Roy Jones, Jr.’s Boxing Future Annulled by Calzaghe

Joe Calzaghe fluttered Roy Jones, Jr. with a million love taps and took a unanimous decision at MSG over the man who seemed to have married into the Pound-for-Pound-Champion clan in the late 90s as it seemed to become his surname. That divorce is final as Calzaghe, 36, recovered from a bit of a surprise knockdown in the first to poke Jones, 39, into Bolivian (though we're partial to the Haitian divorce, ourselves). After the shakeup in the first round that sent Calzaghe to the mat, Jones didn't have much to do in the fight but bleed in one place. That 37th birthday is a bitch, we guess.

In the undercard, Zab Judah (of the KOGOD mancrush Judahs) pounded on Random Fighter #4 in a wide points decision. However, we recommend changing body lotions from Jergens to something used to cure meat; a little toughness on the epidermis wouldn't hurt.
