      Benn KO'd Doug DeWitt (who went the distance with a Prime Hearns) in DeWitt's own backyard. Benn TKO'd Iran Barkley (who beat Hearns twice) in the 1st-round in Las Vegas. Benn KO'd Robbie Sims (who beat Duran) and it was the first time Sims had been KO'd in his career. Benn was a two-weight World champion who won his World titles away from home. Benn made 10 defences of his WBC title that he held for 5 years, and 5 years after he retired the title had changed hands 10 times. Benn would of murdered you in a fight you fool!

      Eubank went 45-0, he was a two-weight World champion, he beat Benn, and Roy Jones admitted that Eubank would of caused him problems. Eubank would of gave Roy Jones fits and it would of certainly been Jones Jr's most difficult fight. That guy Eubank had a lot going for him.

      Your nothing more than a Brit-hater, and a childish Roy Jones nut-hugger.

      You will never walk alone

        Was Montell Griffin better than Eubank? Nowhere near. Griffin gave Jones Jr problems..

        Was Jorge Castro better than Eubank? Nowhere near. Castro gave Jones Jr problems..
        I'll say what I like.
        Triangle theories don't work in boxing. However, using that logic, Jones Jr owned Malinga. Eubank struggled against Malinga. Jones OWNS Eubank.
        I saw enough of Eubank. To think that he beats Jones Jr is ridiculous.

              Are you English by any chance?

              You seem a tad obsessed with Chris Eubank.

              It's taken me 7 years of posting on boxing to be called a nut hugger. Congratulations.

                If Johnson and Tarver could KO Jones Jr then Eubank certainly could also - if he caught him. Eubank had a nasty right hand when he used it in full force (very rarely), and Eubank was a dangerous fighter with his back to the wall. Jones Jr respects him more than you so what does that tell you? - Your a childish nut-hugger.

                Jones Jr beats the WORLD all on the same night, there is NO chance that he can fail! He IS God afterall! Looking good against the likes of Antoine Byrd rather than fighting a top 10 fighter (let alone a top 3 fighter) is what it's all about, man!
                You do realise that Jones fought these guys as a 35 year old, at 175? And you are talking about Jones fighting Eubank as a 25 year old at 168?
                Do you actually watch boxing? Probably not, so I suggest you go back & have a look at some of Jones' fights at 168.

                    I've never much like Roy Jones, boxing's favourite protagonist. Many people will agree that to be considered a Legend, you have to beat great fighters. Muhammad Ali defeated Joe Frazier, George Foreman and Sonny Liston. Roy Jones didn’t have a Frazier to bring credibility to all his hype. Further, at his prime he avoided the only fighter who threatened his throne, that being Dariusz Michalczewski, who was the best "other" light heavyweight in the world at that time. The poor state of the light heavy division, combined with Roy's picking and choosing safe opponents rather than fighting worthier foe, robbed him of potential legend status.

                    Did he fight top ten guys, Yes. His Lengend will be his overall athletisism and multiple championships. But, he strangley spent most of his time at LHeavy without creating the legacy of other boxing Legends.

                      What are you talking about?? If Jones Jr's chin was weak at the end of his career, then it was weak earlier on also. That's why he picked his opponents carefully. He is the most over-rated fighter that has ever laced boxing gloves.
                      My god, you are a clown. The history of boxing is littered with fighters getting stopped late in their careers, having not been stopped earlier. Sometimes they can be just plain worn down, sometimes their reflexes are gone, sometime's they lose their ability to take a punch.

                      Jake Rodriguez went the full 10 rounds with Felix Trinidad, early in his career.
                      Jake Rodriguez gets knocked out cold, by one punch, by the 'great' Ramil Mercado, who was 9-8 at the time, and 8 pounds lighter than Jake.
                      Do you think Jake's chin was as good then as it was at the start of his career? Absurd.
                      In his words, he lost his ability to take a punch in the Tszyu fight (down 6 times), and lost his last 5 fights by KO.

                      Nobody could even LAND on Jones back in the mid 90's.

                      Do yourself a favour & watch some of his fights.
