      Bitchslaps him 2 or 3 times per round at best... "Calslappy" as he is called, would slap back 40 to 60 times a round. The question is... how far has Jones truly fallen from his prime. Obviously he is far from is best... but I'm not so sure he his the complete shell of his former self everyone makes him out to be. He was superman during his prime, but with few exceptions... Jones wasn't fighting Tarvers, Johnsons, and Calzaghe's back then. B-Hop had not quite come into his own yet, Toney was completely dried out for their fight, and I'm not even going to say anything about Ruiz.

      Jones showed distinct signs of slowing against Trinidad... but he still looked damn good. I don't know man... I just don't know if Jones has fallen as far as we think... and we all saw how he looked against Joe.

        Prime RJJ v Prime Calzaghe imo, RJJ wins.

        When RJJ knocks down Calzaghe like he now did as and old man, Calzaghe would probably stay down.

        In all seriousness, i don't see Joe winning Prime RJJ or a Prime Hopkins

            Pathetic.

            First of all he is 36, not 37.

            Instead of fighting bums in half-empty stadiums, where was he when Hopkins was undisputed and MW, and RJJ was LH Champ?

            Yeah that's right, he was "Scared of Flying". Now when their about to retire, he suddenlt overcomes his "Fear of Flying" and finally makes his belated trip to the US. Pathetic.

            He has been exposed by his ex-Promoter Warren, and does not need Boxing-Fans to expose him anymore.

            Biggest waste of boxing talent. Ever

              What was Roy doing?

              Calzaghe was no-name he couldnt get those fights you mongoloid.

              Calzaghe was at his worst he still interrupted Bernards best career run and career display vs Pavlik.
              Pains you lot that its Calzaghe that will be remembered not those guys (Small guys) and (Bum basher)

                He is basically blaming Frank Warren for not getting him the big fights earlier in his career. So why did Calzaghe stick by him for so many years? You can drag his contact into the equation but Hamed and Hatton managed to get out of their contacts with Warren, so.........?

                  No doubt he should have gotten away earlier, but he had a loyalty to Warren. I don't understand why either.

                    Warren has exposed Calzaghe.

                    His loyalty was only there to take the easy engineered route

                      He is 3 moths away from 37. So yeah, obviously he is closer to 37 than 36.

                      I'm not sure where you're getting this "half-empty stadiums" thing from? Calzaghe has pulled in good crowds for many years, and right now he draws huge numbers in the UK, rivaled only by Hatton.

                      As far as being "exposed" by Warren, well some would argue with that. Not too many people believe everything FW says.
