    this may be the first time i root for RJJ. WAR RJJ !!! I hope he whips him down with one of those sick uppercuts he throws to the body when he's against the ropes. He ripped a few of those against Johnson and somehow Johnson took em and kept coming. I'm not so sure Sloppy Joe can. He's never faced anyone with RJJ's speed, and Joe's speed certainly won't be anything new to RJJ.

    If Roy beats Calzaghe it could be my finest boxing moment since Lennox Lewis revenged his Rahman loss and beat Tyson back-to-back.

    STILL NUMBER ONE AND IT'S GONNA BE THAT WAY.... BABY!

    :lol:

    I also liked this one... not sure if I have it right but it's close.

    I don't judge you by what you say, I judge you by what you do. And you do a lot of talking. Can you kick my ass? I doubt it.

    It is hard not to get excited about this fight. I am rooting for Jones as well. Good for these guys putting it together as well.

    I don't know I mean Joe just didn't look that good against Hopkins to me last fight. He punched a lot but I think Hopkins did the hurtin that fight. To me this means that Roy has a chance.

    Roy has to be in great shape and he has to have his speed together but yeah he might do it. I could see it happening.

    I could actually see Roy embarrassing the Welsh Jelly roll. In my mind Hopkins embarrased him.

    Even though I'm rooting for Roy, I give him about a 1/5 chance of winning the fight. Highly doubtful.

    Don't give up on Roy just yet. He's got a surprise coming...

    Joe can only hope to outwork Roy. I see Roy doing a lot of covering on the ropes then Joe explodes with meaningless punches.

    I give Roy a decent shot simply because his handspeed is still there. His legs are shit, but his hands are still fast. Hopkins walked Joe right into that right hand in the first round but didn't have the reflexes to pull the trigger thereafter. Roy will.

    Jones taking Joe out with one shot is pretty much his only hope in this and I give him a GREAT chance at doing it whether it's a bodyshot or hook up top.

    based on?

    how many one punch KO's has Roy had in the last 10 years?

    When was the last time he scored a KO victory at all?

    When was the last time he fought anyone near Calzaghe's level?


    Roy fans are smoking some serious crack on this one, at this stage he might win this fight 1 out of 50 times.

    Do note I said that was his only shot.

    How many one punch KO's had Glen Johnson had before clipping Roy?

    ' Nuff said.
