Give credit to Joe for exposing Lacy...but anyone who thinks Lacy was a great challenge needs to have a word with themselves. His recent fight with Hopkins wasn't tremendously convincing of his "greatness" either. IMO he at the very least fought to a draw in that fight. Against a 43 year old opponent who threw only one punch the entire fight (the straight right). So shockingly enough...you can argue that Joe's biggest win in his career (and by big i mean over a PRIME, well regarded opponent)...is Kessler. Kessler is a solid fighter...but by no means (at this point anyways) a pound 4 pound powerhouse. Is a Joe a bum of a fighter...of course not. Is he one of the most overhyped fighters in recent years...absolutely. And it's true...Roy Jones doesn't have the greatest resume either. But he beat a clear p4p champion in their prime in Toney...something Calzaghe never has done. But Roy's impact on the sport transcends his resume...for the pure fact that he is one of the most athletically gifted fighters the sport has seen.

    Just like you love it when tyson beat a well past it fat holmes?

    Or when tyson beat burbeck?

    Or when hopkins beat a blown up welterweight in trinidad or a blown up lightweight in de la hoya?

    Or when jones fought 30 of his fights against useless bums.

    I could go on and on.

    WHY THE FUK DID ROY JONES NOT ACCEPT TO FIGHT CALZAGHE YEARS AGO WHEN CALZAGHE ASKED HIM FOR THE FIGHT?

    WHY NOT?

    Any other fighter and it would be classes as avoiding or 'ducking'...ah but i forgot...its roy jones, the man who's skill looked awesome against the greatest opposition in history ruiz and tony right?

    WHY DID JONES NOT FIGHT CALZAGHE YEARS BACK WHEN THE OFFER WAS ON THE TABLE?

    WHATS THE EXCUSE ON THAT ONE?
    AT THE TIME of the offer - If Calzaghe had wanted Jones you get the fight by beating RJJ top contenders and calling him out , not by shouting from Wales. LOL
    HAHAHA yes RJJ p4p world number 1 , fights in USA for the most part , hmm hes going to leave America to come to the hotbed of world boxing Wales , to fight a guy with the WBO SM title , LOL GET FUCKING REAL.
