He was so talented,i think people forget how talented he actually was,he had so much skills

[Steelhammer86]

Yes, he was very talented. It doesn't make sense that some people deny it.

Yeh its because of the Tarver knock out,i think the weight was the downfall for Jones,but regardless,he was one of the best

[Technical_Skill]

Jones is the best fighter of this Generation just gone, by far, in his prime he was untouchable, there isnt one fighter in our era i would pick against jones from 160-175.

And yes he probably was the most gifted athlete, the guy used to play basketball before world title fights, do all kinds of dances and shuffles in the ring, rap on the way to the ring.

lol, He's definatley missed,

showtime you know you need roy jones, we know you need roy jones, roy jones knows you need roy jones, sign him up.

[THE REAL NINJA]

I bet Bo Jackson would have been a hell of a boxer ....


Oh yeah Roy Jones might have been the best....

Ed 2 tall Jones should have stuck around a bit longer ....

I wonder if Jamal Mashburn's dad was a good athlete ....

Grant long's brother is prob better at basketball...

[brian99]

Yea, he's probably the most athletic boxer of our generation, and probably the best too. He clearly beat a prime bernard hopkins and owned his division. The tarver fights late in his career dont hurt him much in my mind.
