    Roy Jones stunned Joe Calzaghe a few times but never followed it up, you shouldn't be in boxing if you haven't got the killer insinct, which RJJ clearly hasn't got anymore.

    And Joe Calzaghe's constant clowning was pissing me off aswell, RJJ looked worse in this fight than he did even in the 3rd Antonio Tarver.

    He couldn't even avoid any punches or block any, one of the saddest fights i've ever seen being a big RJJ fan. It was like watching Pernell Whitaker's last fight just sad.
    Did you call it rubbish before it took place ICB ,just asking?The writing was on the wall.I think Roy was seeing things but his reflexes were dimmed.He said as much in between one of the rounds.I think Roy's instinct were there but reflex was not.

    Its hard as shite watching an all time fav getting bested.You can almost live vicariously through fighters as a big fan and when they fall,it effects ya.Ive said before,when Holyfield was flattened face first in the 3rd Bowe fight....after having Bowe stunned badly and not being able to pull the trigger for finish....man I stopped following the sport for a good 7-9 months.This may sound twisted but I gained a new measure of repect for Roy last night.Jones did not choose to lose,Calzaghe Took it.
    Yes actually i did Spicoli and i said countless times i was only rooting for RJJ, because he was one of my favorite fighters. RJJ didn't come to win at all. Heres quote by me before the fight.

    "I think Joe Calzaghe has a very good chance of winning, im only going with RJJ because he is one of my favorite fighters. And he was one of my idols when i used to watch him as a young kid."
    Roy did what he could Ice, it was from from Ali/Holmes.. Roy couldnt pull the trigger, thats the bottom line he was game throughout the whole fight and never thought about quitting or survival mode, he fought with what he had left.. I am proud that it didnt end on the stool

    JT i was worried before the fight simply because when i was watching the 24/7 show. RJJ looked too calm and he didn't look like he had any fire in his belly.

    He didn't give it his all JT the whole thing just felt like a farce to me, RJJ wasn't even trying after about the 3rd round. And Joe Calzaghe was just clowning every second that it felt like i was watching a circus.

    It was actually embarrassing to watch especially since i had my friends and my girl over. It certainly was in no way shape or form a championship fight, i see no desire or ETC in RJJ at all.

    And Joe Calzaghe just done anything he wanted a got away with it, i was screaming at the screen just hit him RJJ Joe Calzaghe's hands are down to his waist and he is 2 inches away from you. What the hell are you doing ?

    And the ref never even looked at the cut which was horrendous, the ref was just a disgrace and the fight felt like some freak exhibition fight.

    I actually regret watching the fight now, rarely have i actually stopped watching a fight properly until its finished. Especially since i normally enjoy the sweet science, which is why im a fan of fighters like Pernell Whitaker, Floyd Mayweather Jr.

    I felt us the fans JT who rooted for RJJ, and just the fans in general got cheated badly IMO.
