    Even B-Hop in his prime HOLDS THE MIDDLEWEIGHT RECORD FOR FASTEST KO.

    Jorge Castro is another mofo that can bring the power.

    So could Virgil Hill..

    Jones took flush punches at heavyweight and wasn't fazed..

    You should stick to sucking Calzhage's **** and stay off topics that don't involve YOUR WELSH CHEW-TOY..LOL
    This is pretty much wrong. Roy took flush punches? I'm not sure I can remember too many instances of Roy taking flush punches in his prime. The KD against Del Valle shows that Roy has always had a bit of a weak chin. It may have been exaggerated by his weight drain after he went to HW but no doubt his speed and reflexes masked a pretty weak chin even when he was at his 100% best.

      Utter bollox. Toney and Hopkins have never been considered big KO punchers.

      Virgil Hill a big puncher?

      Come on.....

The man beat some good opponents.
        Yeah, the Reggie Johnson win was very impressive. Johnson was the only guy to ever score a legit knockdown against Toney and lost a split decision to him. This a PRIME Toney that was actually in shape for once. The way he dispatched Hill and Malingi was also good wins. Its easy to say Jones didn't fight anyone but these guys were truely talented and could have been champions in a different era.

          Try telling that to the mofos they knocked the **** out.

          James Tony could punch..I don't need some announcer to tell me otherwise.

          Hopkins in his prime was ruining guys.

          Virgil Hill certainly had enuff power to stop a guy with a supposed weak chin.

          To say Jones avoided big punchers or had a weak chin in his prime is boarderline ******ed.

            Lots of people can punch but they arent neccesarily punchers. None of these guys fall under this category.

            McClellan, Benn and Jackson definitely do.

              Naw chief.

              You can't mask a weak chin..if you believe that **** you should got to a Miley Cirus board.

              Ruiz made sweat Fly off Roy's head..You can't take shots from a heavyweight and have a weak chin.

                    Put it this way. Roy's biggest weakness has always been his chin. Even in his prime. It just barely ever got tested.
