    im a big Calzaghe fan, im welsh and im biased in favour of Joe. do i think RJJ can win? Too ******* right i do! RJJ is the real deal and both of these guys are absolute top drawer.
    What worries me the most is that RJJ will take any opportunities given to him on Saturday night. If Joe gives him an opening it could be goodnight vienna! Unlike Hopkins, RJJ will come to fight. He wont have the work rate of Joe - noone has, but he WILL throw leather and he will throw it effectively.
    Its a tough one to call......im doing my pants already!

        Jones is not going to get killed, he's past prime but not a shot fighter.

        He'll likely lose a decision, but have his moments. I think Joe's great stamina will be a factor.

        However, Jones could definitely win or draw by Joe getting robbed on the scorecards. Remember Holyfield vs. Lewis I? Casamayor vs. Santa Cruz? Those fights were in New York.

          Joe can beat Roy, but he can't KO him. People who are worried about Jones should calm the **** down. I think he's got a close decision win in this fight.

            It all depends on which RJ shows up on Saturday.

            Joe looks the fresher of the two and, to my knowledge, hasn't been ko'd in a fight, so the edge goes to Joe.

            Yeah, The stamina issue will be a factor in Joes favor, but jet lag might be Joe's kryptonite.

            However, if anyone can give Joe his first defeat, besides Hopkins, it would be Jones who I'm sure gets his motivation from watching B-Hop tap Joe's chin and putting him on the canvass for a few scary seconds.

            Perhaps Jones feels he can finish that script.

            It may not look spectacular, but it'll be good to watch.

              Only seriously delusional Roy fans or Joe supporters who are pretty transparent in pumping up Roy to make Joe look better.

              That being said anything can happen I suppose. Weirder **** has happened like Tyson Douglas.
