Remember that styles make fights and the speed of Jones will be WAY too much for Calzaghe to handle. I know he has been knocked around lately, but by now his body has had time to heal from the shock he put it through by gaining / losing 25 lbs of solid muscle (I hope you guys do realize the toll this took on his body). Sorry to burst your bubbles but if Calzaghe takes this fight it is going to be the rebirth of Roy Jones Jr. and it will not be pretty for the Brits....
Roy Jones has recovered as much as he can from what he put his body through. One never fully recovers from such a devastating experience. On top of this, Roy's brain is more easily rattled, similar to Troy Aikman late in his career due to post-concussion syndrome.
Roy Jones is a hall of famer and would have hurt Joe pretty bad a few years ago, but now Roy's stamina is not the same, he hasn't showed he can sustain a decent pace in a while, and Joe is a relentless guy. Roy also said himself his motivation for boxing comes and goes. This is not the attitude needed to beat Joe right now.
Roy has a chance, because he's Roy. That chance is not very big though. If Roy won, it'd be historic. We'll see...
