    Hmmm lets see a fast hard hitting counter puncher.. against a steroid pumped Glass jaw..
    Eubank would have only needed to land Flush once..

    You start to hate simply because someone does not share your opinion.. and then you question my analytical skills?? Call me a Nationalist when I state my nationality.. and IT is NOT the nationality of the man I am favouring? And you question MY Intelligence???
    I am not sensitive you just need to learn how to communicate and perhaps to learn a few manners for good measure...

          yes he is. eubank and calzaghe are at a distance.

          it is so pathetic to read all these people screaming glass chin, if he had a glass chin why did not tarver knock him out in the 1st fight where he landed a godzillion of times.

          you have seen a heavyweight landing on jones, why wasnt he fazed?

          it is really funny that because he was knocked out at 35 by a hard hitting big light heavy you suggest he would be knocked out in his prime by a middleweight, who was not knocking out anyone in his supermiddle career. (yeah tell me again about how eubank was not the same after the watson fight... well that was the 168 eubank: if eubank did not stop 15 out of the 18 fighters he faced for a smw belt, why do you think he would stop Jones?

          ridiculous

            Did Eubanks even want to fight James Toney?

              To be honest, I don't think Calzaghe can beat Roy Jones now. Calzaghe struggled with a guy named Bika just last year. Joe hasn't fought anyone really in all those title defenses. I wanna see himin there with Kessler and even Hopkins. Joe needs to leave the SMW division and go fight some competition up north instead of waiting on Jermaine Taylor to move up. hell, I think winky wright just might give it to Joe as well.

                no he always said he would only fight Jones or Toney if there was colossal money for him

                Toney would decision him, Jones would have koed him

                      Not sure his Super Middle record warrents bieng considered the best ever in the division but for me he most certainly is! Is power and speed were awsum his reflexs Ridiculous and his combo's blinding! He for me is the best Super middle of all time. I once met Nigel Benn @ a night club here and said to him its a pitty u never got that Roy Jones fight and do u know what he said? "Its the best thing that ever happened in my career, he woulda killed me!
