  • How was Roy Jones able to fight in the Heavyweight division at 193 lb ?

    Roy Jones was in the cruiserweight weight range when he defeated John Ruiz how did they let this fight go on ?

    The weight limit was still 190lbs when Roy fought Ruiz in March 2003. I think it changed to 200lbs in January 2004.

      There is no lower limit. You will never have a weigh in where one of the fighters is sent off to a McDonalds for 2 hours to make weight.

          Do you remember Norman Stone calling John “Roy” during that fight? Comedy gold man.

          I used to love that duo, I had a soft spot for John because of Norman, he was hilarious.

            Are you sure you're boxing fan or just trolling? It's because the heavyweight division doesn't have a weight limit. Any fighter can come in weighing in at a weight where they feel the most comfortable.

                The judges and referee would get called c***suckers regularly too.

                Stone was a legend man.

                  Is Norman Stone still alive?
                  I assume he must have died by either a heart attack or massive stroke. That guy made the Hulk look mild-mannered !
