Calzaghe talks Roy Jones back in 99

[IronDanHamza]

uh huh. eubank who had just lost to ray close, amaral, schommer, and collins twice was still a beast and a top 50 atg? interesting perspective.

Well, he went on to lose to Carl Thompson twice at Crusierweight so he must have been still good.

yeah he knocked out 2 bums after being dominated by collins in the rematch. he was still great. that proves it.

he was robbed in the first thompson fight. he was winning the second fight but his eye was bad. he was also robbed in the collins fight.

i can see why roy jones ducked eubank bitd. roys chin would've got smashed to pieces

I had heard about this interview, but I always thought it was made up. What fighter in their right mind would admit to such a thing?

floyd has for the last 6 years.

[Vasyl’s dad]

Yea am much as I like Joe C he made it clear he never wanted RJJ when he was in his prime, He gladly stayed at home until it was safe to take the challenge and make a lot of money abroad with BHop and RJJ, I alway thought Joe C would beat a prime RJJ but if the fighter himself doesn't really believe in himself then who am I to believe in him.

Remember? Or is that excuse only good for certain fighters?

if it makes money it makes sense! unless it makes too much money then it's senseless to fight! the great floyd mayweather at work.

taylor fought a better version of hopkins than calzaghe twice, prime winky, prime pavlik twice, prime abraham, and prime froch. calzaghe fought prime lacy(bum) and prime kessler and a whole load of tomato cans. you should give credit to taylor for being a fighter and taking risks unlike calzaghe. yeah he lost most of the time but at least he fought. you don't get credit for avoidance.

You do with some fans. I swear they would rather have their favorite fighter avoid challenges then take the risks and actually lose. That way their ideology is intact and they feel better.

roy was slightly past prime. eubank was still a beast when calzaghe fought him.

eubank is somewhere in the top 50 atg

Slightly past prime huh? Do you really believe that? I mean come on dude. I know people will say crazy things but come on. That's like saying Toney is slightly overweight or Calzaghe only defended against guys slightly out of the top ten.

That's like saying Manfredo only slightly came close to dying from that whirlwind of punches.

Or saying Calzaghe only slightly destroyed what would of been Tocker Pudwells HOF career.
