    No. I doubt he has 1/4 of a round left in him - seriously!

    I think he might surprise a lot of people.

    Its the fight im least looking forward too out of the big 4 coming up.I would much sooner see Calzaghe and Froch.As for Jones he might pull a rabbit out of the hat but i cant see it.The fight should have happened 10 years ago in any case!

    I hope to God Calzaghe wins - because this would be the worst thing that could happen for him, and British boxing.

    All the statements made about Jones being shot etc would really haunt him.

    thats why it is a poor fight to take.

    he lose credit for taking this fight whatever the outcome

    he should have fought Jones years ago and is now facing him when he is clearly past it

    what does that tell you:deal

    If he has then I don't like Joe's chances!!!

    At least it sounds like Joe knows what he has to do. Jump on him, punches in bunches, make a difference in the last half of the fight etc

    It would be party time in the General Forum; I wouldn't touch that place for about a month after if Calzaghe were to lose.

    Why are there Brits on here who are rooting for an American over a British fighter? :huh

    If Calzaghe wins doesn't that enhance the reputation of British boxing even further worldwide? Americans have always looked down upon British boxing and for Calzaghe to probably retire a 2 weight world champion with a 46-0 record would be an outstanding achievement.

    Get behind the Brits!

    i hope Roy whoops Joes ass!!!

    Calzaghe is on the down too, and his pitter patter punches aint gonna do jack unless he sits down on them. If he fights like he did against Bernard hes sure to lose.
