        Jones Jr also beat Thulane Malinga who was a tough opponent.

        But he ducked many great fighters such as Benn, Eubank, McClellan, Rocchigiani and Michalczewski to name just a few.

        Toney is the biggest name on Jones Jr's record, but Toney weighed 212lbs 6 weeks before the fight! He had to get down to 168! When Toney was younger, at 160 in the early 90's, he'd of schooled Jones Jr.
        Toney was better at 168 than at 160.
        He had trouble making the 160 lb limit....& it showed in subpar performances against Tiberi, R. Johnson, & Glenn Wolfe.

        As for the guys you claimed he (Roy) ducked....
        He ducked none of them.
        He'd have slaughtered Benn & Eubank...made fools of Rocch & Michal.... & exposed McClellan for the homerun swinger he had eventually dwindled down to....

          • hmm

            Jones never ducked Eubank. Hell, in one of those interviews YOU posted up Eubank admits his disinterest in fighting Roy.

            Jones didn't duck Dariusz. Dariusz wanted to stay in Germany his whole career and that's fine I guess, but don't expect Roy to go over there with that BS German judging.

            Roy went to 175 for bigger guys and money. He didn't duck G-man or any of those guys.

            Benn ruined G-man in one fight with illegal punches. Maybe they would have fought or maybe not, but there was no "ducking".

            Toney's style is not good for beating Jones. Toney loses to Jones everytime they fight.

              good call, Roy wasn't about to do any international traveling after the Olympic disaster, and Dariusz' promoters were the most crooked in the sport, Roy definitely didn't duck those guys he just wasn't gonna hand over his belts to an inferior fighter with shady judges in their back-pockets.... I can't say Roy went to 175 for the $, he made more at 168 vs. Toney and Paz than he did for anybody at 175 other than Tarver

                nigel benn was a joke, his biggest win was against the g-man and he was ready to have a stroke.... i give no credit to benn for this fight because he was losing on the cards in his home town and g-man to a knee to end the fight. and also thulane malinga tooks benss spot against jones as the two were supposed to fight but benn lost to malinga.

                as for eubanks he went 4-5 over his last 9 fights from 95-98 imo thats not worthy of a title shot.

                if roy jones enters the rings with either guy the fight is over early....jones would stop both these guys

                • Roy has been doing what floyde is doing right now, and it eventually would lead to his demise. True great fighters out there don't do that, they fight the best no excusses, like de la hoya or morales.
