Why did Roy never fight someone who could test his glass jaw?

1)Yes i also think Benn won the second fight against eubank, that doesn't ever equal a win against roy jones thoughBenn was a lot better fighter post Eubank & Watson he learned a lot from those fights & IMO beat Eubank in the 2nd fight
I would favour Jones in this fight however unlike yourself i do not think it is gosepel that Jones beats Benn
it is ridiculous how people seem to think Roy didnt needed to fight Collins,Benn ,Eubank ,Darius, Nunn ,Hopkins & Toney again because he was the best fighter in the world ,so he dont even have to share a ring with these fighters cause it is dead cert that Roy would have beaten all
should i remind the RJJ nuthuggers that he was outboxed by Montell Griffin
& i dare say nobody expected Griffin to be outboxing him & Griffin didnt have lightening speed
and u can make all the excuses u want for Roy but there is no reason why he should nt have faced people like Nunn yet he found the time to beat the likes of Frazier ,kelly ,hall,telesco,lucas LMFAO
2)Please dont ever mention Steve collins in the same breath as roy jones
3) Give jones credit, he beat hopkins and a prime toney, id have to pick him over michael Nunn for style reasons, but im no expert on nunn.
4)Has it ever entered peoples minds that some fighters didnt actually wanna fight roy jones? toney till this day has no problems with the loss and hopkins has been ducking a jones rematch under the guise of a 60/40 split for years, when jones said he'd fight hopkins again, hopkins didnt wanna know. Jones's resume isnt spectacular, but he has some nice names on his record.
5)Montel griffin couldnt go 2 rounds or summin on the rematch with Jones.
6) Jones didnt just beat the majority of his opponents, He dominated them, Benn wanted nothing to do with toney, RJJ handled him in his prime (weight loss or not) Even in the Mc clenann fight Benn was in serious trouble, Watson stopped him, Collins ended his carrer, did anyone of those boxers have Roy Jones's talent?
7) You gotta look at strengths and weaknesses, name me one Strength Benn eubank, Collins and Hopkins had over Jones:
speed? Never,
Power, No,
Skills? No,
Defense, No
Therefore why would they have anything more than a punchers chance against him? no one knows for sure, and styles make fights, but in reality they didnt have the style for Jones imoLast edited by Technical_Skill; 01-07-2008, 03:40 PM.Comment

regardless how strongly u believe Roy would have beaten these fighters it dont make it so that he would have u just cause u say so ,i dont know about u but i would rather have seen Roy demonstrate his superiority by beating them rather than fighing bums like Kelly,Lucas,Hall , & just claim that he would have done regardless
if u think RJJ resume is short on Top quality fighters post Toney & Hopkins because they were all ducking him or they were asking for to much money then u are deluded or very naive or both
wakey wakey son
Nunn was apparently shot then why did Roy not fight him he found the time to beat ,Hall ,Lucas,Kelly,Frazier ,etc yet claimed why would he fight someone like Nunn Who had so many losses on his record LOLComment
You're really reaching now....... Ever see the rematch?
