Apart from the 1st round i gave all rounds to Calzaghe.....there were a few rounds which Jones scored the harder punches but on work rate alone Calzaghe won every single round.
Job Biscuit (118-109 was the score)!!!

I watched it twice today and have it the same way. A clean sweep from the second onwards. Jones was outworked all the way and it even seemed as though Calzaghe was going easy a little on Jones Jr towards the end. He could have closed the show and gone for the cut badly if he wanted to. Look at the final round, Calzaghe was content to cruise by then.
Round 1 Jones 10-8 (Calzaghe won 2 minutes 55 of that round tooso is it 10-9?
Round 2 - 11 Calzaghe 10-9
Round 12 I'll be kind and give it to Jones
so 117-110
You are right Miles.
JC was quoted in The Sun today as going easy on RJJ towards the end.
I'm para phrasing here but Joes said something like "I could have knocked Roy out towards the end but I was enjoying myeslf in there. I just kept the combinations going, in and out. Plus Roy still had some power in his uppercuts so I decided to take no risks"
Something along them lines anyway.
118-110
I gave the 1st and last to jones

Joe was going in easy on him final four rounds and would have got the stoppage if he really wanted to. The whole press conference is available on Boxingscene now, I rather watch them than read the crap the papers take out of them, they take everything out of context. Joe does say in the press conference when asked that he didn't go for the stoppage as he didn't want to take unnecesary risks.
115 - 113 Roy Jones Junior.

I gave 1,2, and 12 for Jones. I thought 11 was pretty even, maybe a Jones rounds.
I was sitting so close I practically got blood on me, and I'll tell you, most of Calzaghe's shots were blocked. It was the until Jones got cut, Roy was landing the better shots but getting out worked. Once Jones got cut, Calzaghe pretty much had his way with him until he stopped fighting and starting clowning all the time in the 11th and 12th. I was sitting surrounded by fans from the UK, including the guy I came with, and they were pulling for Jones to knock him on on his ass for fighting like an ass in those last two rounds.
