    Calzaghe was once quoted as saying something like "I know my limits and I'd have to be paid the Crown ***els to fight Roy Jones Jr."

    This was around 2001/2002 I think.

        "I could probably give Jones a tough fight, probably the best fight he's ever had," said Calzaghe. "But I know my capabilities and unless I got paid the crown ***els I wouldn't want to risk it."

        Doesn't get more clear than that.

          Not scared - but Frampton said a while back that he wasn't ready for Rigo.

          I respect that more than fake calling guys out, when you know you have no intention of fighting them.

          I really don't thnk any boxer who has been in the game long enough is ever "scared" in the literal sense.

The closer I get to the ring the more confident I get. The closer, the more confident. The closer the more confident I get. All during training I ve been afraid of this man. I think this man might be capable of beating me. I ve dreamed of him beating me. For that I ve always stayed afraid of him.
                Great answer.

                  Looks like you are the one who might have to GTFO after Reed posted the link.

                      Anyway, it asked about him travelling to USA to fight Jones.

                      He just said he wanted to be compensated handsomely for it.

                      Why didn't Jones go to UK? Lol he's certainly got no problem travelling now - getting his ass knocked out in three continents (that's gotta be a record - google for fact check confirmation).

                      Nothing about that article said he was "scared" to fight Jones. It said he recognized the risks involved with fghting Jones, in USA, nonetheless.

                      Obviously Jones didn't wanna travel to fight him, and he didn't wanna travel to fight Jones - both most likely wanted too much money to do so.

                      And oh yeah... This, one more time



                      And Joe would like to thank all you yanks berry, berry much ... BEST WISHES, JOEY ZAGZ...
