Roy Jones Jr and his "Greatness" ???

[Neuraxis]

You are not comparing DM to either Hagler or Hearns, are you??

Yes I was referring to DM as playing the part of Hagler. I see a resemblance.

heh heh!!!

Agreed it would probably end up something like Hagler vs. Hearns, and I think we all know who would be playing the part of Hearns.

forgetting for a second the blasphemy in the dm-hagler comparison...

I am wondering if you ever saw jones and hearns fight?

hearns and jones had very different styles (hearns all offense, roy jones, well... no ), I don't even know how you can think that jones would fight like hearns, he never did, and why would he do it against a ****er like DM?

NO he is not. He is using it as a example. 2 good fighters going at war but ended in a quick bout.


Thats the way i took what he said.



heres the facts Roy Jones Jr had skills/talent. He was great, but heres the problem he took a long route and fake number 1 contenders. I'll say this as a fan of roy jones jr, He did have LOTS of talent alot would say this, But he didnt push him self he didnt test his skill vs the hardest the strongest oppent in his era. Overall i look at jones jr as a fighter what he does how he moves thats how i rank jones jr.

Roy Jones is a great fighter. The last two fights when he lost to Tarver and Johnson were fixed.

I said that the ending would be like Hearns vs. Hagler with DM KOing RJJ. How about actually reading my post next time.

Well ... they both have two arms ... hmmm ....

I guess I must have missed the several times that DM lost in reality. Like I said before, he had one decision win from 1997-2005 which was against Hill which wasn't close at all.

I was referring to those other guys who had the great records and long reigns almost entirely due to friendly judges and promoters.

Their names escape me; maybe you can help me out.

I would imagine that one of them who you are talking about is Ottke, but I don't know who else you are talking about.
