Calzaghe set to return to the ring?
There's been talk in recent days of Joe Calzaghe making a return to the ring and William Hill make the Welshman odds-on favourite to beat his old rival Bernard Hopkins should they meet this year.
Hill's make the 38-year-old 4/7 to defeat the American should they meet for a second time.
Calzaghe and Hopkins last fought in April 2008, with Calzaghe winning via split decision.
The Wales boxer then went on to defeat Roy Jones Jr. by unanimous decision before retiring from the sport.
Hopkins is 5/4 to win the fight should it take place with the draw a 25/1 chance.
William Hill spokesman Graham Sharpe said: "This is a difficult fight to price. Calzaghe is the younger man and has already beaten Hopkins who is much older than him but who has been more active of late and recently beat Roy Jones Jr.
"The fight would still be attractive to boxing fans and should produce a good betting turnover."
