Roy Jones vs. Joe Calzaghe: Is Joe's Injury The Real Deal?

[MWMerlino]

More amateur journalism from Mark Vester.

Sorry Pump, but the discrepancy about whether it was the pads or a heavybag doesn't suggest Calzaghe is faking it.

Neither does the article.

Though I don't like the idea of the fight being held overseas.

I don't think it's whether or not he is hurt, but whether or not Warren's lawsuit halting the fight made them step back and the injury was sold as an excuse. Almost nobody believes the injury story in the UK. They all think it's the lawsuit filed by Warren.

Ok then . . . .

I don't know what Vester was getting at; the Warren issue is introduced in the last sentence as an afterthought.

Roy should have to travel for this one; Joe has earned that. But this is a different issue.

What exactly does the Hopkins fight have to do with Joe neglecting his hands during training?

joke-cal-slappy thats what....now we know y he slaps...he's brittle, lol

I am going to have to caution you against improper use of the ellipsis...

"Ok then" only takes seven spaces, and you need ten to post.

Well he introduced the idea that there were two different versions of the story by pointing out that it was Joe's attorney passing along the information, which transitioned into Frank Warren's lawsuit.

Plus, what has Joe earned to have the fight held at home, all the guy has ever done is fight at home. More like he earned the right to fight in Las Vegas and New York.

Wales is the new Vegas.

What has Joe done? He's the champ, the favorite, and the draw. Five years ago Roy would've called the shots. Now Joe does.

I thought Joe said he wanted to fight in the US again after his "great experience" in Vegas against bhop?
