    Nah there's no doubting the fortitude of a man who chased the champion oversea in the hope of securing a fight.

    From 02-10 jack fought and outclassed pretty much every top ten fighter.

    Question his title rein all you want, I sure do, but as a peak fighter he's easily one of the greatest in history.

    Ahh.. thanks for the transparency.

    JJ fought under pressures that Vitali could only read about. That said, JJ's worst criticism is his lack of consistency, not his toughness... that, and the era in which he fought but that is another issue.
