Roy Jones Jr. would be overwhelmed.. Joe is too good when you don't move around. When an opponent moves in straight lines, and not very fast anymore is when Calzaghe can use angles, his punch output to win a fight. Kessler was a comparable athlete to Calzaghe, but Calzaghe's strength lies in his endurance which is why he has been so good, not because he is lightning quick or a technical god, but because he will outwork you. Put Prime ROy in there and Calzaghe would have looked ordinary, put a prime Hopkins in there and Calzaghe would have looked pretty ordinary, but put an old Roy in there and Calzaghe would look great, or at least the better of the two.
