    Because most of NSB posters are ******ed, illogical, overly-emotional fanboys.

        Every fighter ages differently Larry. That's like comparing Ali at 35 to Floyd at 35......

          Ali has one of the best resumes ever and fought in best heavyweight division ever.

          Calzaghe and Jones fought in same era around same weight classes.

            Yes. But he wascomparing how Roy was at 37 to how Calzaghe was at 37, and every fighter ages differently. And I'm not even sure why he made that post in this thread???

            I don't care if anyone clowns anyone during a fight, who cares???

              If I'm not mistaken, Roy's opponent was undefeated at the time he clowned him.

              Everyone knows when Roy fought Joe, Roy was well passed his prime. Look at how Roy is moving against James Toney, then look how stationary he is against Joe. Night and day; two different fighters.

              BTW, who ever got mad at Joe for showboating against Jones? I know I didn't. Heck, Roy was showboating himself. No one ever got mad at that. It's just no one will really give Joe credit for that win because that wasn't the Roy that made Roy Jones a household name in there.

                  but this is ok

                  Simply put, no one cares about the showboating. They were both show boating, so why would anyone care?

                  It's just so obvious that Roy lost almost every quality that made him famous and one of the most elite fighters of all time by the time he fought Calzaghe.

                  THe only knock on Joe is that the Jones-Calzaghe fight wasn't made earlier in their careers.

                  Lol @ "people clowing Joe for showboating".
