After a shaky start and being down in the 1st it doesn't come much easier than that. A complete landslide victory for Joe, they keep going on about a re-match in the commentary, but it's not one I'd like to see again.

Calzaghe was way too quick for Jones, a performance of a Champion to get knocked down and come back and batter your opponent. The fight should have been stopped that cut was horrendous.

Not seen the fight yet but rom what i heard Calzaghe dominated,to beat a great fighter like RJJ so easily goes to show Calzaghe could still go on for atleast another year s its abit of a shame hes choosing to retire.

Great performance from Joe, far more polished than the Hopkins performance despite the early knockdown in round one. He was showboating and teasing Jones throughout and the cut on Jones face tells you how much Joe dominated. He was superb and the fight could've been stopped anywhere from round 8.
I hope we get one more fight from Joe in the UK, but apart from a Hopkins re-match, I have no idea who he'd fight so he'll probably call it a day. A fight with RJJ should be out of the question now. He looked miles past his best.

it looked like two mates boxing...... oh hang on thats what it was! garbage "fight" i.m.o with the two smiling at each other throughout and j.c slapping away with r.j.j backing on the ropes and letting him. r.j.j never fights like that! so we can assume that he's either a. washed up or b. just did'nt take it all seriously? the fact that they both put their own cash into it says it all for me...
living in cornwall (result) not watching the saints (very very bad!)
So if he doesn't retire, whom are his petential opponents? Hopkins isn't a fight I'd wantto see again, and RJJ doesn't deserve a rematch, and Pavlik probably isn't good enough, and Chad Dawson, isn't a big enough draw so I can't see Calzaghe risking his legacy.
