To this fight all week and i havnt seen Jones look in better shape for quite a while.

I really think Jones fancies this and 9/4 on a fighter who was the best pound for pound boxer for over 10 years looks great value.

Benny might be right about the draw...something you can never rule out with a british fighter boxing in the states..Lennox Lewis v Holyfield (1) finished in a draw at this venue when ALL of the experts had Lewis winning the fight by at least 3 rounds....

I really dont think Calzaghe will have tthe power to stop Jones who although knocked out in two fights in a row was coming down from heavyweight and thats not an easy thing to do as he was losing nearly two stone to take those fights.

Jones has now been at this weight for over 18 months and that problem wont come into this fight.

Can Jones knock out Calzaghe...? Doubtful as Joe has one of the best chins in boxing but Jones does have power and has koed 67% of fighters he has fought which seeings as the opponents he has faced have over the last 10 years been top class is a fairly good record...If there is to be a ko then i see it being Calzaghe who will be on the canvas.

Calzaghe has it all to lose here...unbeaten in 45 fights, going to tie the record of unbeaten fights (46) if he wins this.....and saying this will be his last fight heaps on the pressure....

Calzaghe has a clause for a re match in Wales should he lose this so this tells me the Calzaghe camp are not 100% confident of victory.

So my bets posted still remain the same but as Benny says maybe a small saver on a draw could be the wise choice....
