    You want a medal or something. You just proved you know nothing about the sport and not even realised it. Well done :good

    you might as well show us Ray Leonard against Hector Camacho. The video serves only to show how completely shot Jones was in that fight.

    or Holmes v Ali would be better.

    Just watch them near prime guys pound on ravaged shot greats, what a wonderful choice of videos to put up on the forum. Videos like this make grown men cry with empathy for shot warriors.

    I think the only thing that video clip shows you is that Joe Calzaghe likes to dance, whoop and laugh when he sees a crippled Ali or Jones are getting beaten up. he is a dickhead.

    Troll/**** thread. Not debatable.

    Calzaghe's hardcore fans have an enormous inferiority complex when it comes to realizing Joe only beat RJJ's rotten corpse.

    Throwing combos like this quickly is NOT real handspeed:

    This is REAL handspeed:

    General Forum Calzaghe ****wits, consider yourselves schooled on this issue. :smoke
     
  6. You can put in what ever version of Roy you want in there against Super Joe because if Joe's going to move like Neo from the Matrix there is nothing he can do.

    why would anyone need to move like Neo if they were facing shot to **** 40 year old Ali or Roy Jones?

    Even Neo wouldnt turn up for the fight, hes way too honourable to dance in front of oldies.

    This thread...

    It is just so horrible and yet I cannot look away. I am not sure if it's more amusing to read this under the assumption that people who promote Calzaghe's hand speed as being above Roy Jones Jr's are trolling or that they are serious. I would like to believe some people are taking the ****, and I can appreciate a good **** take. It's equally funny-- though it gnaws a little away at my soul every time, though-- when I encounter such stupidity that is purveyed with full honesty and seriousness.

    In the event this thread was meant to be serious, I would recommend watching prime Roy Jones Jr videos to anyone who thinks Calzaghe was remotely comparable to Roy Jones Jr in terms of hand speed. You will find yourself bewildered and amazed, as is the case when random_thread_9417471 shows up regarding the legendary reflexes and athleticism of Roy Jones Jr every other week.

    No. Just no. :-(

    Claz had very good handspeed, but Roy had the fastest hands I have ever seen (outside of maybe Meldrick Taylor).

    Additionally Roy's speed landed with skull crushing concussive power.

    End of discussion.

    you deduced ALL that from me writing an extra letter 'e' in Lacy, though I had spelt it right previously. So any lawyer who makes a spelling mistake by one letter nows nothing about the law. great deduction, HH.

    also, before we go, itsfunny that you countered my admitting my lack of knowledge by telling me I have a lack of knowledge.

    I was referring to the line about no one in the UK knowing about him in 2002. Just because you didnt doesnt mean the rest of us were in the same boat.
    I didnt notice the spelling mistake

    Truth. Even Joe himself admitted as much.

    lol rotten corpse, RJJ only 4 years older. JC with 2x as many amateur fights, started boxing at an earlier age, has more wars. LOL

    Calzaghe that fought jones was also shot to **** and did not belong at LHW, so there goes that excuse. Oh and who is still fighting today? That's what I thought
