Roy Jones Jr vs Joe Calzaghe A Disgraceful Fight.

[ICB]

I honestly couldn't watch it all, it was like i was watching a glorifed sparring session. And a dancing show all at once, first off RJJ's performance uhh where the hell was it ?

He would just throw single punches all the time, and just allow Joe Calzaghe too hold his hands down when he is 2 inches away from him. I was screaming at the screen just bloody hit him RJJ for goodness sake.

Joe Calzaghe was so wide open i can't believe RJJ didn't take those openings, and secondly all of Joe Calzaghes taunting was just ridiculous. It was like watching a clown in the ring, he done it in every round and in every minute of the round.

And the action was like a sparring session, RJJ would hit Joe Calzaghe with single punches every now and again. And then Joe Calzaghe would come wadding in landing mostly slapping punches to the body.

This may sound like sour grapes but im very disappointed, in both boxers. RJJ didn't even try to win the fight after the 1st round, and Joe Calzaghe's constant taunting dancing whatever you want to call it. Was just ridiculous to watch, this fight was not a good fight for boxing at all a disgrace IMO.

The only disgraceful thing I've seen tonight is your post. Give the man his due respect and stop being so lame already.

He beat him decisively and didn't allow him to get off and you picked wrong once again because your eye for boxing is obviously not as good as you think. Joe figured him out early ad never looked back just like he did with hopkins. Only difference is that hopkins cheated so much that we didn't get to see how good Joe Joe can look in dominating him.

And you want to talk about the showboating? You got some nerve. Roy was doing it against Tito and he tried against Joe until he noticed he was getting beat to the punch and had to cover up.

Near the end he was in survival mode. Give Joe his due respect. I hope you wake up with your senses in order tomorrow and stop this nonsense.

Coming from you i would except this kind of response, especially how much of a Joe Calzaghe fan boy you are. And how you disrespected Bernard Hopkins in your other thread. Where you got told by many members how much of a stupid post it was.

My eye for boxing not as good as i think ? who the hell are you some sort of god ? your little know it all and you think you know the lot but you actually don't know nowhere near as much as you think you do.

I think i know more boxing than you ever know, i've been following boxing for over 10 years im also an Amateur boxer. And i come from a good boxing family, and i've learnt many things. From my Grandad/Uncles ETC.

RJJ showboated in the past but not to the extent at what Joe Calzaghe was doing. Was just damn right ridiculous and disrespectful to a legend like RJJ, Joe Calzaghe done it for almost the entire fight in every round.

I give Joe Calzaghe no real credit for beating a fighter, who hasn't had a stoppage win since 2002. And has been a shot fighter for atleast 7 years. And if you read my other posts i said this before in Bilbo's thread.

You know what? I'll give you the benefit of the doubt because it's still the night of the fight and I can understand you're angry but, if you're still talking this reckless a few days from today then you are a true hater.

I'm not biased toward any fighter. I'm Puertorican so no one can say I'm all into my hometown guys. Joe is a special fighter that I truly appreciate getting a chance to see. This is a guy that makes the best adjustments in the business and he's come back from 2 first round Knockdowns to win convincingly unless you're a Roy or hopkins gan or just a Joe hater.

Calzaghe P4P #1

I never said Joe Calzaghe wasn't a great fighter, i was actually more disappointed with RJJ than Joe Calzaghe. RJJ showed no desire or ETC to win the fight, and Joe Calzaghe's taunting was just ridiculous.

I've personally never seen a fighter taunt that much in one fight, not even Muhammad Ali.

I give Joe Calzaghe credit for beating Mikkel Kessler, Bernard Hopkins, Chris Eubank ETC. And i think especially in the Mikkel Kessler and Chris Eubank fights he looked great.

And even though i feel Bernard Hopkins may of beaten Joe Calzaghe by one point. I still think Joe Calzaghe done well considering Bernard Hopkins still has alot left in the tank.

I think people are misunderstanding me im just disappointed with everything regarding the fight. The hype ETC, even though i knew RJJ was shot i thought he would atleast try and win, and let it all hang out.

But he didn't after the first couple of rounds he was there just to survive. And Joe Calzaghe was just constantly taunting, that at times it did look like a glorified sparring session.

Im very disappointed with both fighters, and thats not to say Joe Calzaghe isn't a great fighter he done his job and won, no arguments but im still very disappointed, and i hope i've made my point more clear now.

I understand your point but you're talking about one 2 of the best two fighters of our generation and I feel like I witnessed a hell of a fight regardless of their age. Both guys fought clean and there's no controversy and that's very important to see in a fight of this magnitude.

The showboating was started by Jones and Joe kept it going. I've seen Roy show out plenty times in his career so I don't understand what the big deal is with a guy having some fun in what was probably gonna be the last 12 rounds of an illustrious career.

[awdleyfuturehalloffamer]

And unlike the hopkins fight, this fight was fought clean with very few clinches. That's how all fights should be fought. Roy showed heart if not anything else tonight.

You might just appreciate going forward, he certainly didn't land clean punches on Hopkins, in fact those three left hands they showed leading into the fight were about all he landed on Bernard. I agree he made adjustments against Hopkins, but I think it evened up the fight, and I had him winning most of the rounds from that point on MORE because Hopkins got tired then anything, and He was still throwing a lot of punches. I had it even with Hopkins winning on the knockdown, how does that make somebody a hater. I had him winning all but maybe 2 rounds against Roy. I question somebodies boxing knowledge even in the great boxing nation of Peurto Rico if they think leaving your hands down and asking to be hit is making adjustments. I think that Joe realized Roy wasn't throwing punches, thats not a huge surprise. He didn't give any Roy a whole lot of different looks, he just imposed his will on a guy who has let opponents do that to him for the past 5 years.

Joe is a great fighter, but his weaknesses weren't exposed by old men, his weaknesses because of his chin need to be exploited round after round, and Bernard and Roy couldn't do that effectively anymore.
