Prime Calzaghe vs Prime RJJ @168: who wins?

[Boxing Goat]

They're regurgitating what they've been told. Have no clue who these fighters are. I doubt soul survivor even ever heard of Malinga until today.

Malinga didn't beat Eubank, but I get the point.

[Dirk Diggler UK]

What's the argument in here now? Roy Jones KO'd Malinga who had a close fight with Eubank hence Roy KO's Sir Joseph.

Oh yeah just like Roy KO'd Gonzalez who beat Dariusz Michaelcweski hence Roy has a win over Dariusz as well

I think the argument was to respond to Roy Jones "Not doing much" outside of Hopkins and Toney. Of course, untrue.

And that his win over Malinga is better than quite a lot of Calzaghe's wins which again speaks volumes.

Calzaghe is a ****ing bum whose legacy was based around going life and earth with the Robin Reids' of this world and scraping by an old Hopkins and beating Roy Jones' 200 year old corpse. He has like 2 fucking wins on his resume which are worth something. I'm glad fellow British posters such as Irondan and Dan_cov can see Calzaghe for what he really

Prime Roy beats Calzaghe with ease. By far the most overrated fighter on these forums

[fight_professor]

Roy Jones would clown Calzaghe. 120-108 or a KO.

This is a silly comparison, RJJ is one of the very greatest fighters p4p ever when he was 168.

[Fr3$h]

Calzaghe is like any other European fighter -- surrounded by exaggerations. He starts off getting zero credit for anything in the US no matter what he does, then as a reaction, his fans start claiming he's far and away the GOAT.

The reality is of course somwhere in the middle that he was a very good fighter but not without flaws, tainted wins and goofy moments, like any other fighter.

RJJ... I rather see Bob Foster vs RJJ at 175

[TGD]

Big fan of Calzaghe, terrific fighter. Jones was a special in his prime and I would fancy him to decision Calzaghe.

[Awesome-O]

Jones by decision, 9-3 with a KD

[Ragnar Lothbrok]

that was a bad look by joe to be dropped by two 40 year old past prime boxers.
