Infact you know what ? i would rather see Joe Calzaghe fight some of the elite SMW's. Than see Roy Jones vs Joe Calzaghe, Roy Jones lost 4 rounds against Felix Trinidad who had been retired since 2005 and was way above his natural weightclass.
Plus he almost lost a decision against the mediocre Anthony Hanshaw, RJJ is a shot fighter which is a fact. He can only fight for 1 minute of a round if that, and he fights entirely on the ropes. Thinking about this fight some more i actually think its a joke.
So you think Calzaghe will win easy then?
What supermiddles would you like him to fight?
I think Joe Calzaghe has a very good chance of winning, im only going with RJJ because he is one of my favorite fighters. And he was one of my idols when i used to watch him as a young kid.
As for who Joe Calzaghe could fight, well if we are saying he wasn't gonna fight RJJ. I would like him to fight Jermain Taylor, Lucian Bute, Carl Froch. These fighters are all young in there prime. Or even Chad Dawson at LHW.
But these fights are too dangerous and i understand why he is fighting RJJ, because is a name and he will make tons of money out of it. But Joe Calzaghe should stop contradicting himself all the time.
He said he doesn't do rematches but he fought a ridiculous rematch with Mario Veit, but he didn't rematch Robin Reid who many people thought beat Joe Calzaghe. And he won't rematch B Hop by the looks of it either another fight with alot of question marks.
He also called RJJ an old hasbeen before the Felix Trinidad fight, so what has changed his mind about RJJ now ? because RJJ won 8 rounds to 4 against a fighter who hadn't fought since 2005, and was way above his weightclass ?
