Not quite. Calzaghe BARELY beat Hopkins fighting at full steam (I scored it for B-Hop on the night). He just won 11 rounds vs Jones while...
Actually he averaged about 40 per round vs Joe which is his career average.
Agreed.
If Roy had tried to jump on him he would have gotten KO'd. And he knew it.
Well he's become a bit less repellent in the last year or so I think. Getting the credit he deserves seems to have mellowed him a bit....doesn't...
Yeah, I completely agree with you. But at this point I'd rate anyone in the top 10 of 168 or 175 above Jones.
Just because B-Hop beats your ass doesn't mean you aren't an elite fighter, especially when your fighting him 2 divisions north of your fighting...
Pavlik had a MUCH better chance of beating Joe than Roy. Still does. At the very least it would have been a meaningful fight between p4pers.
Lucky for Roy that Joe was so much more interested in an ego stroking attempt at out Jonesing Jones than in actually fighting an effective fight....
I was VERY impressed with Steve O'meara. Could see that kid reaching European level at least if things go smoothly.
Nah. Calzaghe's still one of the 5 best fighters in the world p4p. Jones aint even one of the top 10 Light heavyweights in the world at this...
Roy is 100 years old.
I wish Roy would lose the hobo beard!:notallthere: He looks like he stinks.
Jones really has taken on the look & vibe of a hobo the last couple years.
:lol::laughing::lol: 'One point...no hell, wait a minute TWO points!':bears: Great officiating.
:lol: Great post.
I thought the same, but i cant imagine he ever was.
As is the case 90% of the time on boxing matters, I agree with MWS. Exactly as I see it.
Tito was slow of foot and brain. But sensible people never had him No1. I suppose Chavez is probably the slowest guy to make it to No1, though he...
For once I agree with UGTBK. You can only judge fighters in their own weight class.
Wow, that was unbelievably sad. :(
If I had my way.... Any heavyweight who came in over 12% body fat would have his purse distributed among every person who paid to watch him and...
Yeah, it was a protest vote on most peoples part. Jones had fought NOBODY for about 4 years by that point. Shane had just become the first guy to...
you're a spazmataz.
At least as many had Tito No1 which was even more ridiculous.
All true....but bear in mind Tito's so plodding & clumsy he would make Ben Tackie look like Ray Leonard. Roy is 100 years old, dont let that fight...
As Jones & Toney already demonstrated, guys of B-Hops size and class have their way with Ruiz. They bend him over and give him the prison loving....
This is also a good point.:popcorn:
You guys talk as if B-Hop only has one style. He'd have 5 ways to beat a bum like Ruiz, he isn't gonna be beaten by a guy who's entire offense...
