So Roy Jones has a strong chin then. A strong ability to take punches to the head? Please tell me this is not something you are going to contend.Originally posted by SliquestylezThe only weak chin is yours ******. Phukk go do lobotomyyou piece of shiet.Comment

Because he was better then evryone else. If McCallum and Toney can't hurt Roy, no one on that weight division will.Comment

RJJ was too quick to get hit. I just saw the RJJ/Hopkins fight and that was a very close fight. Hopkins was much quicker back then than he is today but he gave RJJ too much respect. However, when Hopkins did try to win rounds, he did land a few hard hits but so many other missed. And RJJ was using mostly head and torso movements - not blocking.Originally posted by McKayI never saw him get hit flush in his prime either.
But his unorthodox style was his undoing. Once you lose that speed and reflex, the fundimentals of boxing can save an aging boxer. And RJJ was never an orthodox boxer. He rarely jabbed, he rarely had both hands up. He always stuck his face out too far. This fall, we'll see just how Roy has adjusted to his fading speed. He still has better speed than most fighters so if he can just use the fundimentals of boxing, he could win a rematch.Comment

Yeah I think Hopkins did okay in the later rounds of that fight. He did give Roy to much respect in the early rounds. Later in the fight he was coming right at him and getting him against the ropes and seemed to have him slightly hurt a few times. But He never landed any dynamite flush punches.Originally posted by SnoopySmurfRJJ was too quick to get hit. I just saw the RJJ/Hopkins fight and that was a very close fight.

I admire the way he rebounded from the loss to Harding, & to the way he was losing to Harding the second time around.
He really, when you think about, takes advantage of his second chances...
He came back from drug addiction, the Harding bouts, in the rematch with Roy, & in the rematch with Johnson.
He has a big mouth to some, but I think he's a charismatic dude.
His "excuses" line to Roy Jones has to go down as one of the funniest & ballsiest things one fighter has ever said to another.
Some good mind-****ing on his part.
I'm not a huge fan, but I do think he's a very good, interesting fighter.Comment
