    Yes slightly past prime just like Calzaghe but more importantly I believe that Roy was fighting 'clean' at this stage of his career.

    Roy Jones Jr in 1996 was an incredible fighter, a once in a generation athlete blessed with blurring speed, sublime skills & supernatural reflexes.

    Roy Jones Jr in 2008 is the very definition of a shot fighter, a worn out & weary shadow of his former self.

    It's worth pointing out Guru that Jones' loss to Calzaghe was sandwiched in between a 5 fight winning streak, where Jones had looked sharp against Hanshaw, Trinidad, Sheika then Lacy. Jones problems weren't with himself, they were with his opponent and Joe was electric that night :good

    Damn there really is absolutely no middle ground in this debate is there?!

    It was a decent win against a fighter who was on the decline. He wasn't completely shot as people make Roy out to be at the time, but he certainly wasn't the fighter he was in his prime. That said, Calzaghe was hardly in his prime either, which lends a bit more weight to the notion of it being a decent victory.

    I could go into great detail but I'd probs end up coming across as though I'm giving Joe too much credit which I'm not trying to. Decent win, nothing more, nothing less...
