    but that wasn't a one-punch KO.

    He won almost every round and KO'd Roy.

    There is 0 chance Roy will be winning this fight, if he lands some miracle.

    Even still, i think Calzaghe has proven to have very good punch resistance throughout his career. he has been down but never close to out - always came back hard, and never showed anything less than an excellent chin (find me a handful of fighters who wouldn't have been ko'd straight up after that shot Kabary Salem landed right on the chin)

    isnt it a consensus amongst most that jones was done by the time he got to johnson? not the case with calzaghe, imo.

    btw Musze do you only post if RJJ is involved in the topic? that's kind of sad

    Exactly.

    That's why it's hard to give Jones a chance. :lol:

    I'm pretty sure if I wasn't a Roy fan, I'd be screaming on Calzaghe for fleecing the public with this mismatch. And essentially, that's what this is.

    But I am a Roy fan so I'm excited about this match. That said, I stand by belief that it is more of a competitive fight than some of you choose to see. Maybe I see that because I'm a fan. But I don't think so. I just think Calzaghe is the only top fighter at 175 I'd tab Roy to beat..and I'm picking him to do so in what may seem like a surprise but really shouldn't have been. Hopefully he retires after that.

    calzaghe is wise to fight the corpse of jones jr. if he were to truly challenge himself by facing a young hungry, rough and tumble bloke like hard hittin' henry he'd be in serious peril.

    team calzaghe knows what the deal is, they saw hard hittin' get absolutely robbed in hungary and I'm sure they were watching tonight as hard hittin' turned formidible foe williams lip into a snatch.

    Chris Henry? Did you see him tonight?

    He's not as good as Jeff Lacy.

    (I assume you're joking)

    I'm really looking for the RJJ and Samuel Peter fight after Roy takes care of Cal. After this he can retire and assume his hard earned spot in history without lingering questions..

    It looked like the ref was against Henry in this fight. He'd land a bodyshot or 2 and the ref would warn him.
    I wouldn't mind seeing Lacy and Henry, that would be a war

    Ignoring knowledge and indulging in echolocation.
    :boohoo: "Prime Hops"... is about as full of shit as "prime Tyson" , it chops and changes to suit conveniences,.. I'd have liked to have seen the natural Lightheavyweight, actually fight there for a career, and then he would have been a recycled bitch for Roy the way ...uh?...Rock Allen was for Hopkins shitty resume.. Instead of the usual beat up on smaller fighters, Hopkins beat up on fighters EXTRA SMALL to get recognition,..I guess the much loved 'Hops' just wasn't trying hard enough up until then.

    Hops is and forever will be, Roy's bitch, Joe's bitch, and especially Jermaine's bitch,...Jermaine beat the prime Hopkins who turned old who turned prime for Tarver and Winky who turned old again for Joe. He was Green for Roy, Green for Mercado, Green for Mitchell ofcourse.... awww aww awww .. we talkin' bout Hops who beat Antwun Echols!!!!, now dats da best middlweight eva. :boohoo:

    there is a real real chance that Roy wins this fight..

    Crapzaga is a slapping hoe and does not have the power of tarver with one shot..

    also.. crapzaga was dropped by Hopkins like he was a two bit call girl

    Hopkins put the weak slapper on his ass and still couldn't come close to winning the fight. The weak slapper made him fight defensive the whole fight. Those weak slaps must hurt.

    Does this mean we're on for ANOTHER $100???

    I'm tired of taking your money BUT I'll make an exception here.

    Jesus H. Christ, Calzaghe is going to KILL this washed up asshole. :fightme:

    If you had any money and weren't such a bullshit artist, I'd empty your bank account too.

    Calzaghe is going to kick the living shit out of Jones. Anyone who thinks it'll be remotely close is fooling themselves. :laughing::laughing:

    regardless of what chances Jones has on this fight it will definately be a better fight than Calzaghe/Hopkins.

    Nope. I said I hope Jones can win. I also thought Bernard did the hurtin in the last fight.

    I will take the bet but I want odds on this one. You know from past experience I have at times offered you odds.... So I am not being a hypercrite.

    The way judges score fights now a days is criminal. All Crappy has to do is slap away and be able to take a real shot or two from Jones.
