Pacquiao is impresive;Hopkins is BORING!-Roy Jones Jr.

[djtmal]

who the hell did hopkins beat before tito in 2001?

i tell you who he beat...a part-time fireman named bo james and the most distinguished list of nobodies ever assembled in the history of the middleweight division...

[WhoreUs]

naaah i know enough of roy....he did beat toney,bhop,griffin...........then what? the kevin kellys of the world............the LHW division during Roys reign wasnt exactly great too.........

you mention montell griffin but not mccallum and hill?

that explains enough to me.



and what does kevin kelley have to do with anything? did bernard want to fight him at 160 too?




roy jones jr. ruled a division with no greats and only a bunch of good fighters.

bernard hopkins ruled a division with no greats and also with only a bunch of good fighters.

the difference? roy jones was in a division where everyone was bigger than him. hopkins was in a division where most everyone was smaller than him.

He also has power over Hopkins. All those fighters you mentioned Roy fought past his prime, and Tarver came down from 200 pounds to fight Hopkins just like Roy came down from 200 to fight Tarver. In his prime Roy wiped the floor with fighters like Tarver and Glen Johnson. Calzaghe would have probably given him a fight in his prime but would have lost.

1) The weight drained excuse doesn't work for guys who are **** fighters like Tarver. Tarver fights the same weight drained or in great shape. Hopkins doesn't bring a big physical challenge, not strong, not powerful, not very fast. Hopkins, at 40 years old, whooped because he was MUCH MUCH more skilled, had better timing, technique and more ring IQ.
Plus Roy dropped down after a Heavyweight title fight, Tarver dropped down from a fight with 60 years old Rocky Balboa.

2)Would/ Could, etc... Those things don't mean anything. He got humiliated by them, PERIOD. I don't give a **** about what DeLa Hoya would have done to manny back then, he got whopped end of story.

This is going to be a big dirty **** stain on Hopkins' career.

But hey, everyone forgets in 10 years. RJJ calling Hopkins out gets twisted and in 10 years everyone thinks that Roy was ducking Hopkins.

Truth hurts?

Mccallum was past prime.............Hill was a good win..............BHOP was a gym rat it wasnt like he was draining himself to make MW......................

[Frank Martin]

Neither was ducking. Its just that they cant make agreement on the purse split.

[strugler]

Truth hurts?

yeah...............to those RJJ fans dissing other boxers.............for fighting part time sanitary officers.............
