    H2H Jones is 1, Joe is behind him

    Accomplishments. Its all Joe.


    Joe doesn't get the nod at 168 because Jones was a freak at 168, just a beast. LHW Power with Insane speed.

    I doubt it. Joe has the heart of a lion and a great chin. This one goes to the scorecards. Probally 8-4 Jones, maybe 7-5.

    Prime Roy wouldnt knock Joe out.
    He didnt knock Tony Or Hopkins out and I rank Calzaghe as good as either of them.

    Cazlaghe has the adapatability of Hopkins, with the speed of James Toney and an A+ chin.

    There's no way that he's knocking Joe out.

    Yes, he is the GOAT at Super Middleweight.

    how many champions has joe defeated in his career:rofl

    before roy moved to 175 he had defeated:

    Jorge Castro (WBA middleweight champion)
    Jorge Vaca (WBC welterweight champion)
    Bernanrd Hopkins (IBF Middleweight Champion)
    Thulani Malinga (WBC Super Middleweight Champion)
    James Toney (IBF Super Middleweight Champion)
    Vinnie Pazienza (WBA Light Middleweight Champion)
    Eric Lucas (WBC Super Middleweight Champion)

    I mean calzaghe has just faced an old eubank, limited lacy, and a pedestrian kessler:rofl 10 years undefeated and not one HOFer:hey

    roy was much better at 168 resume wise as well.

    Thats funny because Joe is the greatest fighter P4P all time. Maybe Mayweather should gain some weight so the two could fight at a catch weight.

    No problem for Joe. Joe would'nt even break a sweat. The best at 175 would cower after feeling a Smokin Joe Calzaghe shot. Did you forget Joe is the greatest fighter alltime! thread over:hi:

    Jones?.....are you talking about Roy Jones Jr because he was never a champion for 10 consecutive years. He won the IBF middleweight title in 93 but suffered his first defeat in 97 against Griffin. Jones didn't even make it 4 whole years as an undefeated champion.
