Joe Calzaghe Says Roy Jones Probably "My Last Fight"

[abadger]

No, If for example Ali retired with his 0 without facing Big George, Norton or Joe Frazier would he be well respected?? Don't think so. So it isn't a great luxury to have Calzaghe's 0. KEYWORD: Calzaghe's 0...No offense. He will forever be questioned and I don't know who is to blame. It was Calzaghe's time to shine with fighters like James Toney, Tarver, Young B-Hop & RJJ, Kelly Pavlik, Johnson, Chad, Jermain Taylor and alot more. I know your a Calzaghe fan and I'm not but it hurts ME to say KEYWORD: ME to say that the fighters I mentioned faced eachother and Calzaghe wasn't a part of that. In all honesty, Calzaghe isn't gonna retire...at one point, he'll know that it is important to face off against Chad, Pavlik and maybe AA. This will do good for his legacy win or lose. Remember I said win or lose becuz atleast he faced em. That right there will change the way I feel about Calzaghe

You do exaggerate somewhat over what Calzaghe still has left to prove. In reality how is beating AA, Dawson or even Pavlik at this stage that much different than beating Lacy and Kessler? Young prime champs, he's been there and done that in his own division, its only afterwards they somehow don't count. He also beat most of the guys who held belts at SMW earlier in his career, but they're all forgotten now.

He's getting $40 M for the Jones fight.

I'd like to see him fight Pavlik but whatever. Maybe he feels he is in decline and doesn't want to risk it? It's cool with me.

[Truth]

I think Jones/Calzaghe is going to be great. I think its a reasonably fair fight. Its not like Joe is 25. Its two greats in their late thirties. And I think they have the styles to bring out the best in each other.

Dawson is fighting Glen Johnson and Antonio Tarver back to back. Who the hell have Kessler and Lacy beaten?

That’s a load of crap. $40 MIL, Oscar got 50 Million and Mayweather 35 million. This fight will do very well in PPV but not that big.

Mundine, YA MUST HAVE FORGOT

Hagler went out and stayed out as well. What's Joe making for the RJJ fight?

Yeah but Hagler didn't go out as an excuse to duck his most slaptastic challenge...

SMW is a weak division. If Kessler is your best win claimed by some your career has been wasted

Hopkins' record at 36 is 39-2-1 with his main wins being Trinidad and Johnson. Past 36 he's gone 8-3, I think Calzaghe could easily achieve that but would he get much credit for it? I don't know... There's some idiots on here who still claim Calzaghe is in the peak of his career

I don't talk to you remember, your argumentative and hyperbolic style wearies me.
