      Yeah, this is the ******est **** I have ever heard. His power is laughable at heavy. Wladimir would knock him out with ease...

          This coming from someone who accuses people of racism because they don't agree with your opinion on Wlad. That's what I call delusional.

            British fans definitely overhype their fighters, but less so than we Americans tend to underrate or deride them.

                Don't be ridiculous. At the height of Jones's career, he was a undisputed light-heavyweight champion, a p4p king and a 3-division champion. Why would he bother with a WBO title holder from Europe.

                At that time, Calzaghe was no bigger then Zolte Erdei the current WBO-light-heavyweight title holder is. Why waiste time with a guy like that.

                And still, whether now or in the past......RJJ still makes Joe look more sloppieer and average then he evere has looked before if they ever fight.

                  If you're impressed by a guy who dominated the weakest division in all of boxing and finally moved up in weight class once a fight against a 43-year-old came up, then you seriously need to watch more boxing...

                    i think it's the other way around, it's the yanks who overrate their fighters...
                    if former soviet union was a little more ******* some time ago, we wouldn't have all these over-hyped yank "all time greats"

                      You honestly, seriously think Jones would duck a guy who barely beat a washed up, shell of his former self Hopkins? The same guy Jones dominated in his prime. You're a joke...
