    *Ignore the typo, sorry :(*

    Steve Bounce just said Calzaghe was 6 pounds overweight as of yesterday afternoon and said he was concerned as was those close to Joe. Joe should really only be 1/2 pounds away at this stage he stated.

    Jones is 1 pound overweight presently.

    Thoughts?

    I have no doubt Joe is in excellent shape, he will make weight no problem

    Dont think it'l be an issue at all, but Roy needs all the help he can get imo.

    Not a good sign and Jo looks a bit edgy - however, I think it will bring the best out of Calzaghe and he'll win tomorrow.

    Exactly as I predicted. Calzaghe does not take this opponent or this fight seriously - because Jones has been shot to pieces for a long time. I wish his fans weren't so naive as to believe this was ever really a legitimate contest in the eyes of the Calzaghes. It was big money - easiest possible option, hence he hasn't trained properly and will still win easily.

    It was on Setanta News in the U.K. Steve Bunce thought Joe didn't look right when they did an interview yesterday afternoon, he made some phonecalls and found out that Joe was 6lbs overweight...apparently

    He is saying that to hype the fight up, When the official weigh in is on it will be proof calzaghe is on the weight.

    He might be on the weight but he might also be weight drained too remember.
