        Frazier, Grant, Telesco, Kelly and Woods were hardly world famous when Jones fought them

              when frank warren's your promoter you can call out anyone with the security that you know the fight will never get made. jones ducks a guy not even in his division? hopkins is gonna leave hbo for showtime? you think showtime pays 3 million a fight? why don't you start using your brain or do you believe everything you read? you like believing unsubstantiated claims based on no facts that defy all logic and reason if it makes your favorite fighter look better. so gullible.

                  they were in his division. calzaghe wasn't. don't you always get mad when people like hopkins pick on smaller guys? now you wanted jones to do it. hypocrite.

                      But this works both ways, when Warren knocks Calzaghe you are more than willing to believe what he says. In fact you are always willing to believe anything against any Euro fighter.
