    RJJ nodoubt... Calz has beated a bunch of good fighters, but none of the greats. RJJ would KO him within 6 at his prime.

    Wasn't RJJ vs Richie Woodhall enough to answer to this one, or even RJJ vs Clinton Woods?

    jones wins most of the times. but calzaghe can beat him, i'd say once in 3-4 fights. anyway, it's going the distance and it's competetive- no one knocks Calzaghe out at 168.

    I know it´s an "if", but IF Kessler dominates the SMW/LHW divisions for the next 4-6 years and he puts up some really great performances, then it will put Calzaghe´s win over Kessler into perspective.

    And I am not too sure about that "KO within 6"!!!

    Calzaghe has a very good chance to beat a prime Jones. Noone else could do it and Calzaghe´s swarmer stile, relentlessness and quick reflexes would trouble Jones every minute of the fight.

    Jones would get a UD between 4-6 rounds. Calzaghe would be competitive but Jones is a freak of nature and would be too good for anyone.

    No question, RJJ wins this by a wide UD, he won't knock Joe out because Joe has a good chin.
