I feel that it is a shame that Joe Calzaghe was in his late thirties when he finally faced the great Roy Jones Jr., as was Roy Jones Jr.
Would have been great to see them figth each other in their primes.Comment

[QUOTE=Lord13;4302620]Roy is overrated and Joe exposed him.

after his loss to calzaghe, Roy showed pure class and respect. calzaghe was a complete ******* during the fightComment

He deserves credit, no doubt. He might be shot and past it now, but in his prime he was an absolutely immense fighter with amazing skills. He is 39 now as well so nobody can expect too much of him. I have said this on 2-3 threads and I will say it again, Joe did outclass him and I wanted Joe to win... but if the fight happened when both fighters were in there prime, it could and probably would have gone the other way.
As for respect, both fighters where respectful before and after the fight, Joe did a bit of show boating, yeah... but you gotta realize that it is exactly what Jones used to do to his opponents, Joe wanted to go out on a high. Anyway I give Jones all of the credit and respect he deserves!
