*Pacman legacy vs Roy Jones JR Legacy, debate inside... *

[nujabes77]

Roy Jones Jr. is a Floyder.

you crack me up chups lolz

[DonTaseMeBrah]

Cant wait to here the PAC stans get on me for this one...ok here it goes...Pacman is a great fighter with a great legacy but is it as great as superman? dont think so and here is why...

Interest: Roy Jones has been a star since he was 20 years old...I never even heard of Pac until the Marquez fights( which he lost both times)...Since you guys dont like defensive fighters I think roy is a great fighter too show you guys that Pac isnt the only one who can whack guys out...Roy went from middle weight to heavyweight lmao wht a stud....Add up roys ppv numbers vs pacs lmao i guarantee pac isnt even close...roy has been fighting on ppv since he was in diapers...biggest star next to dela hoya in the 90's 00's...

I was at jones calzaghe live not gonna lie it broke my heart but Roy is 40...we shall see if pacman is almost selling out msg when he is that old...o wait he is gonna be in politics...

Roy lost when he was old and proved he had more heart and determination then we ever thought he had by comming back time and time again too get back into the ring...i love it...he was great to watch when he won and great to watch when he lost...he was willing too die that night vs calzaghe (I was sitting in 500 dollar seats I would know)....I just think before we re- write the history books we need to understand that the guys pac fought were farrrrrrrrrrrrr over the hill...roy is taking on b-hop who is on the all the p4p lists so wht you say about that? when bhop loses 12ud then wht will we say?

credibility & thread failure.

I think you made a typo.

hopkins greater than jones greater than mayweather (resume wise)................................

Bhop > rjj > pbf

Prime RJJ>bhop>or=floyd mayweather
Bhop has a better resume than floyd but raw talent and ability to dominate his opponents over his career in his divisions goes to floyd.

yeah I think anybody could have fought more thats all I was getting at. There are fighters pac could have fought, mayweather could have fought, roy could have fought. Everytime there's a dominant fighter there resume takes a hit because they haven't fought everybody when its just not feasible.

I do feel Pac has pushed himself a little harder than Roy did tho. Its just that Roy was so good nobody has any idea how great he really was. Imagine Roys legacy if he had moved up to HW and beaten either Evander or Tyson. I dont know that he could have, but his legacy would be a lot better if he had.

but....BHOP can figure out floyd................it will be ugly.......but BHOP can take away all of floyds advantage.....in a match

I still dont think so. Hopkins and Jones are roughly the same size, but the people on Roys resume beat up the smaller fighters on Hopkins.

Good post. In his prime Roy showed unbeliveable skill and dominance. After his prime he has shown us heart, determination and love for the game. He is a true entertainer and he also tries to evolve the way boxing works by acting as his own promoter setting up a fight with Calzaghe who also was his own promoter. Apart from that he brought in to reality the idea of a purse split based on the outcome of the fight, something i think might do much good for the sport. Roy Jones has done much good for boxing and when he retires he will be truly missed.

Your completely new to boxing aren't you?

Lord, look up the Vitali Klitschko, Tomasz Adamek, Sergio Martinez, VIc Darchiniyan, Mikkel Kessler, Arthur Abraham, Lucian Bute, Ricky Hatton (better back when he fought Tszyu but w/e he's still ok just not elite), you already said Malignaggi

All GOOD white fighters some of them ae great or on the edge of greatness with a few more wins

i do like ricky hatton i will say that...but like i said im from north america...and in north america we have roy jones jr...dela hoya who i love also....tyson...and floyd...thats basically it

I still dont think so. Hopkins and Jones are roughly the same size, but the people on Roys resume beat up the smaller fighters on Hopkins.

is HAGLER better than/greater than SRL for you?...................few similarities in this analogy..................
