    Jones was well past prime but Calzaghe was not in his prime himself remember.

      I thought Roy was gonna whoop his ass so I have to give Joe full credit. He humiliated Roy in the slappiest way possible.

        I take nothing away from calzaghe...i think hes a great and would have given jones or b-hop alot of trouble in their primes....

        But the fact is jones wasnt in his prime...or anywhere near it....

        It was a good performance from joe...but the fight itself was nothing special...
        Basically what I wanted to say, Jones was already a long way down the slope, in his prime I think he would have made a mess of Calzaghe.

        We see this a lot, for example in my opinion, a prime Mike Tyson probably would have skinned Lennox Lewis. But we saw one of the fighters in his prime and the other just there to collect a good payday based on who he used to be.

            so you don't have to fight top fighters once you aren't prime? the list of excuses grows!

              why is it a good win because you have poor judgment? if i think mathew hatton is gonna beat alvarez and he doesn't does that make it a great win for alvarez?

                Meaningless, but a flashy performance. So a 2 instead of a 1.

                  This sums it up for me, Jones werent in his prime but Clazaghe wasn't exactly young and he shown a lot of skill that night.

                      No it means you've gotta give him his credit cause he beat a guy you didnt think he would beat.
