I can't understand why people go off about Roy Jones record.

McCallum
Toney
Hopkins
Hill

Are all hall of famers top it off with good quality fighters like.

Montel Griffin
Reggie Johnson
Vinny Pazienza

And you have some solid wins there.

I agree man, Roy was a freak of nature in his prime. He just ran threw everyone. And in two months, he will have another win over future hall of famer Felix Trinidad. Sorry Tito, but you shouldnt have took this fight.

For real, Roy just made them look like nobodys. Kinda like Tyson did back in the 80's.

A prime Roy would give anyone trouble.

Plus Roy beat the likes of B-Hop and Toney, and many other good fighters.

I agree with all you guuys, even telesco was a tough sob, and clinton woods is now champ, he also beat tarver when he was weight drained and past his prime. He trully made champions look like nobodies.

Roy beat the **** outta everyone. He's way past his prime and still takin names and kickin ass.

Will Felix Trinidad will be a nice name on his record. Tito is hall of fame material. After Roy blasts Tito, he should get to fight one of the current "big boys".

I hope your right. After those two "very bad" knockouts, I was hoping he would just retire. Trinidad might have looked bad against Wright, but he can still punch and I wouldn't be surprised if he knocks out Roy. If I had to bet, it would be on Trinidad. I'm a much bigger Jones fan, so I hope your right.

Jones was great in his prime. I also don't know why people go off about his record. He beat fighters who were champions or would go on to be champions.
Montell Griffin, Antonio Tarver, Eric Harding, Hopkins, Toney. He made so many solid fighters of his era look ordinary that people were calling them subpar.
