    Hahahaha...this is a laughable question! Calzaghe lacks BALANCE, lacks the ability to throw consistent STRAIGHT POWER PUNCHES, and he has NEVER BEATEN ANYONE.

    Calzaghe only fights on home turf. He only fights champions who have also NEVER BEATEN ANYONE. He is cocky and thinks he cannot be hurt. Against RJJ, he'd get whooped. If he made it through the fight, he'd win 1 or 2 rounds (if he was lucky). My prediction, Jones would corner him, and unleash a 35 punch combo stopping him somewhere around the 9th.

    Don't compare Calzaghe with Jones. Let Calzaghe fight Hopkins, then watch an old man beat him down.

    RJJ TKOs Calzaghe late, while its very tight on the scorecards. I believe RJJ hit harder and faster than Kessler, Joe wouldnt backdown and would make a very good fight of it but in the end get TKO'd.

    Let's see how Jeff lacy, Mikkel Kessler and the rest of JC's beaten opponents fare in the future.

    For now, as expect people would easily dismiss Calzaghe's chances against RJ.

    RJJ holds W's over a PRIME BHop, a PRIME James Toney, a victory (while in obvious decline) over a pretty good Tarver, and beat a HW titleholder.

    As good as JC MIGHT be, he can't claim these types of achievements, and never will. It's hard to take him over a PRIME Jones.

    Joe would soon enough catch Roy...late TKO...REAL late TKO
    But he could likely be behind in rounds, sat 7-4 b4 TKO 12th

    haha still hating Jose. Without steroids Calzaghe would whip Jones worse than Tarver and Glen Johnson combined.

    You lost the avatar bet aswell, so get and change it like everyone else has done chump.

    I think it would be similar to Kessler-Calzaghe in a way. Not similar in terms of styles. But simlar in terms of it being a very good competitive bout against two very good fighters with Roy winning with similar cards as Calzaghe did against Kessler (9-3, 8-4 twice)

    I agree with most of u, Jones is much faster and stronger. Jones late TKO or win by wide UD :yep

    A prime Calzaghe was faster than Jones. One of the reasons why these "super duper" Yankee fighters dodged Calzaghe.
