    Thing is when Roy would do it, it came across as a skill and would just amaze you. Bernard as well against Pavlik with his bolo punching. Even Emanuel Augustus had us in fits last night with his showboating because it was comedic...but JC comes across as the most unlikable arrogant prick when he showboats.

    But hey, maybe that's just me...

    I think it really depends if you like the fighter or not.

    I'm a massive Calzaghe fan and so thought it was awesome doing to Jones what Jones has done to so many other fighters over the years.

    I also don't think Jones is nearly as shot as people say.

    It honestly wouldn't suprise me if he got a fight with Hopkins next and won a decision.

    Hopkins isn't a relentlessly punching, fast paced, physical fighter in the way Calzaghe is and the slower pace might suit Roy.

    Him and Hopkins in a rematch I still really want to see, and I still think Roy would have a chance of winning that fight, although I'd put Hopkins as favourite obviously.

    Thanks for the avatar pic by the way, it's a real treat

    Only because Joe is still winning when hes doing it.

    A fighter moving up a weight to fight established, class fighters in that weight and completely box their ears off can do what he wants.

    If Bernard and Roy didnt like it, maybe they should have tried beating him for it but they couldnt, Joe was too good for em.

    Now, Roy doing it to a fighter moving up 2 weights, coming off a loss and 3 years out is a bit tedious
