haha me too obviously i want JC to smash him up but theres a small part of me that can't help thinking Jones will be well up for this and it's his last roll of the dice.

I think Joe will win this convincingly, but I am anxious about the first four rounds. Calzaghe had to work hard in the early going of both his fights with Kessler and Hopkins, and Jones is going to be ready to try and chafe Joe with that lightning right of his. Jones can still pop if he sets himself up right. Joe should learn from the Hopkins experience and just exercise a little caution early on, and then as the fight goes on he can start to loosen up and let the workrate show through.

I rewatched Jones against Tito last night, and I had a difficult time coming up with reasons that Roy will have a shot based on that performance. You never know, but basing the prediction off of their last two respective performances, it's hard to see Jones winning.

If RJJ had the power he used to have and the speed he used to have he'd whip Joe's ass but Roy has been caught a couple times, he's been hurt even more recently, he is gunshy and you can't be that way with a guy who throws like Calzaghe.....Roy is going to have to be like Hopkins and be a trickier fighter not reliant on talent alone, but on his Ring IQ.

Jones messed up his body moving to heavy and the impact coming back down has had a negative effect. Jones in his prime v Calzaghe would have been a different fight but at this stage Jones does not have enough left. Calzaghe will throw too many punches and I think we will see Roy kept pretty much on the defensive apart from some flashes of the old Jones. It will be exciting in small bursts but I expect Joe to win either on points or by late stoppage.

I must admit though the saying that 'Every great fighter on the way down has one great fight left in him' is in the back of my mind... Jones would have to roll back the years though and it's a SLIm chance.

No win fight for Joe - if he wins they will say he beat a shot fighter if he loses he lost to has been. I just wonder if Jones gets a dodgy points decsion to set up a money spinning rematch in Wales

A word on Jones in his prime (forget the calibre of some of his opponents he was a perfect blend of a boxer ina punchers body - a great fighter who would have competed (if not beaten) the best around his natural weight. He probably wont be appreciated until after he's retired.

Just cant see this version of Jones having enough all round ... he will struggle with the pace JC sets ... Joe is no Tito he is a strong fast and hard guy at super mid/light heavy .. they are facts ..

And though he has been knocked down before can anyone really say yes Ive seen JC hurt bad .... Yet the same question re Jones brings a deffo answer of yes ... I also think the years are catching up on Jones now and the up and down weight divisions cant have helped and I for one think he is looking old now ...

And as for pulling one last big un off Joe will throw everything in this fight because he aint gonna blow it in what may well be his last fight.

I think Calzaghe wins this more than likely, but Jones showed some smarts against Hanshaw. I wonder why Jones is so KO hesitant, but I hope he's able to open up more against Joe. If it goes the distance I don't see Roy winning a decision.

Can't see it.

Maybe if Calzaghe freezes?

Or perhaps he's already hanging his gloves up?

REally can't see it but you never know.

Share your excitement though.

Can't wait. Can't wait.

I think he's making a lame attempt at giving Calzaghe a nick name.

Fail.

Jones is the boxer because of who I started to really love boxing, my second all time favorite maybe after the Pep. However, I don't want to see him beat the crap out of middle class fighters to then get his bells rang against a top opponent. Retire Roy, ride the sunset on your stellar resume and thanks for all the memories.
