    thats kl, everyone has they're opinions, i really do belive jones can and will win this fight, But its how he turns up on the night. I hope he has still got heart and wants to win, if he goes in there for a pay check he will loose alot of fans. if he goes in there and gives it his all then no matter what happens ill just be happy he gave it all he could. My favourite boxer, and stuck by him when tarver knocked him out. Alot of people just moved onto new boxers. I want this to be his final fight and for him to go out as a champ like he deserves.
    Thats ok mate,Oh and i don't think he will be totally out fought in this fight!
    And like i have said i ain't a great subscriber of the calzaghe style ,but as a boxing fan i will show his achievements respect ! how can i not!? with so many title defences etc etc
    Although i respect calzaghe, Roy Jones,Nigel Benn,naz were my fav fighters of that time !

      Who else was at James Toney's level at that time? Toney was considered one of the three best in the world, no other middle to light heavyweight (aside from Roy) was ranked pound for pound.

            Toney got a lesson from RJ. Was a very boring fight though.
