Lets just CLear something up, RJJ wouldnt have had any trouble with CALZAGHE...

wtf obviously roy would wipe the floor with him, he's too awkward?? he's a southpaw?? big deal??, ****in montell griffin was awkard, roy jones was out of this world, and as for southpaws, roys had his fair share of good southpaws, and it was'nt that big a differrence, he still dominated

until jones stunned montell, he was getting his ass kicked all night long in the first fight

[RisAri0]

Joe Calzaghe would given anybody trouble prime for prime. A young Joe's stamina is a nightmare for anyone. A prime Jones would have probably beat Calzaghe in a split decision.

Can we all agree on that?

No. A fight might have been a lot closer, but there's no reason Calzaghe couldn't have won it. Doesn't mean a prime Jones wouldn't have been favourite, though. It's irrelevant anyway, in the absence of a time machine, we'll never know. Those who say folks who think Calzaghe would have had a decent chance "don't know ****" are generally the same people who told us Lacy would "expose" JC, Kessler would "embarrass" him, Hopkins "school" him and so forth, and hence their opinions can be safely ignored as it is they who "don't know ****".

This fight was essentially agreed by Calzaghe and Jones themselves by cellphone, with a 50/50 purse split from the start. They both wanted to get it on to find out who was best, a 2008 Calzaghe or a 2008 Jones. It was Calzaghe.. end of story.

Montell Griffin is as good as Calzaghe now?

yea, actually, montell griffin was some ****in boxer back then, and what im sayin is, montell is probabley more unorthodox than calzaghe, he went downhill after the ko, but who does'nt go downhill after a ko?

[NAPO]

man US fans really get upset if UK fighters beat them.

[MikeBrew328]

Prime Jones would've hit him with so many right uppercuts and straights, Calzaghe woud freeze up. Look at the first and second rounds. After that Roy was done he doesn't have any stamina

[RichCCFC]

At the end of the day, you (Kball) thought Manfredo would beat Calzaghe

[squealpiggy]

Lennox Lewis? Ray Robinson? Roberto Duran? George Foreman? Joe Louis? Henry Armstrong?

Want someone current? How about Vic Darchynian, Manny Pacquiao, Israel Vasquez, Glen Johnson, Wladimir Klitschko?

[robjr]

harmon,johnson,harding,hall,frazier,grant,del valle,byrd.
