        Yeah, it is certainly a strange one. I am more pissed that he took that chick of his avatar though.

            roy is done, face it, i actually like roy but i can accept the fact he is finished,
            OK but the fact is you werent talking about that at all. The conversation was about Bhop and Roy fighting then out of nowhere you drop "eh no Antonio......" like that was part of the conversation. The conversation was about Bhop not Tarver. It was very strange the way you pulled Tarver out of nowhere.

            Sure maybe he beats Roy again if they fight, maybe not. I could care less about Roy. It just bothered me how irrelevant your addition to the thread was. Its obvious that you love Tarver and were putting a diss on Roy by bringing Tarvers name in on it. I could tell by your name and avatar, and gif why you did it though.

              You know what your right ill admit it. Tarver does a few decent wins. Nothing great besides the Roy KO though. Im not trying to hate.

              I think I was more disturbed at this guy coming in with a gif of tarvers ko of Roy and spouting off about how Tarver would destroy Roy if they fought again like it had anything to do with the conversation.

              **** we can take talk about it, sure, but dont act like it was part of the conversation is all.

                Well, for the most part this was an embarassing and hate filled thread. Some of you should be ashamed to even call yourselves boxing fans. I have finally realised that the average level of knowledge on these boards is absolutely awful. Many here genuinely don't know the first thing about Calzaghe beyond the B-Hop fight and cannot overcome the Euro = Fraud trope they have embedded in their head, even though Calzaghe keeps on winning. Oh well.

                As for Calzaghe saying the fight will be harder, I find that difficult to imagine. I suppose you might say that Roy carries more actual attacking threat than Hopkins did, because he is a faster, more fluid puncher and because B-Hop did little or after the opening rounds. Problem is Roy will probably gas quicker than B-Hop did, and is definitely more vulnerable himself. Its not impossible that Jones might give him a decent fight, Calzaghe is older now than Jones was the first time he lost, but really I think Calzaghe is just talking up the fight.

                  i agree. i think roy was great prime, and is still good, but far from the prime roy. i also feel while roy will have his moments, but his style allows joe to be joe much more than he was against bhop. bhop will have been a tougher fight than roy. after 5 or 6 rounds joe will take over, and win a comfortable ud.

                    look as i have said roy would not beat any good light heavyweight out there, thats where tarver comes in, thats where glen johnson comes in thats where any light heavyweight comes in.

                    the line i used was something like "ehhhh no" and that was about roy beating hopkins, tarver came in to the next sentence,

                    i have no problem with roy but he is shot,
