Roy would probably have.....

Won the fight if he would have just thrown punches. It was annoying to see him run around the ring. It looked to me like he just didnt want his last lost to be from a KO. This fight has made me drop RJJ from my top 10 All time p4p list cause I feel he went out like a punk. I mean when he let his hands go he was scoring but he just didnt do it enough. He also didnt fight in the 12th round it made me almost puke in disgust. I mean wouldnt you as a man fight your guts out even at the risk of getting KTFO so you can at least say I gave it my all and fought my heart out. Roy didnt show me that. Well anyway great career and I hope to see him ring side as a commentator.

2) So what that Tarver almost KO'd Roy? Tarver would have been KO'd himself had roy had the stamina he once displayed in younger years. Speculative. Not suprising though, as its all Jones fans have. They obviously can not use the FACTS in their arguments, becasue the FACTS are that Tarver beat Jones twice, and gave him all he could handle the time he lost.

1) Obviously Mayweatherfan misspoke. He obviously meant PRE-Ruiz Roy. 2) So what that Tarver almost KO'd Roy? Tarver would have been KO'd himself had roy had the stamina he once displayed in younger years. Dont get me wrong I think Roy is a great fighter. But he just plain punked out in this fight. He fought like a scared little bitch and the proof is in the puddin. Like I said he would have gotten mad respect win or lose if he would have just fought like a man instead of clowning around like a jack ass.

Tarver is a very good fighter, but i feel that the post Ruiz Jones would overwhelm him. I thought Tarver was hurt in the fifth and he was clearly out of gas in the last two rounds, but Jones just didnt let his hands go. Regardless, Tarver was the better man. 1 - the post ruiz jones is the guy tarver just beat 2 out 3 times 2 - tarver almost knocked roy the fuck out in the 11th when he was out of gas.

LMAO at comparing ALi Vs Holmes to Tarver vs Jones. Not even in the same league and it was very clear that the ali holmes fight should have never taken place. Are you serious?

1) tarver would have never made Roy afraid as a young man. Roy was too good and cocky. 2) I guess Ali is not on your top 10 p4p either because he got owned and hardly threw any punches vs larry holmes...right? it better be or we have a hypocrite among us. Over-reaction is not your friend. Roy Jones Jr: Tarver would have given me all I could handle in my best days as a light heavyweight. http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/showthread.php?t=48907

Could have should have would have it is too late he just wanted to avoid getting Koed and walk out of the ring on his own or he would have done more....It is very clear he is afraid of Tarver.
