Is Roy Jones the biggest bum ever?

[jrosales13]

I love the lineal championship argument for roy.

Let me ask this question...

IF the WW division looked like this..

LINEAL CHAMPION: BALDOMIR
Shane Mosley
Miguel Cotto
Paul Williams


And Mayweather fought Shane, Cotto, and Williams... and never fought Baldomir for the lineal title... would anyone here have a problem with that?

But, Floyd would have already won 2 lineal championships in 2 different weightclass right? By the time he would get to WW? So of course I don't think anybody would have a problem if Floyd did not fight Baldomir. Now if Floyd would never have a won a lineal title. I would find that weird aswell.

SMASHED... really.

Dariusz michalq?hs\.' was the best fighter of his generation, would've ko'd roy jones, michal is an atg, dont put him in the same sentence as roy jones

The point being is, if Floyd cleared out the division, except for one guy who EQUALLY wouldnt try to make the fight happen... then I wouldnt see a big problem.

How many DM fights you seen?

From what I've watched Roy would have absolutely killed him.

DM's first loss was to a Jones left-over, Julio Cesar Gonzalez.

Not to mention Jones gave Gonzalez his first loss. About 2 or 3 years after Jones beats Gonzalez, Gonzalez gives DM his first loss.

What nobody sees here is that Gonzalez went on with his winning ways after Jones beat him going 8(5)-0 including wins over Dariusz Michalewjdghdjg and Glen Johnson and Gonzalez also became champion again, before losing.

I guess we can say IF for every fighter. IF Roy fought in the 80's, IF Roy was in his prime at SMW right now. I mean we can play the IF game I guess. But, I rather talk about what really happened.

At 175 I get it, DM did not want to leave Germany and Roy did not want to fight in Germany. Ok I get that excuse. At HW Lennox Lewis was just too big. Roy started at 154. Fine I get that excuse. Roy did not have that many fights at 154. Fine I get that excuse. But, really what was the excuse at 160 for not winning one? What was the excuse at 168 for not winning one? I mean bro not one? I mean is that not weird for a great fighter not win 1? What other ATG has never won one?
