Joe Calzaghe will take on Roy Jones Jr. on Nov.8th in Madision Square Garden.  And also this will be his last fight.  The 36 year old in a surprising statement had this to say.

“It’s a massive fight and it will be my last,” said Calzaghe, 36. “I’ve known for a while when I want to go out and as long as I put on a great performance this is my time.

“If I can do that then I’ve achieved everything I’ve wanted to achieve in my career. I would never forgive myself if I came to my last fight and threw it all away. Complacency is not in my mindset.

“But I know in my heart this is the right time to stop and my aim is to remain undefeated.”

The LightHeavyWeight Champion was suppose to fight Jones Jr. and then take on MiddleWeight Champion Kelly Palvick. But Calzaghe is walking away.  Calzaghe to many experts is pound for pound the best fighter in the game.  This will be something if both Calzaghe and Mayweather who were both at one time considred the best fighters pound for pound now both walk away.
