    If you look around on the main page, there was an article about Jamaican fighter a couple of weeks ago. Is Emile Griffith Jamaican?

    Virgin Islands, I think!

    Which brings the question, who would win the battle of the virgin Islanders; Griffith vs Julian Jackson

    Emile Griffith wins. Jackson hit hard and if anyone could dent Griffith's chin it would be him but Griffith was so much better. He would rin Jackson up on the inside and outbox him on the outside. You also have to remember that Jackson had a shaky chin himself and Griffith had more than enough power to stop him. Griffith wins
