When did Roy Jones lose it?

[Bad Intentions]

James was weighing 220lbs just six weeks before fighting Jones at 168, that's 52lbs bodyweight he had to lose. No wonder James was a shadow of his former self that night and a passenger for 12 rounds, Jones was the one coming up in weight so he had all the advantages.

make up ur mind, its no excuse for RJJ but it is one for Toney, Make up ur mind...u are always making excuses for ur lil british boyfriends but u always trash RJ cuz deep inside u kno had them bums came to the U.S RJ woulda sent them packing just like Lacy did 2 Reid.

[ROY JONES II]

Each fighter is affected differently. First off Roy body was mostly muscle. Hardly no fat on his body. Everyone wants to say steriods this steriods that. Whatever just trying to talk about one of the greatest fighters i have ever seen. The weight loss is a major factor and you could see that in Jones/Tarver I. Jones/TarverII just was caught with a perfectly timed and executed punch. As far as Jones/Johnson it was a simple fact of mental block from his last fight. Scared to throw punches and Roy just basicly doubting himself. On Oct 1st be ready to see boxing 101-The Sweetest Science by the instructor Roy Jones Jr.

Good point.
Jones was a mesomorph while Toney was a endomorph.

Jones was weighing 193lbs in March 2003, he had to make 175lbs in November 2003. That's nothing! He was 'blown-up' at 193, so naturally he would of lost the weight in the weeks after the Ruiz fight anyway.. and he fought Tarver nine months later. Give me a break. Toney had just SIX WEEKS to lose 52lbs!!

As for my British boyfriends not willing to go to America, could you be more specific please (and why change the subject? maybe your feeling uncomfortable that your hero was a fraud)?

[Tarver is my dad]

What funny to me is a man dominated 3 Divisions & then beat the Heavyweight Champ who at that point hadnt been beaten since Tua knocked him out but all everyone can say is how he is a fraud after he gets knocked out late in his career. Everyone talks about what fights he coulda and shoulda taken. But what about those people he was suppose to fight why didnt they make more of an effort to get those fights???? It takes 2 to tango. As far as I'm concerned yes his legacy is tanished by his last two knockout defeats but let be real it came at the end of a stellar career. Roy is still one of the greats whether you want to realize it or not.

How would he put on seven lbs in a day when he's already blown-up? And why not weigh 200 at the weigh-in?
