My only qualm with the fight was Calzaghes showboating. There was too much of it. Stop posing and just throw your punches!! Thats what people like to see Calzaghe do, and to not do that and just go overboard with the posing was a bit irritating.

You can't help but feel there was too much respect from Joe in terms of not going all out to overwhelm Jones. He could have thrown a lot more. But at the same time all that showboating was itself disrespectful.

Like a cat pawing at a toy and doing a little jiggle each time it makes its pounce.
id say more annoying than decent. All that clowning shit really pissed me off, i was hoping with this being maybe his last fight he would keep his hands up and fight like he did long ago when he actualy had an interest in boxing and wanted to win in style. Can see now he is clearly 100% bored of the sport and can't be bothered to keep the focus during a fight like he used to, it's all fun and games with him now since the kessler fight, sad. I hope this is it for him unless he fights Dawson and wants to go out in real style, not that shit he pulled last night, i think he could of stopped Roy if he kept his head down and didn;t stop giving 100%...

Bad thing is people now look at that like thatis his best, when when he wanted to fight he put on much greater shows, see Lacy, see Kessler... now fighitng guys like Hopkins, Roy, guys whom in his head he has already beaten before they get in the ring with hi, he puts on dodgy shows like that.
