i think joe has the power to Ko him and i think he will roy is only effective vs low volume punchers because he likes to A. hook off the jab and B. Lead with right hands... I love roy he has always been my fav fighter but Joe will not wait on him and if glen can do it JOE can...roy would need one thing to beat joe LEGS!!!!! and he doesn't have them anymore ... joe by KO....
TKO there is a chance. KO no chance these days JC couldnt knock the froth off my coffee. This fight is a worry for me i want to see what JC has left in the tank and how he prepares for it in his head, on they last 4 showings JC should win easy but he is fighting RJJ and there could be 1 more fight left in RJJ's tank
Same thing was said before the Glen Johnson fight. If Joe gets to land clean and a lot he has a chance to score a KO and knowing how shot Roy is he will run out of gas after the 5th. Joe Calzaghe wouldn't have signed to fight Roy if he was even 10% of what he once was, fact that he's 0% of what he once was is the reason this fight is signed and on.
his tank is on E Roy can't beat a LIVE body anymore because his legs are gone it's odd i sware age is a mother ****er reminds me of jordan when he was with the wizards you can see his mind was young but the body couldn't do what the mind wanted
If Joe Calzaghe fought Roy Jones Jr 10 years ago then Jones would have knocked him out, Jones is now pass his best he is no longer the Pound for Pound Champion he once was. I like Joe but if he fought a Prime RJJ he would be outclassed, made a fool of then get stopped.
Roy Jones is shot but he's versatile as always, it's not like he only knows how to hook off the jab and shoot lead right hands. Very serious mistake would be Calzaghe trying to break Jones with pressure only. No, no, no, he needs to find those angles and that pace where he can connect more often than not b'cause let's face it, Joe Calzaghe will never beat Roy Jones to the punch... He will play into Jones hands if he comes at will. Calzaghe should win if he can find RJJ's body and head with his high output though. I do agree Jones doesn't have the legs to control the distance.
Roy's hand speed is still good when he throws punches... but I agree, his legs can't handle it... Calzaghe moved Hopkins all over the ring, I don't think Roy can handle that for more than a few rounds... I would not rule out a TKO at all.
Johnson is pretty heavy handed though with an iron chin. Calzaghe hands are just wankered and his chin, while very good, isn't iron.
i agree that distance is what makes roy jones who is his the distance he makes and the space he can cover with his reflexes i thought roy looked like **** vs trinidad i hear its because he had a Tore bicep which u could see in the fight... but i just didn't see the legs i needed to see for him to fight at such a high level i may change my pick when it alk to people but for now... ill keep it
i agree 100% joe just cares about money see i can respect Pavlik he wants to be the 1st man to KO hopkins... Joe cal is fighting for cash...
yup no WAY in hell roy opens up to counter if he is on the ropes taking punches from a south paw who throws all those shots
an early ko win for calzaghe is probably the LEAST probable outcome.. although jones is old now...and seemingly washed up a bit...lets not forget calzaghe i old too...and roy jones has that one-off style that joe won't have boxed against before... i dunno who will win...i couldnt pick with any confidence either way... but i wouldnt be one bit surprised if roy jones gets the win...based on style and calzaghe getting older too, then its definelty a possibility.. .
