RJJ(Malinga fight) vs ben,eubank,calzaghe

This is just plain silly.


Anyway, Jones wasn't that impressive against a past-it Malinga, he struggled with his guard and had to resort to feints. Those highlights were the only highlights.

He became immense against Vinny Pazienza in an amazing display. That's when he became stupendously brilliant and truly frightening.

The Jones lead rights find Calzaghe every time, I think he stops Joe in four or five rounds.

A Benn fight would go three or four at the most, either way. Jones more likely to win.

A Eubank fight would be 12 rounds of difficulty on both parts, with Jones edging most of the rounds on workrate.

That's fighting each fresh.

As for all three in a single week, I think Benn would probably beat Jones on Wednesday. You can't mentally prepare for a fight with Benn in two days, having already mentally prepared for a big fight against a great fighter literally just goneby (against Calzaghe). The mental and emotional energy taken from a big fight occasion and build-up wouldn't allow Jones to then go straight into a fight with a man like Nigel Benn at anything too close to his sharpest.

By the time Eubank came along on the Friday, Jones would be vulnerable to being knocked out again, and Eubank isn't the kind of guy you wanna be knocked out from - because his knockouts were from power/technique rather than speed/timing/accuracy.

 

i say 50/50 with a prime Joe. the otheres RJJ blast them or Ud's them no problem

 

joe calzaghe would get stopped probabley in the first round, the guy has terrible defence, has been dropped and hurt by bums in his "prime", and roy jones was knocking out iron chinned fighters like nothin

 

Man in one form or another this thread never dies, I don`t know who are the bigger fanboys but RJJ fans at the moment are very defensive...here is my bit.

Eubank - Better fighter than Benn but doesn`t stand a chance against prime RJJ. Brutal beating.

Benn - Difficult to call. Benn takes him into a war. Obviously RJJ is the better fighter but Benn was a warrior, fearless, fought the best Italians in Italy, americans in America. Don`t recall JJ ever having to dig like Benn would make him. I go RJJ kock out in 10 rounds, but he fights the fight of his life.

Calzaghe - I don`t think any version of RJJ beats Calxaghe because I don`t see how RJJ wins. RJJ never beats Calzaghe on points. Never seen a fighter of Calzaghes size with a work rate like his. And RJJ speed doesn`t mean as much as Calzafghe was never hard to hit. He punched at really strange unusual angles but then stood in front of his opponent and still never got knocked out. It`s hard to hit a guy when he shoves his fist in your face every 2.5 seconds for 12 rounds. Easy points win.

 

PRIME RJ was "EXTRAORDINARY"

He wouldve beat all 3 men with EASE

 

roy jones has a disgracefull chin, all these 3 fighters would have found it. thats where the fights end with roys fragile mandable broken into a thousand pieces on the floor.

 

I think he beats them all, not in a single week though.

 

The Toney and Hopkins that Jones fought both hit harder than Calzaghe, he had no problems taking their shots.

Calzaghe's style was not the answer to a prime Jones. It would have been a good fight though. Jones would have won.

 

its difficult to bet against roy in any fight , but the man to beat him would be Benn , there was a certain night when he beat the leading middleweight Mclellen when he was unstoppable . If the fight was in the UK Benn wins in 10.
