I don't think he was even remotely worried about Trinidad being able to hurt him. That's why he did that. It was like a sparring session.

It's all about incentives. Sure he's not at his best, but when the incentive to win is as big as it is against Calzaghe, we may just see a rejuvinated Roy Jones.

Ok he may be nothing like the prime Roy Jones, but he can still make this a very interesting fight.
