I think calzaghe will actually fight pavlik after he and roy become gazallionaires. It just seems to me that way if pavlik and his camp can keep it up and continually call joe out he's going to get in the ring with pavlik sometime early next year and then leave the sport and still have doubters. I think joe has basically become one of those fighters that no matter whom he fights someone's always going to come up and doubt him, I definitely much rather see him go out in a fight against a prime pavlik then a pretty shot roy though.
If Calzaghe beats Jones then they will say that Roy was shot which lets be honest, he is. He isnt a prime Roy. And if Calzaghe loses then he lost to a shot Roy Jones so it ruins his legacy
The last time I picked against Joe C. was against Lacy. But I gotta hunch that Roy wins this fight, Calzaghe looked small against Hopkins and he will look real small against Roy.
Roy is gonna hit a helluva lot harder than B-Hop and be twice as fast. Calzaghe won his fight against B-Hop convincingly, but was not as dominant as I expected him to be. I think that Hopkins size and power was the reason why.
Jones is bigger than B-Hop, much faster, but most importantly.......... can match his work rate if needed.
RJJ is diminished for sure, but is far from "shot."
Yeah but the thing is he isnt as active as he used to be and is very selective. And as with Hopkins he may hand the bigger cleaner shots but Joe can outwork him whether he is landing or not. Jones isnt as active and Joe may be hitting arms and gloves but he;d get the round. If Roy is gonna win he has to truly be active and I don't know if he can anymore. I'll be rooting for him though.
I tend to agree that IF he beats both of them it will really solidify his legacy, but there will always be haters no matter what he does. People just love to hate successfull people.
However i wouldnt write off Jones just yet. Never count out a legend because you never know.
I think Calzsaghe should steer clear of roy and fight Pavlik and some other young prime boxer. Then even haters can't deny he has a good legacy.
