Hate it when boxers are insulted re Mike B. Joe's record speaks for itself and in the twilight of his career he doesn't deserve that sort of backbone slur. Mike you may not be a Calzaghe fan but he's the longest reigning champ in any devision has beaten great, good and not so good. Shame on you.

well joe deserves a good payday and he should beat an over the hill roy jones jr, cos he would get beaten by froch ,iam afraid joe's been avoiding him ,he's a big puncher

I think that Calzaghe has earned this Jones jr fight. Just have to look at who Joe has fought and beaten, He's been where he his due to a lot of hard work and dedication.
Okay its a fair point to say that Roy Jones is not as young as he was, but Joe has always wanted this fight and good luck to him!!!!!

calzage fighting jones jus proves he's not up there with the best jones jr is 5 yrs past his best!! calzage to me jus aint up there with the best of the best!!

I'm afraid that this last fight of joe is all about the money for him and you cant blame him. Hes made more money from the fight with hopkins than he has done in his whole career. Thats 11 years as a world champion!!!
As much as i would love to see a fight with froch, who i belive can be something very special in time, he's got some power that boy, joe has earn't the right to do what he wants. And he wanted a fight with jones jr years ago.
Enjoy the last fight of a lengend. JOE CALZAGHE!!!

Joe has nothing to prove. Can you deny him one more big pay day? Ten years champion, never ducking anyone, an unblemished lagacy. How many boxers have been given a shot by Joe and been found wanting? Putting that aside where is Carl Froch in the equation? How many people have ducked this man in the past? We could be looking at the next champion.

Chad Dawson? no, too young and strong. Taylor? again too young. Clinton Woods? wont bring enough money! Kelly Pavlik? way too young and strong! Roy Jones Jr? Yeah, he's passed it and no danger!

Find your back bone Joe, Chris Eubank gave you your shot!
