If Roy had won would no-one be giving him credit? Nobody would be gloating over Calzaghe's loss?

Calzaghe would have been SLAUGHTERED.

If the fight was even remotely close Calzaghe would have been slagged-off something cronic.

Now people are moaning about him winning too EASILY.. that he showboated too much.
sorry fenster i am a big jc fan but its IMPOSIBLE to give jc credit for beating a washed up roy jones, hes not even half the man he was. like ive said so many times the fight would have meant so much more 8 years ago heck even 10 yrs ago!
Yes, Roy was past his best, everyone can acknowledge that. But enough people thought Roy would win to make Calzaghe deserve SOME credit.

Anyone BEFORE the fight that said - "this is a pathetic shit mismatch, Roy is beyond SHOT, Calzaghe will humiliate and destroy him" .. then I don't expect them to give Calzaghe any credit.
