    I have said it before, that this fight is ALOT harder for Joe than if he was fighting Pavlik
    Joe takes care of pav and easily wins wide on points.
    Jones tho is gonna be alot trickier to beat.

      I dunno, his speed will be a big part of it. His right hand will land a lot, but Joe has a good chin and recovers well. So I doubt it.

        Pavlik is an uncomplicated wrecking ball.

        Roy Jones' farts have more natural boxing talent than Pavlik

          Something you guys need to understand...ANYBODY can KO ANYBODY...all they have to do is land the right punch, or combination, at the right time. Jones has been doing this for years. He's not an especially powerful puncher, but his hands are (even now) lightning fast, and he's been catching guys off guard and putting them down his entire career...as anyone knows, even a mild punch you didn't see coming is much worse than a freight train you saw from a mile away.

          Having said all that, I'm of the opinion that Calzaghe probably will catch some good combinations from Roy, get in trouble, and maybe get put on his shorts once, or even more...but he's got a great chin, recovers quickly, and I don't see Roy being able to even come close to finishing him.
