    He talked how Joe was a very underrated fighter and doesnt get the credit for his talent that he deserves.

    He said he beat a lot of Euro's, but a lot of very good solid credible fighters too... He thought Joes style, was very hard to beat.. and he said he always fought with heart, he was never willing to lose.

    He had a lot to say about Joe, but he liked Roy just as much... he liked them equally.

      I mean Joe is good and all, but he in the opinon of many could have lost to Hopkins, which while still defensive is not very offensive anymore. Personally It is pretty obvious that Joe loses to a younger fresher Hopkins, and Jones would just have been way to fast for him and tricky.

        I agree with you... Dan did say, he didnt think Joe could beat Roy in Roys prime, but that it would be close, and Joe would give him a fight.

        That's how he saw it though... I wasn't going to argue.

          But he did... thats what he said.

          He thought Joe was the greatest fighter of this generation.

              ok, im just saying i dont believe it...

              its nothing personal its just all the answers and conversation points by him seem so generic and made up.

              if you did actually talk to him then good for you, then im just an idiot

                    Damn kid. I'm all for bending the truth when it suits you but there comes a point when you can't bend something too far or it breaks.
