    Jones is one of the most magnificent legends in the history of the ring.

    Imagine what we would make of him if he had really gone for it.

    said it once, i'll say it again if he had made 3 fights, won them and retired after Ruiz, he'd be top 10 all time.

    1)Benn

    2)DM

    3)McClellan

    Throw in a Lennox Lewis win and he's top 3

    Jones in his prime is untouchable unbeatable period.....93 bhop maybe not the 2000 version but still a slick smart mofo

    lets see whether pacman can fight on through his thirties before mentioning him in the same breath

    No Roy would have also easily destroyed Calzaghe,i say the Calzaghe would have been stopped in just 3 rounds

    LEGEND

    Beat James Toney (168), Bernard Hopkins (160), John Ruiz (200+), Antonio Tarver (175)

    Still needed DM, rematch BHOP when Hopkins beat TITO

    Joe Calz, Tarver, Glen Johnson shouldn't hurt his legacy, he was a shell of his former self
