    Apart from being the champion for over 10 years plus never being beaten!!!!! Mmmmmm When Joe fights and it dont matter who it is, He stands right infront of ya..I cant remember any fighter that he has fought and beaten behind the Jab what I mean by that is just pot shotting through a fight..In every single fight the guy has fought he is there to take you out period or if he cant he will give it everything hes got..He does the job and the goes home..He can defs take a punch aswell. "Thats called a natrual boxer" NOW TO COMPARE WITH JONES HE WAS **** HOT ASWELL!! BUT THERE WAS NOTHING NATRUAL ABOUT HIM, ROIDS UP TO THE EYEBALLS,Sorry if anyone is offended. Just M.O

      I don't think Joe could hold a candle to Jones in his prime but I have no doubts he'd win if they were matched up tomorrow.
      I don't think Calzaghe has much chance of beating a prime Jones, though obviously Joe isn't in his prime now either. Before he started having hand problems and was more of a puncher, he had a puncher's chance, that's about it.

      The only thing Joe has over a prime Roy is chin, but I still give prime Roy a chance of knocking Joe out, albeit not a huge one.

      I like Roy, but his best days are far behind him and win or lose against Tito, he will lose to Joe if a fight gets made. I would like to see this fight, however, and it would be much more exciting than the Hopkins fight. And it wouldn't bother me if Roy won.

        Calzaghe couldn't beat a prime RJJ with a shovel.

                    There are no Excuses m8..That is the dif between the 2..One is a true natrual champ..Calzaghe wins all his fights natrualy...Maybe he hadnt fought as many top names in boxing as Jones but he has never ran away from someone in the division..Hopkins knew the score years ago...Nothing in what I said is a lie just because you dont agree doesnt make me wrong..its M.O

                    Its a fact he took roids..which is a form of cheating! Im not saying he didnt give great entertainment, But lets keep it real..

                      And you know Jones only tested positive once, he beat good fighters in stunning fashion whilst testing negative, the point of the thead was to determine if Cal had any superior attributes, apart from stamina id say no. Cal has been down a few times though of course never stopped but then he hasnt moved up to heavyweight to win a title then come back down to defend at light-heavy all in the space of 6 months. Cal doesnt come close to Roy in terms of style either
