The Joe Calzaghe v Roy Jones Junior odds for this Calzaghe Jones betting world championship boxing match at Madison Square Garden has the Welshman as resounding favourite to win. Jones however believes the fight on Saturday is history in the making and that he will overturn the odds. Calzaghe, undefeated in 45 fights, has promised to retire following the fight with the eight-time and four-weight champion Jones. The two men will contest the newly created Ring Magazine light-heavyweight championship.
Jones now 39 years old is not thinking defeat, he admits that Calzaghe is worthy favourite but also warned that he is one of the greatest champions of all time and that spirit and reputation will be on the line in the fight. Calzaghe is three years his junior and is still unbeaten in 45 fights and is probably Britain's greatest ever fighter.
The two fighter's credentials are really staggering and fighting in such an atmosphere of that of Madison Square Garden will make for a historical fight. The arena has already sold out the 20.000 seats bit it is not sure how many of them will make the journey over the Atlantic to support Calzaghe

Had the fight been fought seven or eight years ago it would have been impossible to see how Calzaghe could have won. Jones at that time was regarded by many as the greatest boxer in history at any weight and he was fiercely determined.
Calzaghe however now has the advantage, Jones, who has come out of retirement for the fight, had an anti-climactic end to his career, losing several fights and appearing to lose interest. It is why Calzaghe is hot favourite to take this by decision.
Betting
Calzaghe 1/3, Jones 9/4, Draw, 20/1.
