    I cant imagine many folks aligning themselves with the notion that "Calzaghe is expected to lose."


    If anything, I imagine most are leaning towards Joe, not only on account of his unbeaten streak and capacity for suprise, but also because many will think of Roy vs Johnson and Tarver.

    There IS a chance, and maybe a decent one, that Roy pulls this off (Im picking him SD) but it relies almost entirely on which version of Roy shows up. The Jones that fought Ruiz, and the Jones that fought Trinidad have a very good shot at this.

    We know which version of Joe is showing up , and he's showing up to win, as usual. I dont think anyone is 'expecting' Joe to lose.

    Can someone please tell me what the hell Roy Jones Junior has done in his last 6 fights that give people the impression he can beat Calzaghe ??

    I'm hoping so much that Roy can turn back the clock and beat Calzaghe , but maybe he is to far gone I'm not sure.
    but for the record i had a dream Jones floors Calzaghe in the second round , the rest i don't remember.

    COME ON ROY 1 MORE GREAT SHOW .
    I don't think he's that far gone. You don't just lose all that talent. I actually think he's going to pull it out. I'm rooting for him. I like both fighters to be honest. I'd just like to see him do it and go out right at the very top.

    He probably did miss out on some good fights with those guys, thou I think he would have beaten them all. Benn might've put up an excellent show and that would've been a cracking fight. He was too good for Eubank, and Collins would maybe have been bullied a bit with RJJ's bigger natural size and strength.

    I've no doubt RJJ, would've fought them if matches could be made, doubt few of those guys would be keen thou (maybe Collins), unless the money was huge.

    I remember watching the Jonathan Ross show around the time all the Brits were fighting each other. Benn and Eubank were in the studio and then he put up a video link to James Toney (who was immense around this time, and IBF champion If I remember). Toney then called them cowards for not fighting him and then said exactly what he would do to them. Benn muttered something like 'idiot' and 'fool' to Toney. Eubank didn't say a word and was visibly shaken, and actualy looked confused and scared. Not long after that RJJ destroyed Toney, I doubt any of those 2 would've liked to step into the ring with him, they were happy making enough money just fighting each other and also the likes of Watson and Collins. IMO RJJ would've beaten them all, with a bit to spare.

    When he does win I'm sure you'll tell us it was only because Roy was so old, if they'd fought ten years ago etc. etc. I can hardly wait.

    Off topic but....

    As I read the title of this thread this verse popped into my mind for some reason.

    Rot has a very good chance. Joe doesn't have the ROY kryptonite of power to take him out with one shot.

    He may be the underdog to you, but not according to the bookies.

    Calzaghe is around 1/3
    and Jones Jr. is around 5/2

    not a huge difference, but Calzaghe is the clear favorite.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    It will be a good fight, I can't see jones holding back much tbh. his strategy will be to try and make calzaghe go on the back foot and counterpunch. I think Jones is still a bit too fast for Calzaghe to be successful if he does this.

    We all know he should have fought Pavlik though. He could have had that fight now and fought Jones in the spring for a last big payday, which to me made the most sense.

    I would love to see a spark of Jones of old turn up. Prime for prime I think it was close between these two, but that doesn't define greatness. Greatness is about stepping outside of your comfort zone and defying all odds, imo Calzaghe has not done this, regardless of how good he is.

    benn said toney was thick as 2 short planks, its easy for toney to be tough when your 1000's of miles away. Eubank visibly shaken thats rediculous, i seen that jonathan ross show loadsa times.

    Benn always said he wanted RJJ & thought that RJJ would prob beat him but said that he would be so up for that fight, it would of been a dream fight. Collins said he wanted to go to florida & knock on RJJ door for a fight. Eubank in his prime & mentally motivated beats RJJ.
