    But Listen to this, no Bull ****, I met Nigel years later at my local Nightclub where he was DJ'ing and got talking boxing to him for a bit.
    I mentioned that it was a pitty a Jones fight never came off and do u know what he said? "Na im glad he'd have killed me!"
    And he was serious, he added he woulda fought anybody but now knew that Jones was on another level. Jones hadnt lost to Tarver at this point by the way. Very Honest i was impressed


    at least he was honest...nigel musta NOT forgot

        Don't think too much of what retired fighters have to say.

        Ali said in an interview with Mike Tyson (they were both on a talk show) that he was 'scared of Mike' and when asked what would happen if they fought Ali said that Tyson would knock him out. But does anyone really think that's what would have happened?

        Many fighters, when they are older and the virility/boastfulness of youth wears off they are more classy and give props to fighters and say this or that fighter would have beat them but in reality they're being modest and not giving themselves their due.
