    Agreed. Whitaker was an unbelievable talent. I don't like saying that anyone was more talented than he was but the fact is...Jones was.

    Is that an assertion Jones is so far above Whitaker, it's not debatable?

    I wonder how Whitaker would look beating garbagemen, school teachers & fire marshalls. He'd probably look much the same as he did beating elites such as Chavez, Nelson & Ramirez --- to the tune of 10-2, 12-0.

    What exactly are you contending, Sly? That Jones was a better fighter, or a more talented one?

    Just out of curiosity, what do you suppose your eyes might tell you if Ezz Charles, Michael Spinks or Archie Moore were fighting Jones' LHW competition?
