    Competed? Yes. Jones NEVER fought someone with Joe's handspeed and work rate.

    Prime Jones took 6 rounds to get C Level Clinton Woods out of there. The Calzaghe that beat Eubank, KO's RJJ

    No Calzaghe is a bum with his most notable accomplishment being a terrible gifted decision over a 43 year old man that whipped him easy.

    Absolutely, yes.

    Joe Calzaghe would have beaten Roy Jones at any time.

    I bet Eubank is saying that because Jones is black
