    Ummmm...is that a joke???

    Since Hopkins, RJJ has fought Toney haha, McCallum, Hill, Griffin, Johnson, Woods, Ruiz, won titles in 3 more divisions since Hopkins, cleared out the LHW division since Hopkins, etc.

    Jones won titles in multiple divisions in his prime. Jones fought HOFers in his prime. Jones fought champions in his prime.

    Calzaghe did not. Check the records... It's a matter of fact.

    YES, THEY BOTH FOUGHT BUMS...but from 1993-2003, Jones made 100 times the progress that Calzaghe did from 1997-2006...

    This is getting laughable...

    I love how none of the Calzaghe nuthuggers actually DEFEND him. They just talk **** about RJJ instead haha.

    I don't spin the resumes. I just state the facts.

    I really don't know anyone who would say that Calzaghe's resume overall is better than RJJ.

    I am not even a Calzaghe fan idiot.

    Roy's resume is mediocre just like Joe's is.

    :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl

    Yes, Calzaghe stepped up and fought one HOFer who was 43...WOW...

    I'm not talking about after 2006...

    I'm talking about for the first 9 YEARS that Calzaghe held the WBO title, who did he fight? Who did he look to unify with? etc...

    THANK YOU. It's obvious. I know Jones fought bums, but never for 9 straight years without expanding his titles within a division, titles outside a division, etc.

    Who's is better moron??? You really think they're equal? Is that what you're saying?


    Here are your choices:

    (A) Roy's was better
    (B) Calzaghe's was better
    (C) They are completely even

    (C)

    Plus, Roy was knocked out twice. Roy's whole resume is Hopkins, Toney, and Ruiz. Anytime John Ruiz is a big win for you your resume is a complete joke.

    Who cares if he was knocked out? He was obviously wayyyyyyyy over the hill or "shot" when he was knocked out...

    Who cares about how many losses Duran has???? What we care about is what he accomplished, most of all in his PRIME.

    If you want to look at it this way...Calzaghe beat Hopkins as an old man, and Kessler/Lacy in their "primes" (even though they were both completely untested at a top level).

    Jones beat a young Hopkins (pretty prime), and a Prime James Toney (HOF, ATG, FAT ASS haha).

    World Titles in 2 divisions for Calzaghe
    World Titles in 4 for Jones

    First man to in over 100 years to win a Heavyweight belt after winning a Middleweight belt for Jones.

    First man to ever spend 9 years defending a WBO belt and going after nothing else for Calzaghe.

    To be fair he only won The Ring title at Lt Heavy :deal And that whole mess with Tarver/Hopkins/Calzaghe is a circus act at Lt Heavy if you ask me.
