    He is indeed.

    But training isn't indicative of how fight is going to go.

              Lol at Roy making a beat with the speed bag. If the stamina is there this could be a very long night for Joe. Side note: I hope for Joe's sake he doesn't put both his hands down and sway his shoulders like in the video. One of the best defensive fighters out there in Toney found out the hard way that's not a good idea.

                Not in his latest fights, or have 'Y'all forgotten'?

                Just kidding guys. Actually, Jones does look very sharp, but, the problem is he would always look nearly as good as this. This is training guys, they do this every day and have done so for their entire lives. They're always going to look quite similar to what they did just now.

                The only thing I find a bit strange is the amount of Calzaghe's posturing. He doesn't usually do that in training, even in his open sessions that I've seen. He seemed much more laid back and content to train in the previous ones I've seen, not go all rapper-homeboy with the hands down and ****e. I don't know, I have a big feeling that Calzaghe has massively underestimated what Jones still has left.

                In a recent photo of Calzaghe I saw, and don't forget that this is only a week before the fight, he was looking bloated and actually the fattest I've ever seen him, training or no training. I have some odd feeling that they simply think they are going to cruise into this fight without an actual fight! I'm getting a little worried for Joe to be honest. Though it will be fantastic if Jones can pull this out. Jones has had his time though, and if Calzaghe loses this fight his entire career will be looked upon as BS, so I would like him to win simply because he actually is a very good fighter deserving more recognition than he gets, whereas Jones is already considered one of the greats.

                    I just noticed Joe puts hes hands down to hes waist and does a little sway everytime he finishes up a combo.
