The guy has admitted taking performance enhancing drugs. I am fed up listening to people going on about his natural gifts. Why is this not questioned? How much did drugs augment his abilities? How long was he taking them? One thing you cansay for Calzaghe he has always relied on his natural gifts.

    For me prime Jones wins but then again cheats usually do.


    Had to get this off my chest.
    - - Busted once by a drug test where he and his opponent both took a legal over the counter health potion. There was no backup sample it was such a poor boxing jurisdiction, so no penalties. Roy passed every subsequent drug test before and after the above which he didn't fail because it was legal.

      I think Calzaghi is highly underrated in the US, people say he never went on the road.

      But so what?

      How many American champions fight outside the US?

      Anyway prime Roy v prime Joe (before hid hands were f****d) then it's Jones by UD but it's a lot closer than many might think.

          Mismatch. It isn't even close. Jones shuts him and his fans up quick.

            - - Joe under the onerous, bankrupt contract to Warren. As soon as he ran the contract out, he came to America to utterly humiliate in a landside over the two top US HOFers Poppy and Roy.

            That made him enough $$$ to retire on and purchase a home in the UK.

                He was not slappy when his hands were not destroyed.

                He had to adapt.

                46-0.
