a classic had it continued for a few more rounds, both fighters went at it and both were hurt in that 1st round

Kessler
Taylor
Woods
Adamek
Erdei

These are the only names Calzaghe should be looking to fight after Bika. Otherwise there's just no point in him carrying on.

I'd rule out anyone below 168, given that Calzaghe has been at 168 too long & has attractive matchups ahead at 175. For me, that also means cutting off Mundine, who is going down to 160.

I'd add:

Andrade
Bute
Green
Briggs

Because they are tough bastards, very dangerous
