    I'll enlighten you: Joe could beat Roy by frustrating him and outpointing him until Roy made a mistake and gets caught with a left hook that drops him.

    That's how Joe could do it. Would I bet money on it? No. But, Calzaghe has disproved them all for 17 friggin years. No way am I going to now say Calzaghe has no chance against prime Roy. That's ******. Calzaghe has a chance against any SMW.

      Think about the hypocrisy in what you just said.

      How many good fighters did Cal beat? Who's resume would you rather have?

      Hopkins+Toney+ Tarver... or
      Eubank+Manfredo+ Kessler

            Calzaghe is the greatest of all time, every single fighter from 168 upwards spent thier lives trying to aviod this guy, he had no choice but to fight Byron Mitchell etc etc.

            What has roy jones done at 168? only beat a Prime undefeated James Toney, you think Toney is in the same Leauge as Kessler and Lacy?

            Kessler beat libero andrade you know?

            I think that makes him better than jones,

            And Jones took steriods, everyone know steriods make you a more talented fighter, seriously, anyone can take them and become roy jones overnight.

            Didnt you know this.

            there called performance enhancing for a reason & if they were so inefectual he would'nt have taken it especially when you consider the pentaly it carries

            Mosley ,Holyfeild,RJJ,Toney name a British fighter that fights under the influence of Steroids

                      Did I say he has no chance? NO. I said it is something I don't see happening. 17 years against who? Anyone NEAR the level of a prime RJJ, HELL NO. RJJ in his prime didn't get frustrated because he controled every aspect of the game during his bouts. Cal has a chance, a slim one at that. Cal is the greatest SMW of all time, but RJJ in his prime was one of the best ever, period.
