And since attitude and confidence do have an effect on reality, I think we'ed be having a very different conversation now. But then again, if frogs had wings they wouldn't bump their ass so much.
    Maybe if he fought John Ruiz with Jay Nady as the ref for every single one of his fights. But the fact of the matter is that Jones avoided the hardest hitters at the lighter divisions, so there is no way that he would have been able to handle someone like Vitali Klitschko who was his mandatory at the time that he vacated his belt at heavyweight.

      Agreed, I wasn't aware Vitali would have been his mandatory. Please excuse my imprecision.

            LOL, I don't know if we are on the same page here, but if you are talking about the show Forgive or Forget, that show was hilarious.

              Lennox Lewis was afraid of Jones, are you saying that Vitali wouldn't be?

                  That is true. Lewis was quite the timid wanker wasn't he.

                  I tell you what have you ever seen a really tall russian guy try to swat a fly that kept landing on his food and not be able to get it because he was too big and slow. Well I havn't either but that is how I imagine a Vitali vs. Jones fight going a few years ago.

                    Jones knew his limitations.
