Roy Jones Jr better than Sugar Ray Robinson?

[SBleeder]

Usain Bolt's a better athlete than Robinson too. Is he a better boxer?

"Let's say Roy Jones speed and athleticism are superior to SRR"

It obviously is you would have to be blind not to see that, and the fact you wont even acknowlege that shows you are just trying to win an argument with sales type techniques, not discuss points objectively or openly and honestly. I will no longer reply to you.

The topic is - is RJJ better than SRR? You're stressing athleticism as if that is the end-all-be-all. As important as that is there's more to it than that. I'm certain that Michael Jordan was a better athlete than almost all of the single A ballplayers he was competing against. How well did he do? I'm certain he was a better athlete than most professional baseball players ... and yet there is more to playing professional baseball than athleticism.

The same holds true for boxing.

did you see these ones and how much speed does against a decidedly slower Antonio Tarver

[violaandme]

did you watch those Tarver III is the best seeing how he was just plain outboxed the whole 12 rounds but Tarver II shows you just need the one punch to change it all Tarver I is not to shabby either as far as speed being negated by skill and technique and when it comes to skill and Technique Tarver has nothing on SRR

Man you trolls need to step up your game. You are amusing me! You are meant to make me mad!

[likeamulekick]

yeh jones is faster but to say rays speed is slow and laughable is ridiculous. Just because hes not dancing around the ring doing tricks, throwing loads of awkward combinations, doesn't mean his actual punch speed is not fast.

[violaandme]

Troll what did you watch the much slower less athletic Tarver Arguably beat Jones not once not twice but arguably three times even if you go with actual wins thats 2 outta 3 buddy and he was still plenty faster and more athletic than Tarver shnit they are the same age if there is a troll here you know damn well its you if you don't know then well your a fool

Did tommo or spam hack your password or something cause you always seemed at least somewhat reasonably sane with your previous evaluations of fighters before the last 2 days or so

Lets clear one thing up a good big guy usually beats a good small guy and both these guys were very very good, so in a fight obviously Roy Jones smashes Ray Robinsion due to being not only bigger but faster and more powerful. It would be a slaughter. Thats a fact.

Now weve cleared the facts out of the way lets discuss who was better when it comes to p4p.

Roy went from very low weight classes all the way to heavyweight!

Roy totally dominated all other fighters, he had serious competition in Hopkins and James Toney etc who went on to do great things after too.

He was the fastest ever, the most athletically gifted fighter, his KO highlight reel is far more spectacular than Rays rather boring slow bland KO highlight reel. (in comparrison)

Who do you think was better p4p and why and by better I mean more effective as a fighter!?

I am convinced that prior to Roy losing a step, he was the greatest fighter that ever lived. Call it athleticism, natural ability or talent. Whater you like, I don't care but he was the most amazing fighter I've ever seen on tape or otherwise. Period.

The Jones vs Robinson Thread was done not even 2 months ago!!!!
This is a thread to "bother people" theres NO value in it its just to cause a problem.
These kids alexK and lickadic and tommo1 are only about internet argueing. They have NO lives on their own and have failed at school so their attention span is tiny!!!! Theres no reason for them to exist on this forum and why their tolerated is beyond me!

That being said I'll pop in & out as I see something interesting but to stop by on a daily routine isn't worth the trouble of reading garbage like this!!
Its a shame how these few kids have run down this section!! Ray Corso
