    :patsch Didn't Michalcsewski lose to Julio Gonzales? :rofl Enough said. RJJ beats those 3 on the same night. Prime Calzaghe would be the only one to last the distance and that's a big IF.

    Good question but I think most people would consider Jones' prime weight to be 168. Still unbeatable at 160 or 168 though...

    The default answer for most would be RJJ by a wide decision but I could definitely see RJJ struggling with someone like Chad...given his struggles with Tarver. I'd probably make prime RJJ the favorite but not a huge one at 175.

    Jones by KO. He was on another level from Dawson.

    It'd basically be a replay of the Hall fight.

    Prime Jones would have knocked Dawson out.

    Michalczewski lost at the end of his career but losing closely to Gonzalez when prime isnt as bad as losing to Johnson who Gonzalez beat :patsch

    Yes, especially in his earlier days there... He almost decapitated Griffin, and broke Virgil Hill's ribs with a single body shot.

    What the **** are you on about? This makes no sense.:huh

    Just goes to show you how shot Roy was when he fought Johnson... Johnson lost to a man Roy previously destroyed when he wasn't so shot.

    And how is losing to Gonzalez better than losing to Johnson... Didn't Johnson go on to unify the LHW title after he beat Roy? What did Gonzalez do?

    You also have to remember that Roy destroyed Gonzalez, made him look like a bum, who beat a faded DM. So I am not sure where you were going with all the losing to Gonzalez is better than losing to Johnson. That type of logic never works.

    Unify with who? Tarver and Johnson gave up their World titles before their fight.
    Gonzalez well he lost to Erdei

    RJJ in a casual, easygoing walk.

    I have RJJ top 10 ATG. Threads about how he would do against this guy or that guy are pointless, unless you're talking about other historical ATG fighters. At SMW it's even pointless to talk about that. He's the best there ever was.
