What if rj pulls a great win over joe, who should he fight next and where is he placed in history??:439:
IF he pulls off this upset (and I have to admit that there is a small chance for it), he should take the money and run, so to speak, and retire immediately. He's 39 years old, and nothing good will come of him fighting again at 40, or older.
Unfortunately, while I do believe there is a small chance for an upset here, I just don't think it will happen. I'd like to see both of these guys win....Calzaghe because I'd like to see him retire undefeated, and Jones because I'd like to see him become a superstar a second time around, but I can only see this fight out one way, after seeing Jones' last few fights.
I'm sure this sounds like a joke, but the only way I'd give Jones more than a passing chance (better than about 1 in 15 that I give him now) is if I were his trainer for this fight, and even then I couldn't give him more than a 1 in 3 shot, at best.
Of course if it's a draw, I'll be forced to execute all three judges in bloody fashion.
Samuel Peter at HW and win another HW Title, MAYBE
:nonono: peter could hurt him...... no more heavies for roy.
that time has passed. i think he could've beat a past-prime holy , byrd and shot tyson for big money a few years ago......but that was long ago.
He'll regain some of his lost shine and solidy his spot in history if he wins. I think this is probably the last big fight he's got in him tho, so if he takes the LHW title back I wanna see him retire on top.
ditto , mang.
None of you can honestly say you know how Jones will fight. He is the big joker. If he is as good as he were, this will be the thoughest fight for Joe, but it will also be the thoughest fight for Jones. Both fighters need to be 100 % prepared, and I think they will be. I expect fireworks.
If Jones beat Calzaghe... I'll mos def be laughing my ass off drunk!! Reason be, Calzaghe made this fight happen because Jones is washed up, so he knew he has a win. Truth of the matter is, Jones is washed up and Calzaghe should beat him. But I really do hope Jones beats him, to show how much of a clown Calzaghe and his camp is.
I wouldnt mind seeing Roy fight Tony Margarito, Winky Wright, Pavlik and of course Hopkins, Dawson would be good and a revenge fight with either Johnson or Tarver would be a draw.. Thats if he wins otherwise he shoudl retire

I agree! He would've come back and won "his" title! Retire on top!
If Roy Jones does in fact beat Joe Calzaghe then i think in a sense (especially since joe hasnt had too many fights against the top fighters from the U.S.) that it will ruin his legacy because many will pawn him off as a GOOD but not GREAT super middleweight.
If Roy Jones beats Calzaghe it proves he still has plenty left to fight on.
I think a fight with pavlik would definately not be out of the question.

One last fight with Hopkins then they both retire.
