      Does anyone else think RJJ went to the body more, after the Mike McCallum fight ? because RJJ respected Mike McCallum and i heard that he spent quite a bit of time after the fight with Mike McCallum. And Mike McCallum told him about the importance of body punching, did anyone else notice that or is that just my imagination ?

            I didn't know that about McCallum, it makes sense though that Roy would listen to someone like Mike McCallum when it comes to attacking the body etc.

            I love how McCallum would slip the jab and dig the left hook into the belly.

              Very true, although he KO'ed Wolfe (I think) with a bodyshot.

              But yeah, he wasn't really a body shot artist before that. Afterwards...wow. Remember what he did to Del Valle?

                Maaaan that video. Such a shame he fought on for as long as he has. He's been reduced to not even being able to really throw combos and too slow to hit the target in his last bout. Roy Jones. Too slow.

                    I think its actually in the Lou Del Valle fight that the commentator, mentions about RJJ spending time with Mike McCallum. I think its just before RJJ gets knocked down.

                      Classic moment. Jones goes down and gets up with a sheepish grin. Hell of a left by 'Honey Boy'.
