    Joe Calzaghe was so wide open i can't believe RJJ didn't take those openings, and secondly all of Joe Calzaghes taunting was just ridiculous. It was like watching a clown in the ring, he done it in every round and in every minute of the round.

    And the action was like a sparring session, RJJ would hit Joe Calzaghe with single punches every now and again. And then Joe Calzaghe would come wadding in landing mostly slapping punches to the body.

    This may sound like sour grapes but im very disappointed, in both boxers. RJJ didn't even try to win the fight after the 1st round, and Joe Calzaghe's constant taunting dancing whatever you want to call it. Was just ridiculous to watch, this fight was not a good fight for boxing at all a disgrace IMO.

    Truth is Jones just can't pull the trigger anymore...It happens to fighters of his style when they reach a certain age...Fighters that rely on speed and combos...Happened to Ali, Happened to SRR, happened to Leonard....

    That is the one bad thing about fighters who are unconventional...

    Truth is Calzaghe is showing signs of age himself since the Kessler fight....He is sloppy at times and often smothers himself trying too hard....

    It was a dissapointing fight yes but then again maybe people were looking to see the RJJ and Calzaghe of 2000 in there tonight not 2 guys at the twilight of their careers....


    I hope both retire now....They both have made their legacy's and there is nothing left for them really

    Agreed.

    Roy Jones Jr. should be ashamed of himself for not showing up to fight or win.

    Calzaghe should be ashamed of himself for his constant ridicilous taunting and behaving like that. No respect. No class.

    The fight sucked. And years from now should not be looked upon as any kind of great accomplishment for Calzaghe or for boxing.

    Roy is done. The killer instinct is gone. its been gone. And without it he cannot win at the elite level. The reflexes are not there anymore either, least not enough.

    I don't know why people are so mad at Roy, he's done, he's been done, this was clear a long time ago.

    If anything I guess you could be mad at him for taking the fight but there wasn't a whole lot he could do after that.
