This isn't a thread to create any flaming. I was just too young in the 90's to be up on game. Which fights did he avoid? I've seen several post that he fought bums etc. I just want to know which fights should have been made with Roy in the 90's?
What fighters did Roy Jones duck in his prime?

McClellan claimed that Jones was ducking him at mw. Jones was Benn's mandatory for his smw belt, but he moved down to fight Hopkins for the vacant ibf belt if you can call that a duck.Comment

When you have a guy like Jones, I think people come to expect way more from him than others. The haters will point out several fighters- Benn, Michalczewski, etc... They will dismiss his victories against Hopkins, Toney, McCaullum, Ruiz, etc... Some people at the time said he was ducking Holyfield. The guy gets emotions up in people. It was a good run champ. Have fun fishing and raising chickens.Comment

Benn and Eubank were bad timing, he maybe would've fought McClellan had he beaten Benn and kept winning.
I think there were about 2 guys he didn't really want to fight, Frankie Liles and Michael Nunn, 2 lanky southpaws.Comment
