Roy Jones JR Vs. Joe Calzaghe Nov-8 at 10:00:00 PM Joe Calzaghe - Roy Jones Jr. bout will be in November. Will Roy win and reclaim his mantle of greatness ? Will a Calzalghe win seal a much desired match between Joe and Kelly Pavlik in 2009 ? Will Calzaghe, upon a win over Jones retire as he has hinted? Undefeated super middleweight Joe Calzaghe (45-0, 32 KOs) has had a stellar career, beating a variety of fighters some good and many not so good, but on November 8th barring another injury delay by Calzaghe, he’ll be facing easily the best opponent of his career in 39 year-old Roy Jones Jr. (52-4, 38 KOs) at the Madison Square Garden, in New York City, New York.

Joe Calzaghe is the first fighter to hold the Ring Magazine super-middle and light-heavyweight titles concurrently and Jones hasn’t exactly shined in the past four years, and has lost three out of his last six bouts against good opponents.

Calzaghe will have to deal with someone that is not only larger than him and used to carrying the 175 pound weight, but also a fighter faster than himself. This is something that Calzaghe will have problems adjusting to. He’s always been the faster fighter than his over-matched European opponents, but what will he do when he’s forced to finally face someone even faster than himself

In the end I look for Calzaghe to just outwork Roy. He does need to be wary of Roy's counter left hook off the ropes. Jones can give Joe a lot of problems with that punch. I think Joe wins a decision with a few points to spare. Maybe a late round stoppage.
