Roy Jones Jr: "I Will Beat Joe Calzaghe in New York"

[MakeDamnSure]

Joe Calzaghe's waiting for more than a decade has finally paid off..

Hopkins then Jones Jr.

Yea its kind of funny because BOTH Jones and HOP have proved themselves already... Joe is just now trying too... and hes trying by waiting a decade... hey good on the undefeated "protected champ"... I give him all the credit he deserves and that is ****....

[THE REED]

It's sad that Jones is still fighting today. He should have just went out on top after the first Tarver fight. He had nothing to prove really in the rematch, the money was just good and now he's stuck having to prove himself when he doesn't have to.

I'm positive Jones never saw this happening to him when he was younger.

i dont think any of the great champions in the past, saw this happening to themselves either...

true champions cant just walk away... thats my belief anyway

i wasn't talking about that fight 15 years ago......i've heard hopkins mention that that was the one fight he knew he lost.............


i was talking about the fights in recent memory that hopkins "lost."

Well, maybe you should have said that then.

[Chase8400]

To be fair, Joe is 6'1.

I think I'll got with rather than your expert opinion.

[Chase8400]

Jones chin weakness was a product of weight loss and thats it. As for the fight itself watch 4 Jones to really make Joe commit and then counter. I still think Joe is the favorite but dont count RJJ out he might put that first L on Joes record. Peace

Exactly, take Chris Byrd for example. He was knocked silly by a LHW when he was taking serious heavyweight blows from the Klitschko's a few years earlier. Jones is over that "Lucky Lick" stuff and will show it against Calzaghe. After he wins, he needs to avenge the KO loss to Johnson and fight the winner of Tarver-Dawson and call it a day. That is a "GOAT" move in my opinion.

Please Roy, go KO Johnson after Joe. Nobody will let you live your career losses down until you do. (Other than me, of course)

Joes fans- Full of ****

Hello. Am I full of ****?

I like Joe, but like Jones more.

Just messin with ya...

nope haven't seen it and I don't see the ACTING coming from HOP... He had the SAME expression when he first lost to JT.... There was NO acting... When the bell for the end of the 12th round rang, Hopkins laughed and knew he was not beat... For an old man to laugh at you that also didnt even look like he was sweating.... is just sad... SORRY, if the sport of boxing has come to a guy that slaps 12 rounds every fight just to barely pull of a win and say he's the best ever is just sad... YOU HAVE TO BEAT THE CHAMP and the way JOEY was talking is that he was going to BEAT him.. I'm sorry but 43 year old Grandpa HOP DIDN'T look beaten to me... especially when laughing at the end.... as for HOP its not like he did much either but he landed HARD shots and put Joe on the canvas, something JOE didnt/couldnt do and I think HOP won or at worse was a tie..... and if HOP was to ever become an ACTOR, that movie would surely BOMB.....

Personally, I can't stand Joe, he is BAD for the sport. Light touches and "glove wind" (see manfredo) should not win fights. However, they do and Joe has mastered playing that game. Hopkins was so gassed and desparate with those BS low blows he knew he was losing. Hokins got old. He is still a master of his craft, but he lost.

[Reggie Miller]

Err, excuse me, he KO'ed the great Peter Manfredo Jr!!!


Just playing! I think Joe by decision, possible late TKO depending on Roy's stamina

yes, that was a great ko.
