Upon closer inspection, it was discovered the wraps contained a plaster-of-Paris type substance. Margarito was a hyped up cheat! Pathetic that this is not mentioned here.
Erm, Mora was a slick, 6 foot tall middleweight? Still not as embarrassing as Jones Jr's one round demolition by Green within a year of being beaten by Calzaghe.Quote:

Calzaghe about TWO years before fighting old, rusty shot jones:-
"By this stage (2006) Roy Jones had been knocked out by Glen Johnson and Antonio Tarver and, although he's still active, I would never want to fight him now. He's not the same fighter and I'd have nothing to gain by beating a shadow of what he once was. Jones was a great fighter in his day and a great name, but he's been knocked out twice, knocked out cold. What would I gain by knocking him out for a third time?"
Fast forward to November 2008 and a 39-year-old Jones was still dangerous enough to put Calzaghe on his backside in the first round of their clash at Madison Square Garden before Joe went on to win but not knock out a faded, desperate jones.
Actually he came in under the MW limit. Secondly he's utter shyte slick or not! And we all saw what margarito became once he was placed on an even footing with his opponents. Cotto and Manny made him look like a journeyman and both easily beat Mosley too!Quote:

Green kayoing jones mean's nothing seen as jones has a chin of glass anyway and calzaghe can't crack an egg! Jones like it or not clowned Trinidad, Lacy and Sheika. Was outboxing CW Lebedev and did a better job on hopkins than pavlik, tarver and pascal 2nd fight!
The fight itself was simply a money fight for both men considering calzaghe was considering retiring and jones was on a comeback! No worse than Lewis v Tyson. No worse than Mosley v Mayweather. What's mosley done since? LOL. As for ppl hailing the Jones KD....It wasn't even a legal KD LOL. And as for JC saying he wouldn't fight jones....Didn't Bhop say the same thing? Fighters say a lot! And he said that in 06 when he was outboxing his undefeated SMW rival champions...Before jones had begun his comeback campaign and during the time he was cementing his SMW legacy and before he contemplated LHW. Stop whining because he beat all your heroes and fighters u picked to beat him!
P.S Green was outboxed by Kessler victims Mundine and Beyer.
Your talking out of your arse fella, wake up and smell the baking soda.Quote:

Now your saying it was a money fight for both fighters! But in your earlier posts you mentioned it was a masterpiece!
Make your mind up buttercake.
Yes flower...A money fight between two ageing fighters but still a master piece on JC's part!Quote:

P.S May v Mosley was a shit fight i could watch JC v Jones over n over....;)
Disagree Floyd v Shane was exciting seeing Mayweather wobbled and then he stepped up a gear and was flawless. Joe beat up old Roy Jones which was not nice.Quote:

Perfect chin.
All those steriods mosely took in the past stayed in his system and turned him into a KO machine with speed.
Floyd had moselys number in any era and everyone at the time was avoiding mosely after the destruction of margarito whether he had the wraps or not.
Although Floyd took Shane after exhausting every other easy option and was forced to fight him.Quote:

Any prime or potential that Lacy would have had was beaten out of him in this fight. It happens in boxing. Other examples could be Trinidad vs. Reid, Chavez vs. Taylor, or Trinidad vs. Vargas. Going into the fight Lacy's people thought that Joe was a joke! How wrong they were! In fact thinking about it calzaghe has produced masterclass after masterclass...Lacy, Eubank, Kessler, Jones etc
Lets not bring de la hoya into this.Quote:

Floyd already beat the golden boy at his weight, his ring, his gloves.
At 147 at any era it would be another gatti part 2.
Dont underestimate floyd. No fighter adjusts like he does.
We still havent seen the best of floyd.
