Roy Jones Junior - Robbed against Calzaghe

[littlebif]

Now I'm not trying to take away anything from Joe Calzaghe, except his unbeaten record of course. I've never had more fun watching too middle aged man prance around, in a semi non-gay way. Here is my scored card

Round 1 - Roy Jones
Round 2 - Even
Round 3 - Joe
Round 4 - Roy
Round 5 - Roy
Round 6 - Joe
Round 7 - Joe
Round 8 - Big Roy round, he commanded the ring like a champion
Round 9 - Roy round, better work from Superman, landed better
Round 10 - Joe C - Good work and combos
Round 11 - Joe C - Roy didn't do anything
Round 12 - Roy - Joe ran off.

115 Roy Jones - 113 to Calzaghe

Roy Jones Junior blatantly won the fight, and here are the 10 REASONS WHY

1) Calzaghe hardly landed, ever. Hitting elbows and gloves doesn't count.

2) Calzaghes punches had nothing on them.

3) Fighting with a lot of blood on you makes you look super hard, which in turn means you are winning.

4) Calzaghe couldn't do anything when Roy Jones stuck his jab out.

5) Calzaghe was easy to hit. Especailly when he stood in front of Roy with his hands by his sides.

6) Roy Jones is almost 40. This means he deserves more credit.

7) Counter punchers count much more then slaps on the side.

Joe C should have been disqualified for show boating.

9) Roy Jones should be given more credit for show boating.

10) Sugar Ray Robinson won rounds without throwing a single punch. So did Willie Pep. Roy Jones won an entire fight without throwing a single punch. That is something.

But I guess Roy Jones loosing the decision is just, because we all remember the stinky decision he got given to him. Against of course, the true Heavyweight Champion, John Ruiz.

Yours in manliness,
Fantana

Did you watch the fight with your eyes closed? Calzaghe dominated more or less every round after the 1st.

If you think calzaghe should of been DQ for showboating then Jones should have at least another 20 losses on his record for the same thing.

I know LOL, he is clearly taking the piss

To be honest though Calzaghe did hardly land anything of value, Roy had the cleaner shots, he was just outworked.

He put full force into some body shots when he had a clear shot, also the two straight lefts (one of which caused the cut) he landed had good power on the end of them, the second one was a fast, fast shot..

You can name maybe five occurence that you can remember off hand where Calzaghe truly tagged Roy? I can name the 4 times in a row Roy countered Calzaghe with right hands, the number times he tagged Calzaghe with the right hand. That knockdown punch, the uppercut, his flurry off the ropes in the round 2. This is just off hand, I don't konw what else to say, Calzaghe obviously won the fight, but I am seeing it closer everytime I watch it.

You are completely out of your tree if you really think it was in any way close. And lets not forget that Calzaghe cruised down the stretch out of respect for Roy. Jones Jr could have been stopped anytime Calzaghe wanted to truly turn it up, but he was just showing off in there toying with Jones.

Calzaghe stunned Roy a couple times with the Right hook to the body. That thing was beautiful. Jones thinking he knows something about rope-a-dope!

Anyone remember after the JC/Kessler fight when they asked him if he was hurt in the <7th I think?> round? Kessler told the commentators he was gonna go down from the body shot. Joe's got power... No doubt.

Roy only wanted to make it to the end of the fight, and I think JC wanted to live out RJJ's embarrassment for as long as possible. you had to know this was gonna go 12 rounds

Next fight? Joe Calz vs. James Toney! He needs to beat every middleweight world champion from the 90's and I'll let him retire with all that clout. Heck, maybe Marvelous M could come outta retirement? Jake LaMotta could come along too! I mean the possibilities are endless. Joe... FIGHT BCD AND GET ON WITH IT!!! WE WANNA SEE YOU BEAT A GREAT CONTENDER 1 MORE TIME!

Your full of shit, he never hurt Roy to the body, Roy has never been hurt from a body shot, Trinidad tried, and couldn't dent Roy's body, Tarver tried, and couldn't dent Roy to the body, same with Glen Johnson, Julio Gonzalez, David Telesco, Merqui Sosa, all bigger punches then Calzaghe is right now. Roy was never hurt, Calzaghe landed pitter patter punches downstairs, and hit Roy a lot on the gloves, but luckily for him Roy couldn't respond as he would have in his prime, and that Roy isn't as fast as he once was.
