    If Jones wins, No matter WHO is the 3rd man in the ring, the Joe Calzaghe fans will complain about the ref. You will have guys like this no matter what the outcome is, THE REF was the reason... unless of course there fighter wins and in that case its the best ref of all time.... this guy clearly knows nothing of boxing...and is bitter that Hatton was KTFO and Calzaghe is about to face his worst fear (HIS IDOL)

      Wasnt even born in the 80s mate!

      Am relatively new to boxing like, wasnt a true fan until 2006, but now i love the sport and cant wait to see upcoming prospects like Kevin Mitchell (Legend), etc and see how the divisions pan out over the next few years... although im gutted that boxing greats such as Calzaghe and Hatton and even Mayweather will be leaving the boxing scene..
      I'm going to go ahead and make you the first person on my ignore list.

            usually i dont care about the ref, its just Joe Cortez is a twat who cant referee

            And i doubt that Joe fighting Roy is his worst nightmare mate, hell be relishing the oportunity to prove that hes the better boxer, and to give all his fans (someting that american fighters dont seem to have much of) a great show!

                Can I ask a question Dan? Have you seen any of Roy's past fights and if so, which ones?

                  Cortez wasn't great for Calzaghe Hopkins, he didn't allow Hatton to hold at all, yet Hops was aloud to all night, and take time off. Very few moaned about it when they could have. So don't generalise that all fans would use the ref as an excuse if Joe lost, that's just insulting dude come on.

                  If you have Carl Froch, Kevin Mitchell, and Amir Khan in you p4p, then you either don't understand that p4p is for fighters from the entire world not just your country, or your just way biased, or both. Not a good route to being taken seriously with that in your sig dude. Just a tip but I'd change the word "p4p" to "favourites".

                    I found the entire paragraph pretty funny. Mostly because it made me realise that it was his p4p list and not just his faves. I am banking he doesn't know the meaning of p4p.

                      lol dude can watch any HIGHLIGHT youtube video of Roy Jones Jr and he would see a "great show". I dont think he knows anything about Roy Jones Jr other than he was KO'ed or maybe he doesn't even know that. He just knows its a guy that's fighting his hero, so he must talk BS... but like he said he is young and NEW to boxing and he clearly knows nothing about boxing...
