Roy Jones Jr.'s Legacy

[Dynamite Kid]

You know, 50% of the problem with you is you don't understand what I tell you, or why I tell you it. I can't argue with a guy that doesn't even understand my position.

Thats convenient isn't it.

I talk ****, and don't now nothing about boxing, because I am a complete turd of the highest order. I have my own forum, but it only has 2 members and one is me, and no one will register on my forum because I talk horse ****

At least we agree on something.

Reggie Johnson was over the hill against Jones. And Steve Collins fans would beg to differ on the outcome of that fight, albeit I thought Johnson won.

wow, reggies only losses before jones were all disputed(except his very first which i did'nt watch)
he without a doubt got robbed against toney(i thought he won that handily)
close fight against john jackson(according to th cards, did'nt watch)
two split decision loses against fernando castro(which roy jones walked right through)
and then loses EVERY round, getting knocked down twice and TOYED with against roy jones jr
his next lose is against antonio tarver, which came by another split decision

i dont care wht the **** you say cuz you got your head too far up your ass to be doin anything other than talkin ****, roy jones annihilated a very good fighter in reggie johnson, without breaking a sweat

Eubank had put Watson in a coma so he could not dominate Malinga with his Boxing skills? sounds like an excuses to me. Bottom line is he he won a SD whilst Jones knocked him out.

I dont think it matters that Benn lost to Malinga after the McClellan fight, Malinga handled him before that but got jobbed, once again Jones knocked Malinga out.

Well Steve Collins fans dont know how to score a fight because Reggie Johnson was giving it to Steve Collins by the end of that fight, infact he might have stopped him had it been a 15 round fight because he also hurt him towards the end.

He gets a pass because HARDING broke his rib, he did not enter the ring like that Harding broke his rib so he gets full credit for that, plus he was winning the fight anyway before Tarver went down.


Griffin got two gifts decision if you believe everything that comes through on the HBO telecast, but if you actually watch the fight without taking in all the BS Griffin won the first fight, he ring generaled James Toney. The second fight was debatable as i said but please!!! dont act like James Toney was robbed. I bet in 24 rounds neither Griffin nor Toney won many rounds decisively, that were the kind of fights they were, they were both low contact fights with little to choose between.

What a load of ****!... What are you trying to say?....

A fight is a fight, & if 2 guys have trained to punch through walls & break bones, it's hardly surprising is it!?

[RockyB]

I'd say Roy Jones is at least top 15, maybe 10 p4p.
its not easy finding guys that could beat him, especially not from his own era

[IMDAZED]

Top 15-25.

Phenomenal accomplishments and while he didn't fight everyone his resume is still excellent, probably underrated. A true ATG.

.........................I dont understand what your trying to say MM

[Leakbeak]

What he has done past his prime is about as relevant as Ali's fight with Burbick. RJJ is without doubt the p4p of his generation and the best fighter in this century so far. History will be kind to the king!

I like Floyd but he is p4p of the following generation, and not this century so far. His reflexes ae not as good as Roy's, and neither are his feakish natural qualities. RJJ was such a huge puncher too, even though he was reluctant to kill. Commentators (usually british) who say Floyd is most naturally talented fighter since Ray Leonard need a ****ing slap

This forum has got some good posters getting very personal.
Come on gentlemen you guys are better than that.
Be boring if we agreed on everything but politeness always will have me listening to your views even if I don't agree whereas I tune out on rudeness even if the poster is making a valid argument.

[Benncollinsaad]

The problem is that Jones never fought Michalczewski, Benn, Eubank or Collins. Without that, we can never know how great he was.
