Classic how Steve Collin's was trying to say Roy Jones Jr ducked him and then Eubank started probing into why Collin's didn't fight Calzaghe. Eubank's a legend hahaha

Disagree, Collins went over tracked Roy down to his doorstep looking for that fight (Which Roy admits here) and Roy still ducked him. Roy then went on how there were other factors his promoters/manager. I understand why Collins was annoyed he tried hard to make that fight happen. I can understand why he didnt want Calzaghe then, he was prepared to take the stick of Calzaghe if the carrot of Jones was on offer. When it was clear he wasnt going to get Jones he didn't want Calzaghe. Calzaghe was risk with no reward.

The fact that none of them sound 'punchy' makes me happy although that knobhead Collins certainly doesn't! Eubank is just fantastic btw, what a guy, a hell of a good fighter too, loved watching Collins stumbling over his excuses lol!

I met Eubank once whilst wandering around Knightsbridge in London on a sightseeing weekend with my son. It was tossing down with rain and he had just came out of a church with a lady. I asked him politely for a photo and he said “One second, I just want to get this lady into a taxi that’s waiting for us”. I swear I thought he would just jump in the taxi with her and drive off, but after getting the lady into the taxi he walked back along to where we were in that pouring rain and got his photo taken with us. I’ll never forget that, he could have easily just dismissed us and disappeared but he didn’t. He had time for us and was a proper gentleman.

Instantly recognised him. Everyone else staring up to the departure boards. I got my phone out and amazingly he randomly veered in my direction. Stopped him, addressed him as Mr Eubank and asked if I could take a photo which he happily stopped to do. Thanked me and carried on. Top bloke.

Eubanks quote is a defeatist quote and he should never be able to become a Top Boxing Coach with such attitude. There are tons of Sports Stars, whether they are Boxers, Footballers etc, who aren't blessed with the Talent Eubank had but aspired to be better, and we're better because of their Inner and Self Beliefs and great honest hard graft and attitude . In other words, what chance does Boxer A have of beating Boxer B, if he doesn't believe it himself? I hope Chris Jnr doesn't take his advice or have such a low opinion of himself because he'll never make it to the very Top with such a negative attitude.

Collins was only beaten on points 3 times. "Collins stepped in as a substitute in a WBA middleweight title fight after Michael Watson was injured in training" he fought Mike McCallum the champion at the time "with the fight being close early on before McCallum started to tire as Collins gained momentum in the later stages to bring a close finish at the end of 12 exciting rounds. McCallum got the win by unanimous decision. His other losses were "In 1992, Collins lost a majority decision to Reggie Johnson in a closely contested slugfest for the vacant WBA middleweight title". "Collins then lost by split decision to Sumbu Kalambay for the European title in Italy". All of his only 3 losses were close and he was never knocked out, you are the good laugh.

japneet singh This really bugs me about attitudes to fighters. Apparently if you don’t go to USA your hiding and can’t travel and fight yet how many American fighters over the years step outside of the USA? For the record Calzaghe offered to fight RJJ but Roy priced himself out of the fight as did most of the top opposition when Calzaghe tried to arrange fights with them. His fitness, accuracy, durability, boxing ability, will to win & overall work rate is second to none. All the top guys knew how dangerous he was and that’s why they avoided him. People call Lacey a hype job because Calzaghe absolutely annihilated him and in doing so destroyed his self confidence as made him a shadow of his pre Calzaghe fight self. Looil what he did to Kessler also total domination and he too lost an edge after fighting Calzaghe. Look how the younger guys struggled against a weaker Kessler and that confirms how good Calzaghe was. Nigel Benn said he wouldn’t have beaten him and Chris Eubank confirms how hard he hits and how fast and only survived the fight so well because of Joes lack of experience at that time. All fighters have had poor nights and Joe has had his but all of these have been down to a broken left hand in rounds 1-3 yet he’s still one and with one handed combos. The worst fight he had was with that goon Robin Reid who gave a lifetime best performance against Calzaghe with one hand and going through a terrible divorce suffering depression and although close he did enough. That’s a champion right there and I think e would have adapted to RJJ and won on points by sheer volume because nobody has been as strong and quick as him in later rounds. He’s basically the same in R12 as he is in R1. It’s devastating

Anything can happen in boxing. The prime thing in boxing is a fallacy. Tony and Hopkins were the only 2 legit boxers on his record in his (prime). Not saying Jones is not one of the best to do it. But smoke everyone not necessarily. But tbh the only 2 I would give a fair chance to would be Calzaghe and Eubank.

@@Lukey111 Well, that’s not really what I said. I said that even Calzaghe knows that didn’t fight the real Roy Jones Jr. The guy he fought in 2008 was a shell of himself. He wasn’t confident, he didn’t have the same stamina, most importantly he’d lost some of his reflexes. Everyone knows this. Not to mention Jones is three years older, and he put his body through more than Calzaghe ever did. Calzaghe might have been at the end stages of his prime, but I can tell that he was still very close his prime. Guys who are out of their prime don’t throw that many punches. His feet were still moving, his stamina was still there. Jones was still the bigger puncher, but he couldn’t slip the punches the way he used to. He couldn’t move the way he used to. To me this fight was the modern day version of Rocky Marciano knocking out a graying, balding, Joe Louis who had come out of retirement to fight the champion. That’s why no real boxing historians regard Marciano as being Louis’ level despite beating him. Calzaghe was a great fighter, my eyes tell me that. But it’s very hard to assess how good he actually was because he did want to fight in America, which is basically the major leagues of boxing. It’s sort of like an American soccer player (footballer) deciding to stay in America and play. No matter how talented he is, the major leagues of soccer are in Europe. He isn’t going to get credit for dominating in America. Personally, I don’t think Calzaghe beats 168 pound Roy Jones Jr. That was the best weight class for Roy. Seeing what he did to James Toney, was eye opening. Calzaghe got dropped and hurt by a way past his prime Roy. I think Roy would have hurt him worse in his prime, maybe stopped him. Calzaghe has never been that hard to hit. Calzaghe would have missed more punches too on account of Roy’s reflexes, and that would have drained his energy and left him open to be countered by a quick fighter like Jones. I’m not saying the fight would be a complete wipeout, but I think Roy would be a solid favorite. That’s not disrespectful to Joe, that would probably be the case with any fighter challenging that version of Roy.

Roy Jones Jr was a one off. We won't see another like him again

right in a slick kind of way but Collins is all about being a straight up prick.

Joe is very humble as a real champion

Eubanks fought Calzaghe with just 11 days notice, and did so after Steven Collins withdrew from that fight and announced his retirement--relinquishing his WBO super-middleweight title. (That backdrop of information should be in the description).

My favourite fighter of these is Roy Jones jr. His skill, charisma, and the way he dismantled brilliant fighters gives me great pleasure. By the way I’m a Brit and I love Joe Calzaghe. Pete 🇬🇧

Joe Calzaghe, legend, quiet, relaxed, composed, no ego, no bragging, the real deal, the ultimate real deal. Class act. I remember watching Joe talking on telly, my mrs came in and said 'Who's that'', I replied 'Joe Calzaghe', great boxer and my mrs said ''He is too good looking to be a boxer'', it still makes me laugh to this day.
