Roy Levasta Jones Jr & Joe 'the freshest move i've ever seen' Calzaghe fight each other Saturday night... Boyo is undefeated but i'm going with Super Roy on this one... and here's why bitches...
1. He raps about fighting;
2. He cockfights... no homo;
"Jones Junior is passionate about cockfighting, a blood sport that pits in mortal combat specially bred chickens - often with a curved spike known as a cockspur attached to their legs. Over the years he bred around 1,200 roosters and hens on his farm in the Florida cornfields 25 miles north of Pensacola, his small home town on the Gulf of Mexico. He would drive them to Louisiana where cockpits were still legal, before it became the final US state to outlaw the sport last year.
A minder still failing to appear through the open bedroom door, Jones has more to say. 'Back in the old days soldiers used to fight chickens while at war because it would give them a sense of what they were dealing with. You understand me?
'Now they're just so eager about animals - so they don't allow you to do it. But to let them fight like that you've got to love them. It's like a coach and his fighter - training and teaching him to box.'
The spectacle of warring roosters has such resonance for Jones that in his alternative career as a rapper, in his Body Head Bangerz hip-hop outfit, he spat the lyrics: 'You remember the left hook James Toney got? Sucker move I stole from a game cock', to commemorate a victory in November 1994 that made him the IBF super-middleweight champion." -
