After checking their records I must say DM's impressed me quite a bit and I also realize that RJJ's claim to greatness is definetely not based solely on his endeavors at 175 alone.
DM might have fought a couple of clubfighters but so did RJJ. DM also has some pretty good names on his record and RJJ's losses look pretty bad.
I think it's about even or a little plus to RJJ. I think it's rubbish if anyone says that their resumes are way apart because they are not. Remember this is only 175.

Common opponents:
Virgil Hill
Michalczewski UD 12
Jones KO 4
Notes: Hill was the unified WBA & IBF champion and the number 1 light heavyweight at the time he fought Michalczewski. He had not fought for a year and was coming off a loss to Michalczewski when he fought Roy Jones who KO'd him with a bodyshot.
Montell Griffin
Michalczewski TKO 4
Jones loss by DQ 9, win by KO1
Notes: Griffin was undefeated at the time he fought Jones and coming off two (controversial) wins over James Toney. Griffin was a top contender when he fought Michalzewski but he had recently lost a split decision to Eric Harding.
Richard Hall
Jones TKO 11 (referee stoppage)
Michalczewski TKO 11 (stopped due to swelling), TKO 10 (referee stoppage)
Notes: Jones dominated the interim WBA LHW champion Richard Hall from start to finish. Hall was coming off a loss to Jones when he fought Michalczewski but he put up a good effort and lost somewhat controversially two times.
Derrick Harmon
Roy Jones TKO 11 (corner stoppage)
Dariusz Michalczewski KO 9
Notes: Harmon had recently lost a split decision when he fought Roy Jones, nevertheless he had piled up a good record. After losing to Jones he went onto beat Glen Johnson and Tim Littles and lose a decision to Montell Griffin, then fought Michalczewski and was KO'd in the 9th round.
JC Gonzales
Roy Jones UD 12
Darius Michalczewski loss by SD
Notes: Gonzales was undefeated including a win over an undefeated Julian Letterlough when he fought Jones. Jones dominated him for 12 rounds but failed to finish him. Years later, coming off a majority decision win over Glen Johnson, he beat 48-0 Michalczewski by a split decision.Last edited by TheGreatA; 02-23-2009, 01:56 PM.
