it doesn't matter that calzaghe turned out to be a pretty good fighter it matters what he was at the time and at the time he was considered a protected euro chump who only fought bums and got early stoppages. and ultimately that's his own fault and nobody elses. he could have made a name for himself but he waited till he was 34. blame him, blame his promoter but blaming roy jones is a cop out.Last edited by daggum; 03-14-2011, 06:38 PM.

Roy Jones was flashy, but he's very overrated by Americans.
Roy avoided top fighters like Joe Calzaghe and Dariusz M, and instead fought taxi drivers who he could look good against.

this is revisionist history at it's finest. I bet the TS and those supporting prob didn't even know who Calzaghe was at the supposed time Jones was ducking him. Do us all a favour and don't look left or right the next time you cross the road......this thread is bull****.

Originally posted by daggum View Postneither guy wanted the fight. roy might have been protected but compared to dariusz he was muhammad ali. dariusz got gifts against rochigiani, griffin, and hall to preserve his undefeated record. jones never had to rely on corrupt officials to win his fights.
underrated fighter. He has one legit win over James Toney and was giving Roy plenty to think about before the DQ. An awkward fighter.
