Why?
What does Calzaghe possibly have that is gonna stop Roy? Calzaghe is open for every punch in the book unless you loop them like Lacy did and Lacy didn't once use his jab uppercut or body shots.
Calzaghe is good, but stylistically its a bad matchup for Joe. he doesn't do good against fighters that move and counter punchers with speed.
He might not have one of his entirely dominant performances as he did against Lacy, but Calzaghe's been in there with movers and dancers before, and eventually, he will get them against the ropes, and that is when he'll smother them with punches. Even if this isn't the case, i think his boxing is good enough, and we know in the fihghts where his hands have gone that he can do enough in a patient style to win fights. His guard's good, his chin's superb, personally I don't think many fighters can outwork joe in punches thrown, it will either take a guy with superb movement or a massive puncher to beat him, and at this point in his career, RJJ is neither.
Good points bro, people gotta stop living in the past . Jones ain't the P4P king he once was, he's as good as shot. If you don't believe that you better wake up, watch the G. Johnson fight! Jones would get his a** handed to him at this point in his career. Jones looked good against a snail like Ajamu but once he steps in there again with a top notch opponent he's gonna get starched again, Jones should get out before he gets really hurt.!
I hate to split hairs with you Galaxy ,but to say" he will really get hurt" is a little exterme Roy has been fighting for 15 years or so and probably has less wear and tear on him than most, with the exception of the 2 KO but its notlike he is Arturo Gatii or Nigel Benn he was probably less hit than anyone in the past 20 years...His eggs are far from scrambled, Roys problems were more mental than anything..
He has 1 or 2 big fights left in him
Sweet bro I know what your saying, but look at Mesi didn't even get knocked out, Pedro Alcazar was walking around for a couple days, the G. Johnson knockout was brutal, Jones got f**ked up. Jones always relied on his reflexes but now that he has slowed down he's getting hit a whole lot more than he used to. I think he's proved all he needs to, I just don't wanna see him go down the same path as numerous others that couldn't step away.
