So many boxers who were amazing in their prime and continued to fight longer than many said they "shoud" begin to fail because the gifts that made them great slip away.
Roy Jones Jr ALWAYS had a suspect chin, but despite it mopped the floor with lots of guys. He STILL has a suspect chin, and as a result has lost fights because of it, but his game is still there.
Ridiculous speed, awesome timing (if you don't believe it, watch him toy with Jeff Lacy), and good power (floor Calzaghe, and Tito). He's still got what made him great, and still has the faults that got in his way but he hasn't slipped or lost his talent like so many other great fighters who went past when they should.
Roy is the ****ING BOSS and he's gonna stomp Bernard.
Flush bombs? Ruiz did not land flush bombs, have you watched the ****ing fight? He got crushed.
Like I said his chin wasnt always bad

No he didnt always have a suspect chin. He took flush bombs from a heavyweight and didnt even blink.
