    Calzaghe would even beat roy in his prime,
    Due to workrate and pressure.

    Nah, not 100%
    Calzaghe is hard to hit so roy wanted to be precise with as many punches as possible or he would get tired quickly.
    That is why roy did not throw many,
    Man calzaghe dominated his ass.

    Calzaghe is NOT hard to hit, at all.

    I suggest that anyone who thinks they saw the real Roy Jones in the ring saturday to do a little homework and watch some vintage Jones.

    If you're new to this sport and only been following it for 4 or 5 years don't talk about Roy Jones like you now what he's all about. You just sound like a complete idiot.

    as a fan of both... this was a good fight. of course everyone now says it was a mismatch. the trueth is Roy beat joe to the punch everytime. His speed gave jc problems. he just didnt/couldnt throw enough... aka washed up. however, i think JC is past his prime and not much younger than RJJ. i would not have been suprised if RJJ ko'ed joe with one of his straight rights that night. that was his plan... he knew he couldnt win on points. both greats should hang em up.

    He was not as shot as some people would like to think. He was in better shape than at any other time since Ruiz. The speed was there, the precision was there but the legs and heart were missing.

    80percent

    trinidad was 100percent, but Roy still atleast had speed and a little bit of power...

    90% shot if you compare to the normal Jones, before he met Tarver! I don't think that Calzaghe is a Hall of fame boxer!

    He was shot to ****. Prime Roy Jones murders that corpse, pisses on it, and lets it on fire.
