    Most defnitely. The only Risk factor is that he may run into a wicked "Slap." I Expect Roy to go to the body effectively in this fight.

      Whatever Jones decides to do, I'm sure he'll execute the right gameplan to beat that motherflucker..

      Jones wins a UD12

          Calzaghe is very effective at not getting hit to the body because of his footwork and the angles he gives, his high workrate also keeps his opponents on the defensive so that even if they punch, they'll punch to the head because punching the body means dropping your hands and that could lead to a fighter getting hit by 4 of Calzaghe's shots to 1 body shot but if Jones can get to the body early and effectively, sure he'll slow Calzaghe down, body shots slow everyone down.

            Agree, but I think Jones speed will cause Joe to think before "punching" which will slow him down. The body shots will hurt though......a body shot followed by a tripple left hook.

            It'll be ET style "OOOOOUUUUUUCCCCCHHHHHHH"

              It could but Jones would have to get his respect with that speed early, a fighter needs to get Calzaghe's respect to get him cautious.

                I dont think Jones will have a problem with that.....

                I think his speed will be key!

                  Will Calzaghe's windmill (more like propeller) slaps slow Jones down? Going to the body early is always a good strategy but Roy should also focus on not allowing Joe to outwork/outpoint him with those slaps like Bernard did and that's always a tall order for anyone way past their physical prime, particularly for fighters with styles that rely on twitch reflexes.
