Calzaghe under pressure - Jones jnr

Jones, aged 39 and with a 52-4 record, comes into the fight still trying to recapture the adulation that accompanied his reign as an eight-time, four-weight 'pound-for-pound' champion before losing consecutive fights at light-heavyweight to Antonio Tarver, Glen Johnson and Tarver again in 2004-05.

Jones, who insists his own legacy is not under threat, claims Calzaghe's reputation would be tarnished by defeat, saying; "A loss for Joe would be much more significant to him than a win would be for me."

He added: "Winning would be good for me but losing would really ruin his record."

Jones' comeback trail had been pedestrian and less than dazzling with decision wins over Prince Ajamu and Anthony Hanshaw taking place a year apart but Jones got back on track with a more impressive points win over Felix Trinidad in New York last January.

Now he faces Calzaghe, trying to take the Ring Magazine belt as undisputed light-heavyweight champion that the Welshman captured in April on a split decision over Bernard Hopkins.

"To lose to just one man, well, you would have to love being that one man," added Jones.

"It (pressure) isn't all on Joe because people are paying to see me fight too and I have to keep up my end too but there's more pressure on him."

As for his own reputation Jones, who is happy in the role of underdog, continued: "Nothing that happens in this fight can take away from my legacy.

"I might be able to add to it if I pull off this upset but that's the only thing that will happen to it."
