I watched Ali vs Frazier 3 last night ive seen it before, but one thing that stood out to me was the lack of mobility in Ali. That fight reminded me of Jones vs Calzaghe, because when you are fighting a Calzgahe or a Joe Frazier the only thing Calzgahe/ Frazier have on their mind, for dealing with fighters like Ali and Jones is.......... they wanna get you outta the centre of the ring and get you backed up on the ropes, where they can get something done, now a prime Ali had the legs to offset Frazier a little bit, but that version of Ali took major major punishment on the ropes, because he had no legs at that stage of his career. I think its the same kinda scenario with Jones vs Calzaghe fight.

I'm sittin here watching some of my Roy career set and man, it's just wow lol. It's hard to believe anybody could be this good.

Jones was the truth in his prime, the man was utterly sick. I would have liked to see him seek out a true challenge in the late '90s instead of his mis-mandatories. Still, I never thought I'd see him beat in my lifetime.

Yeah and some of the binmen he fought went 12 rounds with him. The Bum called lou del Vel knocked down a prime Roy Jones in 1998. A worse version of of Hopkins than the one who fought Calzaghe won 4 of the last 8 rounds against Jones in 1993. Sure Jones looked like superman against the tomato cans he fought, any fight against a PRIME Calzaghe and PRIME Jones would have gone the distance.

Roy Jones Jr and Pernell Whitaker are the only fighters that leave me, with my mouth wide open there just simply awesome end of.

Too slow, what the **** you on about man?

The only reason he landed ANYTHING on Calzaghe is because he is still REALLY fast, not as quick as he was at his best, but still quicker than all other light-heavyweights atm.

There were points where he just wasn't plain quick enough to hit Joe. Joe dipped on him one time and smiled back at him for his effort. That really stood out for me.
