People do not forget how great roy was

[BattlingNelson]

there wasnt a whole lot more roy could have done at the time.

I don't know about that. What I do know is that there's a bunch of deserving fighters Jones did not fight.

[SplitSecond]

Toney was the only prime fighter of those. With the possible exception of the great pazman of course.

i love how you never have any arguement, you can never answer any questions, you just hate because your a bitter ole' ****, have a goo day mate

[AKATheMack]

Apart from Toney and a green Hopkins, who just might be HOF'ers, who are the HOF'ers and ATG's you are talking about?

Hopkins is an ATG and Toney is first ballot HOF. McCallum, Griffin, Hill are all very good fighters. Add Reggie Johnson, Tarver and Ruiz. I mean seriously do I need to tell you which fighters were good fighters? You know. Julio Gonzales went on to beat Glen Johnson and Darius Michelaskiowski after Roy embarrassed him.

I dont think bernard changed very much from his fight with roy to his championship fights from later that decade.

[SOPH~ REP.]

I remember roy was the show,but don't remember any opponant of his that has equal skill besides the ones he lost to,tarver took his spirit,

[AKATheMack]

Are you telling me that Hopkins was prime?

Not one person considers 160 Roys best weight.

[deemo]

There is not one light heavyweight ever that I would have picked over jones in his prime.

Right. He sure won a lot of fantasy fights. Even more at 168.

toney and hopkins and mccallum were the only greats in jones era(around the weight classes), and he fought them

you should name these garbagemen, midgets and cabdrivers now nelson

McCallum was 40 when Jones fought him.

Hopkins was kinda green.

I think Toney and Virgil Hill were the best names on his resume.

His resume is pretty good, not spectacular.

Probably because he beat the 2nd best SMW ever by a wide margin.
