        My heart and my faith would be with Joe, but I'd watch that fight with my eyes covered, peeking through my fingers.

        At 168 pounds RJJ was a flawless killing machine.

          I got derailed when someone said Tony wasn't an ATG.

          Maybe he isn't but there aren't a lot of SMW that could stand toe to toe with Sam Peter, I give him a ton of respect for that, there aren't a lot of HW's that can stand toe to toe with Sam Peter.

              Roy Jones Jr no doubt.

              Not to say calzaghe wouldnt give him some problems but Roy Jones Jr. by a decision.

              currently RRJ vs. Calzaghe then its a different story...i dont know who i'd pick to win but it i think currently it would be a lot closer of a fight than in their primes.

                Roy Jones..easily would beat JC in his prime
                He would even beat JC now
                JC is always off balance, RJ's the ultimate counter puncher..he can counter any punch in the book

                  Roy Jones would make Calzage look like Joe made Lacy look.

                    I think prime Roy Would struggle with Calzaghe but i still think he would win ,Roy did'nt like fighting Southpaws IMO and Calzaghe has to be p4p one of the most awkward Southpaws ever on top of that he knows how to maximise the Southpaw stane to his advantage

                    lets not forget a prime Roy was getting outboxed by Montell Griffin unitll Jones hurt him , i know Griffin is a different type of fighter but Griffin did'nt have the hand speed of Jones but he was still able to use ring smarts to negate Roys speed ,i Roy is one of my favourites but lets not pretend like he was unbeatable in his prime cause no fighter is unbeatable at any given time

                    Tyson v Douglas ,Shane Mosley v Forrest ,Curry v Honeyghan

                      I guess you forgot what happened in the rematch which answered all questions.
