    Roy should've learned how to box. Once his reflexes, timing and legs started to go, he was ***ed. Confidence played a big role too once he got KTFO. He was already quite safety-first before that.

      And the funny thing about that is, I'm British.

      I'd have no issue with it being Hopkins or Kessler Gif's, there both solid and very good wins.

      It's only the Roy one that frustrates me a little.

        Ducking and dodging Roy's punches is impressive as Jones was still pretty quick then, however at times Calzaghe is overly ****y and would loved to have seen Roy just have starched him when Calzaghe was doing his little wiggle.

          Roy did the same kinda ***** to the bums he fought in his prime. Butthurtedness is a symptom of tasting your own medicine for Roy fans.

            Whats there to miss?

            He fought no decent opponent his whole carrear.

            Kessler-broken hand
            Lacy- overhyped bum
            Hopkins- old, gift decison
            RJJ- Shot
            Robin Reid-gift decison
            Eubank-weightdrained way past it

            Glen Johnson, Hopkins and Reid rematches, Prime RJJ, Steiglitz, Froch, Taylor, Dawson Echols, Tarver, Pavlik and Woods all ducked by Calzaghe.

              That's very true.

              It's a shame he didn't really, It wasn't nice seeing him take those beatings.

              The point you highlighted about confidence is a very good point and alot of people don't seem to realise it. Before he was stopped so brutally, Roy honestly believed he was unbeatable.

              Maybe he didn't sharpen up technically because he had been so succesful without it for so long it's all he knew.

              Who knows.

                  Roy Jones got his karma when Joe clowned him.

                  Funny how when Roy Jones clowned and disrespected boxers in his prime it was badass and cool, but when someone clowns Roy Jones it is mad disrespectful

                      The implication was there, why put that line in anyway?
