    Every fighter ages different from others rjj style relied heavly on reflexes and speed two things that decrease with age moreso than basic boxing skills (hopkins calzaghe), so ofcourse a fighter that is declining in both is going to be a shell of his former self (at the same time im not denying rjj never had boxing skills). Everybody isnt a hopkins, even morales got shot fast (because of all the wars). But I will take this with a grain of salt its moreso of calzaghe trying to get the fight with rjj win and ride into the sunset.

    i don't like this fight myself,it does absolutely nothing for me.however when calzaghe beat eubank to win the wbo belt jones was already fighting at light heavyweight,and starting to clean out that division eventually moving up to heavy to beat ruiz.in fairness i don't think a relatively unknown calzaghe was ever really on jones' radar.

    Jones isnt shot, hes 39, there is a difference. If he was shot, he would have been smoked by Prince Badi or Trinidad or Hanshaw.

    I'm glad Joe is speaking like this...
    What's gonna be his excuse when Jones Jr. beats him down?
    Jr. still has more than enough speed & pop to make Calzaghe look slow.
    (Even @ this stage, We are talking about a supurb conditioned athlete with no bad habbit's)

    Calzaghe is setting himself up, someone should tell him to button his lip.
    (But like they say, Like father like son)

    you guys worry to much about what the boxers say. They all the same ****. boxing is a business first then fighting. fighters fight.
