    haha!!!! logical thinking here. roid rage caused him to hit a guy, in a boxing ring of all places. :roll: also, you say prime for prime, you'd give calzaghe a puncher's chance but at the same time talk about joe's bad hands. joe couldn't even stop a shot jones.

    here's the fact, calzaghe would have always beat jones because joe would have never stepped in the ring with jones anywhere near his prime.

    Even a beast like Roberto Duran, a serial killer in the ring if there ever was one, knew never to hit a downed oponnent.

    PEDS mess up with your head.

    Roy was juiced, and it made him out of control; the macho stuff, the dancing entrances, Mr Invincible....

    How do you get up in weight to HW like he did ?

    How stupid does he look now ?

    How stupid did he sound then ?

    Joe clearly carried shot Jones, probably by respect.

    A half drained Joe with still good hands twice knocked down iron chinned Eubank and nearly had him going for good twice.

    What would have done this Joe to Roy's glass chin in a close quarters battle ?

    The biggest fools are the ones who claim Joe threw a majority of illegal blows in the Hopkins fight.

    So lets get this right, Joe goes to the US fights a Yank in front of 3 fvcking Yank judges, and a Yank ref, and is allowed to continually hit Hopkins illegally?

    That is incredibly moronic even by American standards.

    Look at Calzaghe best wins

    Schooled Lacy, but so did Taylor and shot Jones.

    Taylor and Dawson did much better against old, past Hopkins than Calzaghe did (and didn't get dropped by the old man either lol). Pascal didn't do any worse in the first Hopkins fight than Calzaghe did.

    Kessler got totally dominated, schooled and beaten from pillar to post by Ward, were as Calzaghe struggled.

    Plenty of fighters could beat Calzaghe.
