Floyd Mayweather Jr: "I'll Never look like Roy Jones"

[robjr]

floyd aint got **** on roy.. never will.

[-Hyperion-]

You've obviously never seen that fight hops was on the Defensive all night which is primarily why he lost.

youre the one who hasnt seen it, bho was very aggressive in his prime and in this fight, sure he had moments where he didnt know what to do but everytime he saw an opportunity, he charged forward and was all over roy.....

[baya]

IMO, jones jr was always 2nd best to mayweather. mayweather's game is all about technical proficiency while roy's was just speed.

if mayweather lost a step, he'd still be just as good because of everything else he can do, roy was just fast as hell.

[tredh]

floyd hasn't accomplished anything compared to roy. roy beat a 44-0-2 prime james toney and won just about every round, he also beat a 26 year old b-hop. floyd has never faced anyone close to as good as those two and especially not in their primes. he beat a 34 year old oscar who fights once every 2 years. and that is his best win. those two fights alone point out how much better a prime roy was than a prime mayweather.

Your first sentence is bull****. That 26 year old b-hop was not a close to prime b-hop which is why when b-hop reached his prime Roy didn't give him a rematch. Yes I know money was the biggest factor as to why the fight didn't get made but it wasn't the only reason.

[Truth]

Truth, I'd like to ask you another question.

Victor Conte plead guilty and served jail time for distributing steroids. BALCO did not have any "legitimate" supplements. All of the athletes from BALCO in the other sports have been 'outed': Barry Bonds, Jason Giambi, Gary Sheffield, Tim Montgomery, Bill Romanowski, Kelli White, etc.

So, what were Shane Mosley and Roy Jones buying from BALCO?

Dude,

You are very naive. Very.

The most common excuse among guys who test positive is the "tainted supplement" defense.

Roy's testosterone level was several TIMES higher than it should have been. Traces of andro in a Ripped Fuel supplement do not elevate your testosterone that much.

My name on here is TRUTH but I don't know the truth about everything because I'm not God.lol. I'm just telling you what I know about the situation. ESPN reported that both Richard Hall and Roy Jones Jr. tested positive for Andro. I can get you think link if you want. I read that Andro is a steroid online(I can get a link for that too). And I read that it was available over the counter. So Roy's excuse seems possible at least. I have a question, if Roy is a juicer why was he never caught in the past? And if your response is that he was using roids with a masking agent, then why did he stop using them? Why would he take a chance of getting caught? Another question I have is do you have any legit sources that said Roy Jones Jr. baught roids from BALCO?

Jacob Hall said this, "Through his attorney, Jones admitted he had been taking an over-the-counter product called Ripped Fuel. That's not illegal but it is an anabolic steroid according to the IBF and other other sanctioning bodies. "-http://www.*************.net/news/stories/61774588.php

Bottomline is theres no definite answer if Roy Jones Jr. juiced on purpose or if he had been juicing his whole career. Its all what you want to believe...I don't know the answer. So I'm not saying your wrong necessarily, I'm just presenting the facts that I know about the situation.

[Truth]

You cant believe all the **** you read on the web. Like home boy below here thinks theres Andro in Ripped Fuel cuz he mighta seen it on the web. Andro is not a steroid, it's a natural chemical found in the body that produces testosterone. We all have it in our bodys.

Ripped Fuel is a thermogenic...worlds apart.



See above...

I read it was a steroid...

• "Roy Jones Jr. and Richard Hall both tested positive for the testosterone precursor androstenedione after Jones defeated Hall to retain his undisputed world light heavyweight championship in Indianapolis in 2000. Jones insisted his test was the result of ingesting the supplement Ripped Fuel. "

[Mr. Violence]

"Although Retired Floyd Mayweather still seems to have an opinion on everyone from Ricky Hatton to Roy Jones Junior, The current p4p King launched in to a scything attack on the Former p4p King, "Its like this Roy is 38 and he still thinks hes the best fighter in the world now im 30 and im retired i beat the best retired at the top of my game, Roy fell of in 2004 when Tarver koed him and up to then he beat up on police officers and dustbin men why does he think he can do anything now hes past it"

one eggplant hating on another. classic.

[niceguy45]

Atleast roy jones jr is entertaining. Floyd's just boring to watch

thank you, roy gets a lil boring at times but still entertains though, mayweather is just boring

[El Jesus]

the fight with roy and bhop was very defensive on both sides, neither hopkins nor jones did a whole lot of engaging while jones did a bit more than hopkins to win the fight, the fight is actually very boring.

Precisely why fights with the boys you mentioned are so damn interesting, I think your absolutely correct.

I agree also. I just hope the Hatton fight happens so he can show is skills. I have a feeling it won't happen due to money issues though.
