Knockdown, maybe. But far too people on this forum don't give enough credit for Joe's beard, which is superb. Even in his pomp RJJ would never KO Calzaghe, because I don't think anybody could.
This is a no win fight for Calzaghe. If Joe loses then he is going to be called a fraud and ****....etc. If Joe wins then people will just say Jones is past it (which he is) and plus if Joe doesnt stop him or struggles with him then people will compare his fight to Jones's previous loses in Tarver and Johnson. In my eyes Joe should have fought Pavlik i honestly believe that he would defeat Kelly, in a close but clear decision victory. I think Joewill beat Jones but i dont think he is going to look good doing it.
great comments all around - i'd say yeah jones a wee bit past his prime and has not showed his old skills in any situation really for quite some time. joe is still sharp, bhop was a messy affair but was expected to be. jones has power though, but joe's got chin too. joe will look extremely fast in the ring.
Jones couldn't knock out a blown up welter last time out, or prince boogiedo of Brockswich the time before. Calzaghe has a very good chin, one of the best in the game. Knocking Joe out is Jones only hope, but I can't see it.
All true. Except for the obvious monetary reasons this is a no win situation for Calzaghe. Jones is shot and he should be a huge favorite in there.
Calzaghe couldn't dominate a 43 year old Hopkins and he lost in my opinion and Roy is 4 years younger and faster than Hopkins my prediction UD for Jones. Hopkins just in my opinion exposed alot of flaws by Calzaghe and Jones will capitalize on that this why he didn't want to fight Pavilk.
Yeah, but the odds of that are infinitely higher than him just scoring a knockdown, or the most likely scenario, nothing at all.
I think Jones is going to try and knock him out in the first 2 rounds.....it might be his best chance to win the fight....
Rubbish. Even if RJJ is tip top, being better does not automatically mean being Ko'd. This fight is going the full 12. Anyone who thinks otherwise is talking out of their rear end.
