    Calzaghe wants Taylor at that weight anyhow, why would Taylor pick Jones over Calzaghe? Less money, less entertaining.
    Jones is the easier opponent now. It doesn't look like Jones's body would get to 168 though.

      It would be a huge mistake for Jones to move down to super middle in my opinion. He should stay at light heavy and fight more regularly to get back in the groove. He must be going stale doing nothing and he's not getting any younger...

        id like to see him fight calzaghe as it would be champ vs champ. but still a jones fight would be very interesting, jones has more left than people think. i would actaully pick him to win the fight.

          Id agree with you. Id pick Jones over Taylor, even though I think Jones should hang up the gloves.

            Misses: What we're not really thrilled about is the talk from Taylor's camp about what he might do after the Mora fight: Pursue a fall bout against Roy Jones Jr. at 170 pounds.
            Just like Hopkins/Wright.

                You're unbelievable. Why do you even post here?

                  Roy has little to lose in trying I suppose..

                  His workrate is the biggest issue.

                  Can't win fights posing and potshotting.

                  Can't win fights allowing opponents to collapse on you.
