      You left out his steroid use and his refusing to fight Nunn.

      Jones never agreed to fight Collins, Collins was training for Calzaghe when he retired.

        I stand corrected, thank you. Also, I never heard that a Nunn fight was on the table, so thanks for that.

        I can see why people are underwhelmed with opponents like Glen Kelly. On the other hand, there were some good fighters around who were content to leave Roy alone or wait for the call rather than actively pursue it.

        I'm not going to defend him testing positive for steroids but I will point out that his opponent, Richard Hall, tested for the same substance and he won't be in any Hall of Fame.

        I certainly had my skepticism over Roy Jones but ultimately it's hard to imagine anyone beating him in his prime years.
        The guy was just too fast.

          Last 3 long time p4p guys I got him neck and neck with Pernell and soundly ahead of Floyd. Before he checked out of elite status he gutted out a win on Tarver 1 when he could have packed it in that sealed the deal
