    People said lacy was going to **** joe, but in the cold light of day no one admits it now :lol:

    Kessler was going to beat joe, but no one said it now :think

    Jones was going to pull out one great performance up to a few hours ago now he is shot to **** :rofl

    Hopkins was going to beat joe :patsch

    Bull****, Calzaghe his self admitted that the fight was pointless at that point considering the huge risk with little reward. Let's face it, at that point what has Calzaghe exactly accomplished to be ducked by RJJ?. Calzaghe claimed he wanted more money, wanted the fight to take place in Wales and had a hand injury he wanted RJJ to wait for and RJJ sure as hell wasn't going to agree to all of that.

    If you think RJJ would have lost to Calzaghe prime for prime then I'd rather not discuss with you as it's a waste of time because I have spoken to the biggest Calzaghe supporters and NONE have even said that Calzaghe stands a chance. It's enough to say an old RJJ was actually giving him a decent fight and this is a Jones who has been shot since 2003 whether you want to accept it or not.

    Also, Jones ducked Tiger? :lol:, yeah, when there's no one to mention let's pick ANYONE!, he didn't duck Hopkins and Toney yet he ducked Tiger. Sure thing man. :rofl
     
  3. He He np Imperial we've all made bad picks & not lying about it makes you a better man :smooch
     
  4. The people that picked Jones to win were either ignorant or drunk:-( or love living in denial, Calzaghe won easily, and threw about 300 more punches during the fight, Roy never had a chance..:-(
    People just hate on Cali because their jealous of his success and he's 46-0:good

    There's no hate in any of my posts, it's just the ones claiming RJJ is not shot need reality checks.

    to all the people saying RJJ is shot..... why were most of you picking a shot fighter before the fight?

    RJJ said he felt better than he has in a long time..... much better than he was against Tarver and Johnson when he was weak due to his rapid weight loss.

    RJJ was not the RJJ of the 90s.... but most of you biased wankers should not have picked him to beat Calzaghe if you thought he was shot. I'm happy that Calzaghe humiliated the RJJ in front of the Americans. Although I respect RJJ for showing great heart and fighting till the end through adversity

    People that picked Jones did so based on power hoping that he might be able to hurt Joe seriously since Hopkins dropped him, whoever thought Jones would completely outclass him don't know what the hell they're talking about. Above all, whoever claims Jones is not shot is an idiot, Jones has been shot since 2003 and even Joe mentioned that in an interview before the Hopkins fight. If you're unconvinced then Jones' fights in his prime are out there to watch, if you're still unconvinced then UFC is your friend.

    Most of the votes for Roy were just people showing respect to what he has done as a fighter, wishful thinking, not many people with any knowledge of the game actually thought he was going to win.

    That's a flat out lie. If you really read the posts, most were ROOTING for Jones, but thought Jones would probably LOSE due to the fact he is SHOT.
    Most Jones fans (me included) were hoping for some kind of a miracle for Roy to win, cause he is SHOT. The fight proved they were right.

    read the post that shows quotes from writers and fighters where a majority picked RJJ...... also most of the yanks on here picked RJJ.

    He got humiliated and deservedly so.

    Yep, take at the prediction on the front page. Calzaghe is a truly great fighter, no doubt about it.

    You're lying again. Calzaghe won ALL the polls that were made on ESB before the fight. ALL of them. So that means "Yanks" also thought Calzaghe would win, except if ESB has more british posters, which I doubt.

    And you're refering to boxing writers and fighters? Your post began with "to all those that picked Jones to win"... I thought you were addressing this forum's posters.
