    Jones has fought the best that were available and made them all look like silly children. He was simply worlds appart from anybody in his time.

      true...but you can also say he beat griffin twice...**** the DQ...

      its just funny how montell griffin beats one of the greats in james toney TWICE, and then roy jones makes griffin look like an amateur TWICE (**** the DQ), and all of a sudden griffin was a nobody and roy jones ducks all the good fighters.

        How did RJJ make Griffin look like an amateur? Apparently you missed the fact that Griffin was winning at the time of the DQ not to mention the illegal punch that caused the KD to begin with.

          two of the judges had jones ahead when he got DQ. montell was still in the fight but was about to get tko anyway. there was no illegal punch that put griffin down, i dont think you've really seen the fight if you think that.

            Actually I've seen the fight a bunch of times, punching the back of the head is not legal. I don't think you've seen the fight.

              when did jones punch him in the back of the head?
              he hurt griffin and then griffin went down on his own, basicly just to take an 8 count to clear his head. your a serious hater if your saying there was a rabbit punch in that flurry,

                jones was behind on two of the judges scorecards but had he not been dq'd, the knockdown would have been scored and jones would be ahead or even on the judges cards. the scoring was 76-75 jones and 77-75/76-75 griffin. the new scores would have been 86-83(jones),85-85,85-84(jones).

                  rabbit punches ARE LEGAL as long as each fighter is in an offensive position and nobody is clenching....Jones-Montell is one example, Jirov-Mesi is another

                    Again.....you with your numbers, your title belts, & your rules.
                    I think you read about boxing, but never watch it.
                    You are not changing the stereotype of Eastern Euros as robots. You're a robot.

                      "Rabbit punches" are not legal.
                      But, what Roy hit Griffin with was not a rabbit punch.
                      A rabbit punch is like a chop, & it's INTENTIONALLY delivered to the back of a guy's head.
                      If you throw a right hand & inadvertantly catch him off the back of his head, you have not committed a foul.
