    nope. roy is done, stick a fork in him. anyone who thinks this version of roy beats joe needs their head looked at. the man has no legs.

    I think it would be great while it lasts. I could see Roy landing a few bombs though. Joe might like the name on his CV before retirement , last US superfight.

    Junior doesn't enhance anyones legacy, or take part in any 'superfight', post Tarver/Johnson.

    Whether you like this Jones Jr. or not....It'll be in the works if Jones impresses against Trinidad and Calzaghe beats Hopkins. You have no idea how big a hype HBO and Europe will create with that one if all the pieces fall into place !!

    Having just seen Johnson vs Jones for the first time,I think there is no way in hell Jones could beat Calzaghe at this time.In fact I think he'd get stopped early if he were to sit on the ropes like he did againest Johnson.

    By superfight i mean size of the money generated & media attention - i know roys past it. But JC will want big names.

    Calzaghe avoids danger ? Kessler was not considered a dangerous fighter then ?
