    You could say Eubank jumped a whole weight class to duck RJJ


    Eubank was coming off 3 straight loses so yes clearly a Roy Jones fight was on the cards

        If Jones wasnt fighting Eubank when he was unbeaten all those years he wasnt fighting him when he brought nothing to the table.

        Roy at the time was P4P thats like Hatton losing 3/6 then getting a Pacquaio fight.

        Roy has always held Eubank in high esteem and has called him a great fighter numerous times. A Roy win would be in his top 3.

        At 160 or 168.

          Jones should have fought Benn. That would have been a great fight to see.

            Flawless are you just a general hater or do you just dislike British fighters or British people in general?

              Boxrec to the rescue.

              Point being that Eubank was at 168 while Jones was at 168. 175 doesnt come into it. When Jones was at 175, Eubank was almost finished his career.

              You could say that, but you'd be ******ed. Eubank had just lost to Calzaghe as you said. Why would Jones fight him then and not before?

                Eubank was almost finished his career right?? Calzaghe fought him while RJJ was at LHW. You saying Calzaghe best finished Eubank correct

                  Actually, considering who Jones was actually fighting at the time, he mightve been the perfect opponent for Roy.
