Roy Jones, Kostya Tszyu, Ricky Hatton

[jack_the_rippuh]

Thats ****ing bull****!

The reason why people like Tsyzu is because he's respectful, non trash talking and self confindent. He admits he was beaten the better man on the night.

Roy Jones has non respect for his opponents, talks as much trash as Mayweather and Toney together and has a huge ego, he thinks he's above everyone else. When he was beaten he kept making excuses.

I dont know why people get hung up on the skin colour issue, people hate fighters like Jones, Mayweather and Toney because they are *******s(even though i think they are funny), not because they are black.

Question - who doesnt like Big George Foreman?? He's self confident but doesnt have a massive ego, same with Evander Holyfield.

So I guess you despised Ali, also..

I love Jones, Mayweather, and Toney. I think people just get mad because they hate these fighters so much that they get mad that others love them. I love hearing James Toney run his mouth personally. He is a one man riot.

Clubber Lang, Thunderlips, and Apollo Creed were some of the best characters in Rocky because they were painted as villains, though Creed was always a fairly complex character.

I love the "bad guy." Usually, that is who I root for. That is why horror has a cult following. People don't care about the kids in the Freddy movies or Jason movies. They want to see Freddy and Jason wipe the floor with these annoying kids that look a lot like the people that used to bother us in high school.

Sometimes, just sometimes, it feels really good seeing Barbie and Ken get their just deserts. Don't you want to see the good guys lose sometimes? I do...almost all the time.

By your reasoning then YoungTurk you'd rather see some ******* who shoots his mouth off, has no respect, is arrogant, ignorant and couldn't give a **** about anyone get the rewards of winning over someone who is humble, has respect and actually deserves it!

Just so that you can get your kicks?!

Each to their own but it doesn't make any sense to me mate!

[repsa]

Skill does count for something too my friend. Roy Jones, James Toney, and Floyd Mayweather have also almost always been greatly more skilled than their opponents as well.

As Jack the Ripper said, you didn't like Ali?

[solo1bc]

Ali was humble when it mattered.. in life... And a ****y bastard when it mattered... in the ring!

How can you mention Mayweather & James Toney in the same sentence as Mohammed Ali?!

Your saying Ali was ignorant and couldn't give a **** about anyone? Nothing could be further from the truth!

What I took from your post about supporting the 'bad guy' is that you'd prefer someone like Tyson to win despite him pissing away 200 million dollars, raping some girl and biting peoples ears off!

lol...right. Jones is no where in their leagues when it comes to trash-talking and you cannot document it either, because I have been following all three of those fighters' words and those guys easily talk more **** than Jones. Jones talks good about himself without talking **** about others almost always.

Also, Jones is not an arrogant man. You know a man on TV and through the media, you don't KNOW the man. Many here in Pensacola do. Roy will sit down and have a convo with Joe Blow and listen to anyone about anything. He is not a blowhard in real life, whatever you think real life is.

Some of my friends have personally met Roy, and they have told me he is really a down to earth, cool guy. And also like superlightweight said, Mayweather and Toney talks much more trash than Roy.

Yeah, Tyson really ****d that **** at all. So did that white boyfriend of hers before Tyson. Cause **** victims brag about getting ****d the next night to their girlfriends. And **** victims go up to the World Champion's bedroom at 2 am to look at a stamp collection, not to ****. And **** victims go into a bathroom with a phone in it, lock the door, willingly remove their panties, then go back out into the room with the champ...to look at stamps, of course.



And you dumb ****er, clearly you don't know **** about boxing. What'd you do? Catch the Castillo vs. Corrales on a Free Showtime weekend or something, decide you'd pretend to like boxing for a couple weeks?

Muhammad Ali wasn't this beloved Teddy bear that you make him out to be. Not when that **** was going on live. White racist ****suckers like you tried to force him into a war he objected to fighting. He didn't do like George W. or Bill Clinton and dodge the draft. No, he took the tests and failed (probably on purpose but whatever). So they lowered their standards to match his EXACT scores, proving without a shadow of a doubt that they just wanted to send him to Vietnam to be killed.

Ali said **** that, **** your war, I'm not for it. He didn't run. He was a rich man, he could've gone overseas and fought anywhere in the world. No, he stood his time while White America ****ing hated him, called him names like "draft dodging nig" when he didn't even run. They took away his job, his way to earn a living. They humiliated him.

That's how beloved Muhammad Ali was back then.

No, over time he has become loved. There are many reasons. One is because of all the bull**** he went through with the Vietnam ****. Another is because he has Parkinson's Disease. Now, his legacy is remembered as great, but back then...he was just the World champ, which was good but not yet legendary.

No, Toney isn't going to be the next Ali, neither is Floyd Mayweather. For one, they don't have the mainstream exposure Ali had. Another, they're not heavyweights. Toney is now, but he's only able to exist as a legit heavyweight because of the ****ty state. At least that's the public's perception. They're not fighting in Africa in a match that goes beyond just the fight in the ring.

That isn't to say that one day Mayweather and Toney could and probably both will go down as legendary fighters. It might be twenty, thirty years before they start getting that sort of status.

Agreed...until you meet Roy you can't grasp how the man really is. I've worked in college and professional sports for several years and I've never met a professional athlete as gracious and catering to his fans as Roy Jones, Jr. I was really stunned to see how the man interacts with his fans. He does a lot for the community on the Gulf Coast as well.
