I guess everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I didn't really see the fight as even from 4th round on. I think the only thing Jones carried through that fight was that menacing smile he's always had. Not sure how he kept that smile through all those punches...

Calz best punches in that fight were right hooks to the body. It completely neutralized a Jones late rally.

Compubox or no. There is hardly a way to give Jones the nod for his "effort"
Watch the 4th round, Calzaghe doesn't land a whole lot, then he gets Roy on the ropes and Roy counters him with like 12 clean punches to which Calzaghe has no answer but to show boat, and gets hit three times cleanly again with his hands down.

THe fifth I give to Calzaghe in a close round, then in the sixth Roy IMO lands the better punches while Calzaghe isn't landing a whole lot, then Roy doesn't win a round until the 12th. Roy doesn't get hurt to the body, and Calzaghe never made him flinch, Calzaghe did land some good body punches, but Roy easily took them, he's always had a solid body that could take anything dished out to it.
Yes he did. His body was always solid. You used to see him even in his prime go to the ropes and let his opponent attack his body while he took a breather, then out he'd come and smack whoever all over a bit more.
