    After early onslaughts from Joe, Roy Jones will be totally gassed by about round 4 or 5 on-wards, and look for solace on the ropes playing peek a boo. While he does Calzaghe racks up point scoring slaps like an arcade machine.

    Jones can't even counter off the ropes anymore, and his legs are as stiff as boards.

    **** it, I was hoping this fight would be towards the end of the month (Nov) because I would have a good chance of getting along to it.

    When do the tickets go on sale?

    Yea, I moan about the match up, but I will be tuning in, and I'm glad Setanta have got it.

    Hatton will be only on ppv with Sky from now on, he is a money grabbing *******.

    Don't be ridiculous, Hatton is one of the lads, he'd never make you shell out

    Had a look at the dates, my mates work schedule falls in ok with this, so I'm gonna try and organise some tickets for this.

    Never been to a fight over the pond, how much would I expect to pay for a ticket to this and where's the best place to get them?

    Does it help buying from American ticket offices due to exchange rate?
