Calzaghe vs jones knockdown

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

I gotta give Calzaghe his props... In the eventual run of things, it became evident that Enzo Calzaghe isn't at all great as a trainer in many ways. So I have to kinda conclude that Joe was a special talent in his own right.... I think the guy could of seriously benefited from a guy like Freddie Road... I mean, he would of been an absolute sensation with a world class trainer.

Okay so maybe if not just Roach then maybe some xylocaine too

Roy was extremely fortunate and had that exit to greatness on the inside of his forearm

All joking aside, the irony is that he cracked Joe in the chops with the inside of his wrist/forearm.. Joe was on Queer street and hurt, I venture to say the majority of our friends across the pond were shatting themselves

And if Roy didnt have duck tape holding his guts and psyche together he should have pressed, a couple of solid shots would have done the trick... Roy still had more than enough physically just nothing left in the head, shorts and chest..

Along with Joes recuperative powers, something should be said about his will to win and confidence. I also gotta believe that when Roy didnt follow up one bit after the knockdown that Joe knew the fight was his, hence the clowning and putting his face in Roys guard multiple times.. Shame on Roy really, I look at guys who are old and past it, fight for all the wrong reasons and perhaps cant let the sport go but they still have the fighters heart and pride. Roy still thinks he is superman and Mr. Untouchable and when he had to make a statement or press past athletisicm and let it hang out and seize greatness he didnt have the guts, he was scared to take a chance, scared to get knocked out again...

It really showed me a lot, because when Roy couldnt outspeed a guy or out power him he didnt try... When Roy fought Trinidad he looked fast, crisp and strong..Why becuase he was willing to risk more against a guy who was smaller, and slower..

He had his oppurtunity with Joe, Calzaghe dared him, he clowned, he quietly questioned Roys manhood that night over and over. The biggest embarrasment was that Joe carried Roy the last quarter of the fight, thats all on Roy not Joe. Calzaghe was in a sense showing a measure of respect but a guy like Hopkins, Holyfield, Toney would have never allowed it

I would love to see Joe Vs Bute

Roy did try to land bombs after the forearm smash knockdown. But he was met by Calzaghe unleashing two fisted mental combos. By the 2nd round Roy's best punches were having the same effect as Powderpuff Paulie's would on Calzaghe.

Jones has never liked to take risks.

Unless a fighter is out on there feet Jones is likly to hold back rather than just go for it.

Type of fighter that looks for opening then fires quick shots in rather than force opening.
