    I've watched that thing a couple of times, think it was originally aired quite a few years ago. I've never ranked Steve Collins that highly, don't know why. He seems to be up his own ass big time. Makes out like Roy was running scared, but then retired rather than fight a green Calzaghe himself. Still to this day is in denial about ducking Joe. I liked how Chris Eubank held him to account for that.
    Eubank was hilarious on this, he had Collins raging.

    Imagine they had Benn in the studio...

      Eubank is certainly the treasure among fighters. His integrity has been boundless since day one - you can't beat him.

        Eubank Sr - Jones Jr would've been the ultimate match! Holy smokes, too much ability in one ring!

          Got to admire Collins stand up though, he said it to Roys face and would glove up then and there, so I give him credit for being a stand up guy, sometimes confidence can come across as arrogant and up your ass, could be a great guy when know him.

          I liked the format here I think they could do some good ones with a group of ex champs talking about the behind the scene things that the public never knew about at the time.

              That's because those guys were fighting on terrestrial tv with millions watching.
              By the time Calzaghe came, it was all sky sports.

                You’re brain dead.

                Roy Jones and Chris Eubank are not even in the same stratosphere as fighters.

                Roy Jones would beat Eubank with one hand tied behind his back.

                    Get a life you prat.

                    According to Jones himself, Eubank was the only guy he had reservations about facing and who he considered a risk.

                      In other words, provide a link showing that RJJ ''ducked'' Nunn...or maybe your definition of ''duck'' is different than mine ?
