It's official
Joe Calzaghe pretty clear UD..
Jones Jr is shot
Although I think Jones would had beat him in his prime..
Calzaghe must be one of the rare white fighter I CANNOT stand..he cant throw a damn punch..he just pitty slap..I hate him for that yes..im happy he had beaten Hopkins..but I hate him as a boxer..but hey, that's working 44-0..
anyway
Jones Jr is gonna have his first loss to a white boxer

Lumsdenpower, I just think it "appears" that Joe is slapping at times, becuase he is soo fast. Review his ass kicking of Jeff Lacy, I am sure that Lacy did not think he was slapped and look at Jeff's face. You don't get busted up like that through slapping.

I see Joe winning a UD or a late round stoppage. Roy it appears to have something left and should be taken seriously. Its funny how age has matured Jones. He has been respectful of Joe and gives credit to Joe's accomplishments. When Roy was in his prime he always talked smack about how great he was, but never used race to hype a fight. Looking forward to this fight.

If anyone doubts whether the caste system exists, I'd invite them to view the current poll on ESPN.com on who will win the Calzaghe-Jones fight.

It has Jones up 65% - 35%.

In their primes, Calzaghe-Jones would have been a very close fight. But this version of Jones is ranked #7 at 175 and has fought journeymen since being KO'd by Tarver and Johnson.

Joe Calzaghe is #1 or #2 p4p.

I just voted for Calzaghe. Didn't change the percentages still at 65-35. At Boxingscene every poll I see favors Roy but I still like Calzaghe by UD12.

I am hoping calzaghe gives jones a beating bigger than the one he gave to lacy. But a early knockout would also be okay with me.
