J.Calzaghe Vs R.Jones

[Fenster]

I think Roy will KO Calzaghe if the fight happens in Wales.

One of the greatest fighters ever turns back the clock - washed up, in hostile territory, takes out the No.1 Supermiddle/Light-heavyweight, undefeated top 3 pound-for-pound fighter in the world.

It's a great story. I can see it.

The way Calzaghe is talking recently it sounds like some Vegas casino has offered a vast amount of cash to stage it. Maybe HBO are going to take a flyer on a PPV spectacular too. Jones-Trinidad made a lot of money so it's possible.

Yeah especially with King running the show.

If that is the case, maybe it wont be his last fight. Surely he'll end with a packed Millenium stadium?

If he wins he's guaranteed to get another massive offer to fight somebody, probably Pavlik. I think he'll retire though.

It says on fightnews that Calzaghe split with Warren. He says he is going after Jones and not interested in Pavlik.
Anyone else hear this?

Yup, there have been a few threads about it.

Why wast this fight ten years ago? Why didn't Joe C call out Jones then? I just hope JJR gets the same kind of judging that Calzaghe got over here. You know if that was Hopkins in Calzaghe's shoes in Wales he would have never gotten the decision that Joe got over here. That is a fact.

I would love to see it being big Roy Jones Jr fan i think Jones deserves to go out on top like he rightfully should of done after Ruiz fight. Jones has a good right hand lead and i can see him leaping in with that punch and catching Calzaghe by surprise and off balance and knocking him down. And Jones does still have enough power to turn a fight around like he did against Hanshaw when he landed that beautiful 3 punch combo, the only thing im worried about is Jones lay's on the ropes too much and i can see Calzaghe getting a BS stoppage while Jones is on the ropes.

[Tysonbruno]

I think Roy wins either by stoppage or UD 12 and if its over here im going to witness Calzaghes first loss.Calzaghe should have pushed for this fight in the early 2000's rather than fighting a past his best Jones.COME ON ROY YOU CAN DO IT!

Yeah Jones does tend to hold his hands high and just stay on the ropes. and Joe does throw alot so a stupid ref may make teh wrong decision but I dont think Jones gets stopped . Infact I think he is right in the fight and will do well early .

As he tires though Joe changes gears and he tends to always find a way to win . I cant see any boxer dealing with Joe when he is like this . He will outwork Jones and take a points decision .

I don't know when or where, but this fight, if it happens, will be the sleeper of the year. Roy will put up a much better fight than people anticipate and he still has a very good chance of winning. But look for Calzaghe to eke out a narrow UD.

[Markusdarkus]

Heard September in LasVegas.

As for the fight Calzaghe will dominate this version of Jones who does the two things you cannot do against Calzaghe and thats go to the ropes and take time of in the fight.

Roy will be puffing like a steam train after 6rds thats assuming he makes it to the 6th.

Horrible match up and a terrible way for Joe to end his career its Legacy suicide.

[Tysonbruno]

Im going to put my neck on the line and say Jones wins this by TKO i think had B Hop took the risk in the first round he could have stopped calzaghe with in a 4 rounds but he wouldn't waste his gas.
