    Roy Jones jr wants Samuel Peter after he's done with Calzaghe

    As above, he wants to challenge Samuel Peter for the WBC Heavyweight Title!!!! **** yeah! He could actually do that! He'd be far too fast, he just needs to avoid Peter's bombs. If toney can hang in there, so can Jones!!!!

    Dunno if it'll ever happen but I actually believe he could do this!

    Source??? His interview on boxing talk!

    I think Roy must know he's going to lose to Calzaghe so this will never be an issue. There is no way Jones wants to get in the ring with Sam Peter!

      Samuel Peter will be able to barbecue and chew on whatever Calzaghe leaves of Roy Jones Junior.

            Someone with a poor chin and diminished speed shouldn't want to get hit by Sam Peter. Hopefully he'll take his UD loss from Calzaghe and learn some humility

              Well, Roy's defense/chin isn't as good as the Toney that I thought beat Peter in the first fight, and I'm not sure Roy could match a 233 lb Toney's power that didn't seem able to phase Peter in that fight too much.

              Could be worse, he could be contemplating Klitschko. At least Roy has a miniscule chance of out boxing the slow, clubbing Peter.

                everyone knows that you can forget the two losses to nobody tarver
                and johnson. that was more due to jones moving down in weight
                just like chris byrd getting knocked out by shaun george, a relative
                nobody. roy jones is back ... roy jones is the best p4p of our era
                he fears no man.

                    Nobody Tarver? How in the heck can you forget the loses to Tarver and arguably the first fight also along with Glen John when in two out of the five he was KTFO?? Get outta here. So if "weight" (sighing) is still the excuse for Roy in the second fight(which was a year and 3 months after the Ruiz fight mind you), what is the excuse in the 3rd?? Was he weight drained here??

                    [IMG]http://i215.***********.com/albums/cc292/marzblkman/RJJ.gif[/IMG]

                    The fight he was being a damn cheerleader in. I just dont' get the discreding of Tarver. Tarver poses a style problem for Roy in that he's a rangy counter-puncher with power. That said, Roy is no push-over and I can't beleive there are people here that think Calazaghe is just going to starch Jones.

                    The only reason I see he was given the decision against Hopkins is that he out PITTY PATTED him. If Roy comes in like he looked against Trinidad where his speed was still there, Calazaghe better look out.

                    As far as Roy against Sam Peter, I dont' see what he needs to really be worried about there. A fat ass James Toney in the first fight pretty much beat him. While someone mentioned (and I agree) that Roy's defense isn't as good as Toney's, I could clearly see Roy outboxing Peter. ***, had Jameel McCline had more energy he was on the way to doing that.
