Check you out high roller! I reckon joe by decision but I put a punt on him for to do it in rounds 1 - 3. Dont reckon I have much chance but I reckon joe'll do it.

Don't know who'll win, but part of me secretly hopes Roy does a job on him and creates a shock!!
Kick off for these superfights is usually 4am!!

Good fight. Glad the ref let it go on regardless of jnr's cut.

As a viewer I was sort of glad they didnt stop it but it was a pretty nasty cut. I think if Calzaghe was cut like that they would have stopped it. RJJ was let go on because he had a chance of a freak ko.
With the amount of punches Calzaghe was landing I was fully expecting to see Jones open up to the point where we could see his skull. Thankfully that didnt happen.
WAR JOE!

fight was class :D thought roy had him when joe went down in the 1st round. but he clawed his way back really well. jones's cut was huge they couldnt stop the blood atall but i was really happy they let the fight go on. have to say the ref was brilliant unlike the one hatton had when he was fighting mayweather. hopefully they call a rematch for the millenium stadium ;) Brilliant viewing :D

i watched the fight in retrospect from the aston social club ahead of the villa game, due to the early start this morning i missed the fight live, and tried to resist temptation at seeing the result emblazened across tv's at city airport this morning,
he was genuine class, very showman like, and if it was not for the large sums of money on the fight, i think it should have been stopped early on in the fight, RJJnr got nowhere near him apart from the first and i think eight round, i just hope that is he does call it a day, he doesn;t get forgotten about, he is truelly one of the all time great fighters, and does not get the recognition he deserves!

Being a Jones Jnr fan for years and years I found this one hard to watch, no discredit to Joe to pulled off a great win, but it reminded me off when Lewis fought Tyson, by then Tyson was a mere one punch fighter, no combination and at least 10 years past his best, something similar here in my opinion, there were no Jones combinations, he has reverted to a one punch fighter, this was not the Roy Jones that demolished John Ruiz or Vinny Pazienza - but well done Joe, now please retire and don't have your legacy destroyed like so many others....
