Tarver and Jones

He's neither so chill out and take a joke bud. just as long as you're joking.

I know you're a Roy Jones Jr. fan but if you think he's one of the greatest fighters of all time or one of the top fighters right now, you seriously do not need to be on these forums posting. I'm sorry but that's the truth of it. You can't honestly tell me you believe Roy is the #1 fighter of all time or one of the best right now. He's neither so chill out and take a joke bud.

You said other things too though. Like Roy #1 P4P, so I was agreeing to that. you think Roy Jones is the #1 p4p fighter now or of all time???? Either way you're an idiot so choose your poison.

you're not making any sense here. I said RJJ KO's Prince Babaloo Akinyele in 30 seconds, and you said you would agree with that if I wasn't being sarcastic. follow me? You said other things too though. Like Roy #1 P4P, so I was agreeing to that.

Did you thnik I would say i agree with you on everything EXCEPT so and so? That's not my style. :p you're not making any sense here. I said RJJ KO's Prince Babaloo Akinyele in 30 seconds, and you said you would agree with that if I wasn't being sarcastic. follow me?

then why did you say you'd agree with me if I wasn't being sarcastic? :confused: Did you thnik I would say i agree with you on everything EXCEPT so and so? That's not my style. :p

Lol no of course not. Maybe 30 seconds into a later round, but first round? Hell NO.. then why did you say you'd agree with me if I wasn't being sarcastic? :confused:

you think Roy can KO Prince Aji Babalon in 30 seconds? :confused: Lol no of course not. Maybe 30 seconds into a later round, but first round? Hell NO..

I'd agree with you, if you weren't being a sarcastic ass about it. :p you think Roy can KO Prince Aji Babalon in 30 seconds? :confused:

YALL MUSTA FA-GOT!! RJJ KO PRINCE Baba Aloha in 30 sec!!!! RJJ p4p #1 all time!!!!! I'd agree with you, if you weren't being a sarcastic ass about it. :p

YALL MUSTA FA-GOT!! RJJ KO PRINCE Baba Aloha in 30 sec!!!! RJJ p4p #1 all time!!!!!

But I do get the impression that Jones is more mentally shot than physically shot. That's exactly what I think.

roy lost that fight because he chose not to fight.. its as simple as that.. if they fought off the record like in a gym.. roy would pick apart tarver.. he was fighting to survive in the last fight.. and i dont know why hes still fighting..

Roy won the 1st narrowly, then got caught with a big left in the 2nd, even though he was winning up until that point. He has never been the same since and will never be the same again. He lost the 3rd because he seemed too scared to engage in case he got KO'd again. He appeared happy just to finish the fight on his feet. Roy pre Ruiz was a different fighter to any later incarnations.

Keep dreaming, Roy fans.

Tarver was able to hurt Roy with his right hook in their third fight. ....End of thread

He's asking if he could have with the proper effort, and I think absolutely in the third fight. When Roy threw punches and stayed in the middle of the ring in the third fight, he was simply in another class. But he did it so rarely that it didn't matter. But it was a window into what could have been. Roy is mentally defeated and has been since the second Tarver fight. Watch Round 5 (I believe it is) of Tarver-Jones 3. It was still there, he was just afraid to use it- like a mental block.

I think if he really went for it he would have won the 3rd fight . At the right place and time Roy would have beat Tarver this is more of a matter of Tarver picking the right time then him having Roy's number . With that said Tarver would have always been a hard fight for Jones because of his style and drive but a peek Roy is about as good as it gets, don't let this all fool you. tarver just hit his prime peek abilty at the same time as Roy was coming down from his, that is all this was .

How can u say that after watching all 3 performances? In the first fight Jones barely won because he never felt or knew how to deal with the pressure.It could have been a draw but I give him that. The second fight Tarver capitalized after his famous quote "You got any excuses tonight Roy". The third Roy just looked awful scared to throw and barely landing punches. How in the world can you see him winning? If the real Roy showed up 3 times and got beat up what makes you think anything will change?
