Roy Jones was an ATG but he was also a cherry picker

- - U ain't proved squat other than pulling non related miscellaneous junk out of space and trying to apply it to what I stated, ie proof here that Poppy never paid Dibella a 2mil civil settlement :

Plaintiff Lou DiBella sued defendant Bernard Hopkins, a former business associate, for libel. DiBella alleged that Hopkins made four libelous statements about him.

I'm sorry, you were saying something?

And did PEDs. Yall must've forgot!

Hopkins was not considered worth 'ducking' back then. Roy moved to 168 in November 94, a month before Hopkins was dropped twice in a draw with Mercado. But Roy somehow knew Hopkins was a future ATG and avoided the rematch nobody wanted to see by moving up?

Toney lost to Jones and then Toney moved up. He never fought at 168 again. So how was it Roy moving up to avoid a rematch with him? In 96 Roy moved up to 175, and 8 months later JT moves up to cruiserweight. So twice Toney left a division Roy had just entered. Where is your timeline coming from?

- - We already know of those two.

I would not call Round 9, early in the fight! As stated, B-level Griffin gave the unbeatable prime Roy a boxing lesson for the whole fight. That Roy choose to hit him on the ground, due to frustration of being shown-up for his lack of skill, is his own fault. Griffin showed that night that Roy's skills were overhyped, and were much less than his own. Sure, Roy deserves a bit of credit for catching Griffin cold in the rematch. Nash out.

- - Your mixing the first and 2nd fights together.

Montell very quick, short, and awkward a very difficult fighter, but the first ended early on what should've been a KO had Roy not got carried away, and the 2nd took a more composed Roy longer to break him down...you're welcome...

The first fight ended in round 9 with some unofficial cards having Montell Griffin ahead.

That's not "ending early."

Cherry picking was a constant in Roy's career. He was eventually out-cherry-picked by Calzaghe, who waited on Jones to get shopworn and KO'd, before daring to wet his Welsh toes.

It was actually Hopkins who kept pricing himself out of a rematch with Jones. He also hid out at 160 much longer than he should have to pad his record and break Monzon’s defense streak and avoid the best at 168, which was Jones at his peak.

Roy was criticized for not taking on challenges from Benn and Michalczewski, but in his defense they insisted the fight take place in Europe and Roy wasn’t having it.
