    ehh not so much

      I think this is a very accurate indication of how the fight will play out.

              i voted for both on speed.

              jones has faster hands, not by much anymore but calzaghe has faster reactions.

                can we stop the bull**** about winning fights on workrate. how about whoever lands the better punches wins. not some gimmick who throws a bunch of punches that don't land. the hopkins-calzaghe fight set a bad precedent for boxing.

                  Speed: Calzaghe, faster Combo’s and footwork, Jones does throw single shots faster though
                  Power: Jones
                  Stamina: Joe by 100000 bagillion miles
                  Defense: Accendtly voted Zaghe, meant to choose Jr, just.
