Roy jones a top 20 All time fighter?

[Cadillac Man]

NOPE...Wouldn't matter when he decided to retire!

[VirusTI]

Well, he is clearly better than pac... in every way...
Truth.

Duarn didn't hurt his rankings, why all of sudden RJJ did? He clearly wasn't the same, during and after the Tarver fight. I don't really know if he is Top 20

I do know B-Hop > RJJ

Sorry bro he beat b hop

In his prime he could have hung with anyone who ever laced up the gloves, but it was his athleticism that made him a great fighter. He never had great fundementals but his innate athletic ability allowed him to get away with certain flaws. Once middle age crept up on him and slowed his reflexes, however, he was lucky to be one of the top 20 fighters in his division, let alone all time.

HAHAHAHA...RJJ was one of the most gifted fighters as far as athleticsm no doubt but when his reflexes dulled he lacked the basic skills such as tucking your chin and keeping your hands up. His best wins were Toney and B-Hop, Pac's best wins were JMM,Barrera x2,Morales x2,DLH and Hatton. Pac's resume is better.

lol resume is all you got, you know that if P4p they can get into a ring pac would be seeing the stars by round 6

Agreed that Pac has the stronger resume, Roy wasted his prime blowing out little knowns while Pac has taken on most of the best fighters in and around his weight class.

Depends on how much you value the pre-WWII era boxers..... Some guys don't place much value on their accomplishments, while others tend to go overboard.....

I think Jones might sneak into the Post-WWII top 20, which is what he should be judged against.

[STILL_DETOX]

yes he is, he overcame adversity and beat felix trinidad when both of them were shot.

[The Gunner]

Roy shouldn't be mensioned with the top 20, its an insult to the greats of our sport.
