Calzaghe Fans Who Think He "Ruined" Jones

[IMDAZED]

getting batterd by actual "punches" for 9 rounds then getting ko'd and smashing your head off the canvas only to wake up 10 minutes later, and i imagine his head must've been ringing a couple of days after

yea, getting slapped is definitely worse....






anyway
i think the tarver knockout ruined him, personally

Of course the Tarver bout ruined him psychologically. He's never fought the same.

Its comparable if you take into account the time frame. Roy had to lose 14 lbs of muscle in 6 weeks compared to Chris having to lose 6+lbs of muscle in 1.5 weeks.

199lbs to 175lbs is not 14lbs.

at 199lbs he was pure muscle no fat or water, he was not blown up...

In order to get down to 175 he had to strip down his muscle AND dehydrate a **** ton of wate ron top of that...

You dont fully recoup that kind of 6 week strip down in 24 hours...

Just because he put on 10 pounds in a night, doesnt mean his body is back to normal now.. especially at 35 years old.

[THE REED]

He got down to 185, then sweated down 10 lbs to make 175lbs

So.. really.. he got down to 175lbs.

From a 199lbs of pure muscle, to 175lbs... at 35 years old.. no 24 hour rehydration period is going suddenly restore you to 100%.

cutting 25 lbs of muscle in 2 months, ruined him.

Jones was shot long before he fought Calzaghe... that was just a glorified exhibition bout at that stage of Roy's career.

The only thing that surprised me was the KD.

He went from this:




To this:




at 35 years old...

you don't think stopping the roids helped, Reed?

What do you make of Jones vs Hopkins? I can't believe Bore Hard signed the match, talk about meaningless.

[THE REED]

How do you know he didnt lose 20 pounds of muscle, and dehydrate 5 pounds of water... and simply put on 10 pounds of water AND food?

Certainly you eat more the day of the fight, especially rich carbs for energy.. then you do the before the weigh in..

Im not sayng that it would, but he did say he was fine for his fight with Tarver II

I am sure he did...

He also said he was 110% for the Calzaghe fight

110% for the Danny Green fight.

Hasn't lost a step.

Still the fastest cat in the game.


I mean... if he said it.. then ****...
