One of my all time coveted pics...

How I wished this fight would have happened, would have been one for the ages.

Now THAT is a jab http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIa3-L1vOvI > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3kDC7bfvpc <

Not sure of the Sandman unless it was former 175 pounder Willie Edwards,. As far as Emmanuel goes... Roy was A LOT faster than Gerald....and I dont know of anybody that has that tape...I am pretty sure Emmanuel wasnt there. He didnt have Gerald at the time, either...Gerald fought out of Freeport, Illinois back then. A pro fight with those two would have been a careful match on RJ's part and realize this...if good boxers like Dennis Milton and Ralph Ward beat Gerald by decision what do u think would happened when an awesome boxer like RJ got in with him

Hey John, have you ever heard of a Middleweight or Super Middleweight from that era who called himself the Sandman? I met a guy who used to fight under Manny Steward, but his career was cut short due to some personal tragedies. He told me his name, butI couldn't remember it to look him up, but he did call himself the Sandman, and he was from the Midwest. Ever heard of him? He also told me that he sparred against Gerald McClellan and that he was the best fighter that he had ever seen, and he also said he sparred against Roy Jones when they were training for the Olympics.

Roy was against the ropes A LOT...but he fought back furiously. GREAT fight Do you think if they fought as pros it would have been a dog fight or more of a chess match?

Emanuel Steward says he has the Jones Jr-G Man amateur fight on tape. Could that be true? Drawing from it he thinks McClellan had the range, timing and heavy hands on top of his speed to beat Jones in pro. He says Jones was only marginally faster

Roy was against the ropes A LOT...but he fought back furiously. GREAT fight

Nice one, John.

I always hear it was sich a great fight, would you say it was really spectacular..

Yes, I was there... I talk about it in my book and I include a newspaper clip from the local paper (in Omaha) the day afterwards

Very nice sir. I remember another picture with these guys together. And have you seen their fight in the amateurs?

Sweet pic man wish it coulda been a little bigger, its good to see a healthy G_Mc>>
