Jones didn't duck Calzaghe. He was signing the highest paying contract in hbos history coming off of beating Toney. He did what he wanted, when he wanted and with who he wanted. Hbo was approving guys who were known fighters and had shared the airwaves. Some were near terrible at 168 but he was well payed and fawned over. At the time a simple reply of "who the fuck is this guy" concerning Calzaghe would have been heard. Benn had a better case frankly. I won't say he ducked him, but Roy did make a habit of maximizing his earnings with minimal risk.
