Watch the video how Calzaghe was knocked down on the 1st round but came back strong to win unanimously.
Joe Calzaghe put away Roy Jones to retain his unbeaten record.
Joe Calzaghe consistently broke down and chuck out a legend on Saturday, efficaciously ending Roy Jones Jr.’s career with a ill-proportioned victory Saturday in their light heavyweight boxing bout at Madison Square Garden.
All 3 judges called it 118-109 in favour of Calzaghe.
Jones endured the same destiny that happened so many of boxing's legend before him. Just like Muhammad Ali, Joe Louis and Sugar Ray Leonard, the one-time pound-for-pound king was biffed and crushed badly by a younger and brisker opponent.
Jones knocked Calzaghe down with a glance of his once-great hand speed, dropping down the unvanquished Welsh boxing star with a jab and a straight right in the 1st round. But afterwards, Calzaghe (46-0, 32 KOs) commanded the fight to such an extent that there were flinches from a lot of media who had cut across Jones for a long time as he had dealt clean blows and fans started to swarm to the exits by the 10th round.
Calzaghe, who has mouthed of retiring, was generally magnificent in bringing up his record to 46-0 while holding the Ring Magazine belt, typic as the world’s finest 175-pound boxer. He burned flurries that to the body and head that Jones, in spite of his pre-fight talk, could not respond.
