roy being ****y

[wmute]

Actually Roy didnt make B-Hop look that bad. Hopkins was never hurt in that fight and was always applying preasure, He was just outboxed by a prime Roy Jones. Hopkins had not entered his prime yet either. The truth of that fight was that it was boring as hell and if these guys fought again it would be even more boring because of the low output of punches these guys throw now.

you forgot to mention that hopkins was outboxed by a fighter who wsas using only his left hand for most of the fight

also, most ppl think roy jones prime is at 168 that fight happened at 160... I am joking what I wrote is just bs

just as hopkins not in his prime in 93 is bs!

how old was he? 28
did he ever lose a fight again? NO
was he ever embarassed again? NO
so when does his prime start? from the following fight?

simply he was beaten by a great unconventional fighter who happened to have a lot of movement, which is the only style that gives hop some slight problems, and punching from all angles, which does not help to.

More experience would have helped, maybe, but not that much bcos he would never have found someone to fight or to spar with, whose style was similar to roy jones (maybe hiring mosley as sparring partner would have done it, but give the size of shane at the time and the money he was making later this was not a possiblity)

ooops I forgot to mention that the fight was indeed a f-++-n' bore, like many of roy jones fights

I think Hopkins entered his prime from 95 onwards

I think Hopkins entered his prime from 95 onwards

I think hop never faced a middleweight nearly as good as he was from 95 onwards, but we are both in the realm of opinions

Toney

so when that fat blod toney beats one of these paper champs around like brewster or byrd or ruiz
he will have done the same thing roy did right?
middleweight that beat a heaveychamp

Toney won't win no title, his body can't pack the weight thus he's always injured
