    WTF has amateur boxing got to do with world title fights in the paid ranks?

    Answer.

    NOTHING unless you happen to be a Roy Jones apologist.

    I just look at like this look at Eubank Benn how many viewers did they pull back jn the day ? I dont know if that was on ppv but I heard somewhere up to what 18 million people watched that fight my numbers could be off on thay but I heard one of thier bouts did record breaking numbers and that was in the 90's a fight between Hatton and Mw say at Wembley in front of 50 k or more wouldn't do bigger numbers viewership wise ? Hatton being extremly popular fighting the best fighter p4p..

    Since Jones didn't fight Rocchigiani or Nunn I can understand why you have them where you do. You don't know, even though I think there are fighters that would and did Jones a harder time then they may have.

    Jones was to fight Rocchigiani in 1998, pretty sure he fought Grant on that date instead. Why it didn't happen, or why did it fall apart? I've heard two versions, so who knows.

    Michalczewski was the big miss at 175, though I think blame should be put on both fighters for it not happening.

    I have no interest in debating with childish Jones fanboys so I'll discuss with you.

    Did Dariusz try to get Jones name removed from all Universum shows?

    Did Jones try to force HBO to ban DM's name from being mentioned on their broadcasts?

    Did Seth Abrahams tell Jones to go fvck himself with such stupid and childish demands?

    Did the Murican fight audience say the fight they most wanted to see in 2002 was a Jones / DM fight?

    Did Michaelcewski try to chase a fight with Jones for 6 YEARS or didn't he?

    Expect ANY sources we post that goes against the fantasies of the resident ESB Jones fanboys association to be labelled as untrue.

    Jones fanboys are much like him, so crooked they couldn't lay in bed straight. The steroid cheating scumbag.

    Any corruption and I DO mean ANY corruption in boxing stems from the self styled " home of boxing "

    You guessed it:

    MURICA.

    It is not unheard of throughout boxing history to fight a month later... Was the mighty Guthrie too much to take on in a month? Or was it because Kohl didn't wan't to deal with King? According to Kohl, the fight wouldn't be made regardless because Guthie was a King fighter. So he vacated the belt.

    I said NATIONALITIES!!

    Maybe you should learn to read before you say anything about dumb.

    I added races because if you're dumb enough to lump peoples of the same nationality together, you're probably dumb enough to lump people of the same race together.

    All Americans are the same
    All blacks are the same
    All Asians are the same
    All men are the same.

    Its the same level of re****ation

    How do you think I can answer for someone else?
    What I did say was why would someone drop a title to move up and fight for less? Which you havent answered.
    Who were all of these tests and when are you referring that he should have moved up? Remember Jones was at HW before Calzaghe fought B Mitchell.
    Funny thing is, if Calzaghe had of moved up he would likely have still remained undefeated, but wouldnt have won all of the SMW titles and wouldnt be what he is today, which is the greatest SMW ever

    Guthrie wasn't a King fighter at that time. Kohl just thought he was because during the post-fight press conference he hadn't had time to look up Guthrie since he was all but unheard of.

    Kohl must have been mistaken then... Because he said he was and wouldn't deal with King.
