    My opinion from someone who was there

    It was a great fight and the atmosphere was unbelievable. Calzaghe is great but possibly even better are his fans. They flew in from overseas and showed incredible support to him the whole time, its great to see. I had a great time with them.
    Jones showed heart fighting back when hurt and cut, although he didn't go after Joe enough he looked dazed a few times but wasn't in too much danger otherwise. Calzaghe was hurt when he went down but recovered very well after. He had faster handspeed than Roy and much more combinations of course. He smothered Roy's punches. Roy had trouble getting off, couldn't hit Joe, and wasn't throwing enough punches on top of that.
    Calzaghe's fans around me before the fight told me that Jones in his prime would've won handidly. I didn't ask afterwards or find out, everything was too wild but lost of fun.
    Those are some answers to questions and stuff but if theres something else, ask and I'll see if I can answer.

    How do you see that version of RJJ go up against B Hop?

      I don't think hes active enough or quick enough at this stage and Hopkins should win by a comfortable decision, possibly stoppage but I don't think so.
