    The Better Legacy For Rjj

    What goes down as a better win for Roy...Him beating Ruiz and being the heavyweight champion, but getting ko'd by tarver and Johnson as he did. Or him still being undefeated and beating Tarver and Glen johnson instead of being ko'd. But not going up to heavy and winning the title

      But for some people losses don't mean much it seems. He did something incredible in going up to heavy and winning the title. But i agree staying in his weight class and being un beaten would be much better. haha idiots would of said he stil didn't beat anybody i bet u

        Ruiz 4 sure coz if he had just beaten Tarver and Johnson they'd be viewed as more bums on the record - not so now!

          if he would have retired after the Ruiz fight, that would have been a great ending

            I second that!!!

            Or even after the 1st Tarver fight. To come down to 175 and become 175's champ again!!

              But Come on guys he didn't just lose he got brutally KOed !
              Your telling me the win over a mediocre Heavy like Ruiz means more than not getting Koed by a couple of bums !???
              I bet if you asked Jones which he prefer ,i bet i know what he'd say !?

                I Hear ya but he ihe 1st guy in 100 years to do it! Its a special achievement. And Ruiz as much as i hate him and he sux is not an easy guy to beat, he is still 1 of the better heavys.
                U can write the losses to those to off as bieng weight drained, if he beats Calzaghe - after all thats happened then there is ur storybook ending!

                  Beating Ruiz because nobody else will do that in a long time. Everyone knows he would have beaten Tarver and Johnson if he didn't move to Heavyweight so i don't see the point in fighting them when he can make history and do what he did.
