    ...except for that Jones was beating/even with Joe until the cut. Which came from a punch at a very strange angle.

    Once Roy couldn't see things changed and Joe taunted him. Let's not forget the first few rounds though.

    If Joe pulled that **** against a near-Prime Roy he would have been KTFO.

    it was close in the early going cause of the knockdown and calzaghe's "caution" (aka being a chicken ****). i was in the fourth row and jones had nothing left in speed or reflexes and knew it; he was just waiting for counter opportunites and you knew it wasn't gonna last forever

    It was a shame to see a great get beat like that, but it's not like I feel really sad for him. He did the same to loads of people.

    A prime Joe without ****ed up hands could have put full power into his shots, thus probably would've put Glass Roy into a mini-coma.

    Well, can't feel sorry for Roy when he used to taunt so much in his fights.

    Calzaghe is a tool.

    He tried to convince people Jones was still good when he knew he was shot, then acted like a complete dick during the fight. The showboating was complete overkill.

    :thumbsupwasn't the ***** **** talking roy, telling him to retire, weeks before the fight was signed and once roy agrees to terms joe c acts like it's 1997 and it's for p4p status or some ****? joe c is talented but a douchebag who did the same thing that berbick did to ali, marciano did to louis, and willard did to johnson. congrats *******: you beat up a corpse and bragged about it

    Roy gets KO'd by Tarver, then all of the sudden, he's "Out of his prime."

    Splarg!!

    Tarver, Johnson, and Calzaghe -- all guys who had Roid's number.

    I thought Calzaghe made himself look stupid putting his face between Roy's guard. It really showcased just how shot to hell Jones really is. JC is a ***.
