1) FACT Jones is a great fighter.
2) IMO he is shot
3) IMO at this point Calzaghe wins 9/10
4) FACT Jones never moved up from 154. He fought ams (same day weigh in) at 156, right? So the fact that he managed to boil to 154 twice at age 21-22 (sorry for the boxrec job) doesnt mean he WAS at 154.
I just hope Jones shows up with a vengeance and the fight is good.Comment

He doesn't have a glass jaw, he took some shots from Toney in the opening rounds, Griffin especially and one big right in the Ruiz fight in the 1st round. It's not a glass jaw but suspect now, I have a firm belief that the drop in weight had a fair deal to do with the KO's especially his movement/legsComment

Keep on preaching to the choir Reed. Why people dont see this, I dont know. Roy will whoop the **** out of CalSlappy.Comment

Very good post Reed, probably the best Roy one yet.
People who say Roy always protects himself and never fought anyone, never challenged himself, etc. are simply ignorant and know virtually nothing about Roy's career. It is as simple as that.Comment

The post-fight drug test showed Jones and Hall both tested positive for androstenedione in 2000 , which is a banned substance by the IBF. Androstenedione is a natural steroid hormone that was commonly available over the counter as a supplement until 2004 when the FDA made the over the counter sale of androstenedione illegal. Jones admitted to taking the product "ripped fuel" which was sold in GNC and every nutritional supplement outlet.Jones was able to keep his title and was not fined or suspended for the positive test.
He would've been suspended, but the amount that they said was in his body was not enough to warrant a suspension.Comment

add to the fact that the samples they tested were from 2000.. and THAT chemical didnt become illegal til 2004... hence it was LEGAL while it was in his systemThe post-fight drug test showed Jones and Hall both tested positive for androstenedione in 2000 , which is a banned substance by the IBF.
