    I just don't see it, if anything I think he's been overrated by many coming into this. While there are some Calzaghe haters probably downplaying Roy's ability coming into this to take away from Joe if he wins, seems like there is some of the opposite of that going on with some Joe fans.

    He's not shot to pieces but his legs are not there, very shaky, that's why he's spent so much time on the ropes in the last few years, he doesn't seem nearly as explosive even though he's still fast, his chin has obviously been dented and mentally I'm not sure if he's really there.

    I have said this for a while, this is not a deal where I will say he grew old overnight if he loses to Joe. He might land cleaner punches early on but he won't be able to keep up as the fight goes on.

    I think he has to hurt Joe, and not just once, I think he has to be able to fairly consistently rock Joe and I just don't see that happening. If I am wrong I am wrong, I was pretty spectacularly wrong about Cotto-Margarito but I'm much more confident about this than that fight.

    not a fan of either actually but it would be a great story if Roy won.
