Reality Check: Roy Jones Never Ducked Joe Calzaghe

[Mr. Ryan]

For anyone who hasn't seen the infamous way Darius beat Rocco the first time, here it is:

What a joke that was! Truth be told, Darius should thank god his promoter kept him away from Roy.

Wow, that is an absolute disgrace. Flopping at it's finest.

You should omit Arguello - Pryor I from your sig.

lets get this right

if 2 fighters who have belts dont wanna go to the other guys homeland to fight for unification then there either both ducking or no one is ducking plain and simple end of story

Reality Check: Nobody Cares.

I hate when people say **** like "so and so was **** anyway" and "so and so isnt fit to lace Jones' boots".

Why didnt he ****ing fight them? He couldve definitely beaten the lot of them but he didnt wanna take the risk.

[WESS]

These are the real facts:
- Roy made the guy who knocked Nunn’s ass out look like a child.
- Steve Collins couldn’t hold Roy’s jock strap.
- If you are pound for pound the best in the world you call the shots. If any of those boxers from Europe at that time wanted a beat down by Roy then they should of came to the USA.
- Now the shoe is on the other foot, and Roy should have to go to Europe if that is what Calzaghe wants.
- People are lining up to fight Mayweather, but no one wanted to get in the ring with Roy in his prime.

What you say has a lot of truth, but some people will never understand it.

negged for having nothing usefull to say ...

lol, as opposed to the rest of the posts in this thread?

would have taken 2 seconds to post a list of these 'writers' claiming Jones ducked Calzaghe in the late 90's, if they existed of course.

Also, more research needed, Marquez was offered the Hamed fight, circa the Bungu/Sanchez fights, turned it down. Management claimed he wasn't ready.

As for Jones 'ducking' Hopkins...seriously, whats this guy smoking?

jones battered hopkins
