    Anyone who thinks that Benn, Eubank, or Collins woulda had a prayer against Jones is on angel dust. They wouldnt have had a prayer with TONEY, nevermind Jones.

    The smart money would be on Roy but some of you guys are writing off Benn and Eubank like they're nothing, Jones would beat them anytime 10/10, and that's just stupid.

    Both Benn and Eubank were world class in their primes, so dismissing them like they were simple 'belt holders' is far from the truth. RJJ would have beaten them both, but that man was something else altogether at his peak.

    Eubank against Jones at that time at LHW would've been interesting. Chris would've got by Michalczewski quite well. LHW was Eubank's ideal fighting weight.

    Points in answer to some of the posts here....

    1. Jones would have beaten Eubank.

    2. No way would he have knocked him out though.

    3. Benn and Eubank were CLEARLY world class fighters.

    You know nothing of the fighters obviously. True, Jones would have beaten all three but you clearly under-estimate them . My guess is you know nothing about them.
