    Finally, we can put the whole "He was coming down in weight" Nonsense to bed.

    Roy IN HIS PRIME was knocked out by the mediocre Tarver and the mediocre Johnson.

    Okay, cue plenty of responses filled with polemic and revisionist history.....
    This is like saying that Leonard had a ropey chin because he got hurt and stopped by Camacho and former LW not none for his power.

      Smarmy douche just got owned. Best not to try and correct people when you can't figure out the difference between "moot" and "mute".

      And to keep this topical: Joe's win over Roy means two things: Jack and ****.

            Maybe Jones did always have a glass jaw, i dont know. One thing i do know is that fighters reflexes go as they get older and the punches in Boxing that hurt you the most are the ones that you dont see. This might be why some older fighters lose a degree of their durability with age.

              Yeah, the thing is, I momentarily confused two similar sounding words whilst trying to type out a quick response..... you on the other hand can't grasp sarcasm, fuck-knuckle.

                Tarver might have gave roy a little trouble in his prime. kind of like how harding did. but roy would have won.

                glen johnson against roy at 26. LMAO. i'm sorry, no way.

                  Hark, is that rage? I think so.

                  Sarcasm? On the internet? No I got it, I was just reminded you that you are a douche.

                  You backfire on correcting people's grammar was pretty sad. I mean no one cares that you got two similar sounding words confused...unless it's during a smarmy response insulting how someone read your previous post innit?

                    I was very sad to see Roy lose again, but I maintain that at his best he was the best ever, which is why I am so angry when anyone says anything bad about him.

                      roy's style hasn't allowed for him to go on at an older age. bernard's style of fighting allows for him to be more successful at an older age. saying that everybody ages differently.
