    Roy Jones Jr was an unstoppable force in his prime. Jones was in a different class back then.

    Roy Jones by brutal KO

    I don't know about the KO, JCs chin has always been solid, but I think that Jones would pretty much shut him out.

    Jones 116-112.

    Calzaghe steals some rounds by putting pressure on Jones, and Jones tries to carry his opponent for some unknown reason instead of completely shutting them out.

    Roy had some crazy speed and mad power in his shots and was very hard to hit in his prime, i can only see a 7th/8th KTFO win for Roy.

    Calzaghe would win if he used Ripped Fuel, he would throw over 2000 punches.

    A very green Calzaghe would be game but get stopped.

    Even by the end of 95 Joe only had a dozen or so fights under his belt, not enough experience to be mixing it with the likes of Jones.

    The Calzaghe from say the Lacy fight would give Jones of 95 a good fight though.

    1995?

    Are we supposed to be imagining that an 8-0 novice who has never seen the end of round two in a pro fight has somehow landed a title shot against the supermiddleweight world champion? Or that said world champion thought that beating James Toney was a tall order and for his next fight fancies a six or eight rounder at a British ice rink?

    The Roy Jones that fought James Toney and Vinny Pazienza at 168 would be as close to impossible to beat as you can get. He was simply incredible at 168 at that time in his career.
