    Got to applaud Eubank for being honest. I would say RJJ is definitely suicide for almost anyone in his prime but James Toney isn't. Eubank and Benn would have competed with Toney back then even if they lost.

    Benn beat better guys in Gerald Mac and Barkley than Eubank. Those two wins rank above most if not all of Eubanks resume.

    Eubank is always honest about that era, also has stated a few times that Toney and Jones Jr 'avoided' him and Benn to an extent too which i also believe, he basically said the 4 of them didnt want to get beat by the other or something like that

    It's not negative, it's me saying that Calzaghe wouldn't even look alive against prime RJJ and everyone knows that. My post was regarding Eubank's comment, not you personally. Now troll away.

    Was he taking into account that Roy spent most of his prime on drugs?

    What are his thoughts on a fair fight?

    Toney would have destroyed Eubank and Benn with ease !

    , and its amazing to think that not long ago some moron was on here saying Toney ducked Benn and Eubank !
