    With a 66lb weight advantage. Like Jones always did. He did NOT fight any SHWs, Charr did.

    Try to find Jones on youtube, you´ll get a single fight including Holmes.

    For Charr on the other hand, you´ll find plenty.

    Without your Leroy Jones SHW agenda most of the users here wouldn´t even know Jones existed. What a joke.

    What's sad is Charr's HL reel doesn't make him look better than Leroy's losing effort to Larry.

    How many guys lost Weaver to before facing Jones? Is it more or less than 10?

    Well, and also everyone knows the historical boxing videos we all pass around and upload to youtube came from Obama, Simbros, and Tonez before social media took off and took over. If Obama didn't upload it it's probably not online.

    I kinda miss Ryan, he was alright.

    I have a hard time picking Charr over any fighter with a pulse. The much smaller Briedis dropped Charr into a crumbling heap.

    I agree. He’s a big guy, he’s game enough to take on top guys. I will give him that much. But he has been exposed badly each time. Briedis And Povetkin really demolished him.

    ANY footage of Jones winning a fight? No? Did he win any title?

    No problem. Here´s a video of H2H-god Mike Weaver picking one of his 18 losses:

    Charr is not a good fighter. I'll go with Jones here. Despite being a tub of lard, at least he could box a little

    I have to agree with your vote. Even Leroy Jones would win a belt today.
