Why do you think Roy Jones ducked Collins so bad?

Why is it a crap title ? its the truth British fans do overrate Nigel Benn/Chris Eubank. And degrade Steve Collins any chance they get. Not even many British fans know the kind of competition Steve Collins faced before he fought Nigel Benn/Chris Eubank.
Its the same with Michael Watson he beat Nigel Benn, but did he get the attention ? no he didn't and Nigel Benn was still getting the much bigger fights/pay days.
Another example of this but in the USA is Mike McCallum, he was very underrated and lived in the shadow of fighters like Marvin Hagler, Roberto Duran, ETC. And i personally think Mike McCallum could of beat any of the fab 4 at his best.
Steve Collins is Irish not British 
You don't need to put fighters down to "big up" other fighters.
You understand now why Roy Jones was so scared to face Collins, yes?
