    Against Sosa, yes. That stoppage was premature.

    Against Thorton...eh. Ref did Tony a favor. Isn't that the guy who said to Larry Merchant after the fight - when Larry asked him if he had any advice for future Roy Jones opponents responded, "Yeah...stay the hell away from him."

      Was the Sosa fight the one where he motioned to the ref to stop the fight and the ref didn't, so Jones went in and landed like 4 more punches, knocked the guy down and then the ref called it? That was crazy whatever fight that was.

          I think you're talking about the Vinny Paz fight.

            Ah, that's it. How come when you quoted me, the first letter of every word is capitalized?

              Jones had more POP on his shots

              Pavlik had more THUD

              Its a different type of power.. I'd go with Roy b/c he mixes it up with different angles to find openings..
              He was so ****in accurate

                No, not that fight. Terrible got it right, Bryan Brannon.
