    I wish RJJ would spar with better sparring partners

    Is it just me or were you too let down that RJJ was only sparring with local unknown wannabe hopefuls instead of having true contedors on the pay roll who best mimick Joe C's style of fighting or atleast someone who has the stamina to throw as many punches as Joe does per round???

        good point.

        ive seen him train hard in the past even sparred hard with some legit sparring partners. but the clip of him sparring with that blonde dude was like awwww man i hope thats not the level of opponent sparring partners that hes training with.

                He tried to spar Golden Johnson but fainted when Golden accepted. So since he couldnt get the best he just settled for the rest.

                  Is there a fighter in the world that could emulate Joe Calzaghe's style? Besides Golden Schlong but he ain't gonna be someone's sparring partner obviously.

                    I hope so. Roy Jones is no Bernard Hopkins.
