    I'm gonna go on record and admit that IF Roy wins I won't be coming on, while the likes of Pride and JT are great to have a reasonable debate with, many on here WILL be talking shit. Probably won't come on even if Joe wins, as it is just after a fight people exhibit the least perspective, but if I do I'll guarantee I'll be gloat free, but considering my wobbling confidence in Joe I won't be in a position to gloat anyway.

    I thik the majority of us have insulated ourselves well enough, that if Joe wins, we can say..."Yes, we knew...nice one, now let's move on. "

    or if Roy wins, can say..."TOLD YOU SO ."

    I'll be here. I think Joe will win this fight and no I will not talk a bunch of shit like other's do. I forget the person's name but after I predicted a Chazz Witherspoon victory over Aerreola that asshole went on a half hour after the fight and did nothing but shove that shit in my face. So in turn I wouldn't do that to anyone because it does frustrate,and aggravate you.

    I have confidence(although my heart tugs in the other directin) that Joe will slap out a hard fought win. He has a chin and loads of stamina... He'd be tough for anyone to beat...

    His swarming attacks, although lacking power and crispness, seem to sway judges... I really think thats what it comes down to is judging. Like when Joe fought Hop the compbox #s were just silly and it's like the judges saw the same thing... Like for every 4 or five punches Joe threw like one would land... and not flush at that. But even so I had Joe winning by a point due to his sheer outworking Hop in the later rounds.

    I know we saw a resurgence of Hopkins against Pavlik but Hokins has never been KOd and has less wear and tear due to his style.

    I'm just not sure how Roy intends on dealing with Joes speed and output. We've also seen in the past that Joe has no problem getting up off the canvas and fighting on at a higher level then befor he hit the mat.

    I don't know.... This is a strange fight to try to predict to me. I just don't see Roy doing enough or KOing Joe...

    This is how I see it as well, at first I thought Joe would win a wide decision, but now I think it's gonna be close, and if it's close it could go either way. Joe's not been hurting people for a long time, the last guy he could hurt was Lacy, and that crazy mofo was running into every one of them punches.

    I hope I can come in here on Sunday and say I was wrong but I def. don't see it happening. All the props to Roy if he can pull it off cuz the way my minds eye sees it, it would be a monumental upset.

    It all depends on Roy, if he really is as shot as some say then he could be stopped late out of tiredness. That's the problem I have with this fight, if Joe wins easy there's nothing to brag about as it will be a testament to Roy's decline more than anything. I also like Roy as well, have always been a fan, so I won't take any pleasure watching him get battered, especially if he's deluded and thinking of continuing afterwards.

    On a more serious note:

    Watching the 3rd (?) 24/7 last night...Roy seemed very sober, maybe tentative and somewhat unsure of himself. I heard his words, but read his body and facial expressions...and he is either taking this fight more seriously and realistically then he has recent fights, or is generally not going in with much confidence.

    I just hope for a good display, is what it boils down to for me. Let's face it. Both fighters have already made their mark on the boxing world. It would be nice to see them finishing on a high note.

    Im rooting for Calzaghe,though i do admire Jones for his legacy in the noble art game!I just want to see these both fighters battle it out as if it was their really last entrance through the ropes of a boxing ring!I have'nt got a clue of how the fight will progress when it kicks off,but i will mention this to you's is that im putting money on a draw!At a price of 25/1 its well worth £5-£10.

    That's exactly how I feel. I'm really hoping for a good, competitive fight that does justice to what both of them have accomplished in the sport.

    See you guys Sunday
