Will Roy Jones Body Punchin Slow Joe Down

[pesticid]

Zaghe toys with Roy early and takes him on a rollercoaster ride late in the fight, possibly stopping the old and slowed down Roy.

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.

....That is a given

....That is a given

No, it isn't. Jones' main body punch against a southpaw is a right hook, I don't think he'd be able to get to Calzaghe with that in close because Jones throws that shot from a distance.

[MANGLER]

If he remembers to do it then yea.

Something everybody might want to consider....Calzaghe's stated that this is his last fight, period. If that's true, and I have no reason to believe otherwise, then he'll be leaving everything in the ring when the fight's done. And whether all of you guys believe this or not, Calzaghe can **** when he chooses to, he's just been cautious the last several years because of his fragile hands. If he decides not to worry about his hands anymore, he might decide to start throwing bombs again, which will cause any body shots thrown by Roy to get real expensive, real quick. You can't throw hooks to the body against a guy with Calzaghe's handspeed without a very big risk of getting caught with a counter.

Roy will get caught in this fight...what happens when he does all depends on which Calzaghe shows up. If it's the one from years ago, that knocked out all his early opponents within a couple of rounds, there could be trouble for Roy.

I actually expect Jones to lay back and mostly throw counter right/left hook combinations, and not even throw that many jabs. The action will be sporadic after the 4th, with Roy showing moments of brilliance, but not enough to take the decision. I honestly don't believe he'll throw that many body punches at all, and I think he'll land the left hook more than anything else.

I hope Calzaghe stops Roy, shame on him for now taking on the best, he was afraid to lose before now he don't give a ****. I"ve heard about him having money problems but i don't think its true. I'd like to see Calzghe ko Roy and stop the Roy hype that to his credit the ****wagoneers have climbed on once again.
