    At MW. How would Jones handle a slick technician like Kalambay? Would Kalambay be able to trouble Jones with his defense, mobility, jab, and counterpunching skills? Or would Jones' superior power and speed be too much for a guy like Kalambay to make him look ordinary and win a decision or possible stoppage?
    Would have been a fascinating match up. One things for sure, it would not have ended up like Nunn-Kalambay.

    It's hard to go against Roy @ MW. I'd be more interested in seeing him face Nunn.

    This would be a great fight though.

    I know I am going against the grain here as kalambay is the favourite of those hipsters that shout the loudest but I think this is horrible horrible match up for kalambay .

    Jones by stoppage

    Well we're still beneficiaries of his wit, wisdom and scathing put downs over at another site that shall remain nameless.;)
