    SUPERB point, well made. I could post Calzaghe up here knocking people out in the first or second round. When its ROY we are supposed to be amazed at his fabulous skills against NOBODIES, but when JOE fights NOBODIES they are not counted.
    Calzaghe getting knocked out by Roy Jones seems to be the common thread but EVERYONE seems to ignore the fact that Joes chin is one of the very best ever seen, and certainly better that Roys. If Roy had fought Joe when he had the chance, or Taylor or Hopkins for that matter, we would know for sure, but they dodged him, it wasnt the other way around.

    remember that the top americans wouldnt fight calzaghe either in Wales or America and waited for him to get to the end of HIS career it seems.

    whos been dodging who?

    Remember that pre-hand problems, Joe was knocking everyone out, just like,,,,urmmm RJJ.
    Not at all, find me a fight where Joe destroys quickly an opponent of Griffin or Hill caliber.

      Calzaghe vs Lacy is Joe's prime, IMO.

          you instantly notice Roy's feet, he's moving all over the place - not standing there and blocking..much like Ali - Berbick.

            Roy was a great fighter but Joe was even greater, it would be a hard fight but Joe would definetly pull through
            The man is undefeated, to compare Roy to Joe would be like comparing your mom's cooking with KFC. KFC would win everytime
            get off the ****in crack, PRIME Roy was damn near unbeatable, in his prime he hardly lost rounds, what do you think Roy wouldve done with Joe if Joe was trying to pressure him for 12 rounds, Id say 10-2 or a knock out for Roy

            and dont compare Joes speed with Roys, Roy's is real punches, no pitty pat paddy cake **** mixed with a hard punch or 2..

            Prime Roy was too fast, too much power, too quick for any version of Joe

              those pitty patter punches gave Roy his first ever career cut
              Dont underestimate the man's power, he is certainly a universal force to be recokned with

                  prime Jones has too much hand speed for Calzaghe and Calzaghe is too open i see Jones winning by decision Calzaghe would get hit to easy

                  people forget how quick Jones was back then check out the counter 1 2 he hits Reggie Johnson with in this vid

                    Yeah, that 1-2 Jones landed on Reggie was incredible.

                      In 93 wtf he wasn't even a super middleweight from what i recall.

                      Imo, Calzaghe would always give him a tough fight. If Bernard Hopkins could give Roy problems in his prime then sure as hell Calzaghe can.
