BUT

Out of those listed fighters only Benn and Eubank and Eubank and Calzaghe fought each other and it must be mentioned that RJJ completely dominated a young James Toney and he beat Bernard Hopkins pretty easy too.

RJJ and Calzaghe are hard to compare because Roy was flashy and Joe is all business



After he went to LH I stopped being a RJJ fan...Fought to lousy comp and too many easy fights for me BUT>>>>>>>>> That doesn't take awa from how good he was...In his prime..He did dominate Toney...Hopkins tp be fair was not the same fighter he grew to be Jones had a lot more experience over all...But I can think of guys Jones could not beat in his prime...Since Super Middle was not around assuming he was at Middle IMO Hagler would beat a prime Jones...At LH a prime Michael Spinks could beat a prime Jones...Also Archie Moore or Bob Foster....Jones was great but there were better...Thats just my opp though..








Don't forget Billy Conn...The greatest LH of all time, bar none.

Jones was hella fast, but Joe C isn't exactly slow. He's a step slower than Jones, but Joe is faster than most of the guys Jones fought. And to that the fact Joe is WAY more skilled. That's I fight I would have liked to have seen. I wouldn't bet the fight in either direction.
