    The Hopkins win is definitely a solid victory considering he moved up in weight and finally recovered from his air-sickness when Hopkins was safely 44 and looking terrible in his last fight against Wright. The RJJ fight was a pointless joke of a fight, please allow Calzaghe to explain why.

    Calzaghe was a joke. In his 43rd fight, he fought Peter Manfredo. Enough said.

    The Bhop fight could've gone either way and a win over Roy post 2004 doesn't count

    Hopkins was robbed & they pulled RJJ out of the retirement home for the fight.
    Calazaghe wad like a hyena, he spent 99% of his career fighting some shocking stiffs & when RJJ & Hopkins showed a bit of weakness he pounced, thing is even an old Hopkins had him beat & he refused the rematch & ran back to Wales.

    :-( Hopkins I'll give but Jones? Really??

    You've become a troll over the past several months...RJJ was shot to **** and you want people to acknowledge this as a good win? Lets be for real here.

    Remarkable achievement. It's one thing to jump weight divisions and beat ATGs back to back. Doing it in their own back yard is the cherry on the icing on the cake, it really is.

    Roy jone was not ranked in the top 10 lhw rankings nevermind elite at that time he was done. Joe gets no credit wat so ever for the jones fight. I give him a lil credit for hopkins but i think hopkins beat him it was very close so .
