    it only proves one thing, that guys like Jones dont come around to often.One belt or ten no one has done it in a long time.Now we got 2 guys that started at 160 and winning heavyweight titles each with a different style of fighting also.

      Did you not read the ****in post man?

      Billy Conn, who fought JOE LOUIS, greatest heavyweight champion of the world....almost beat Joe Louis...but if he had the same chance Jone had to fight terrible HW like Ruiz...

      then this record would've been broken at least 60 years ago...

      Ironically Toney and Jones both brok the record in less than 2 years apart

      Jones fought a paper champion in Ruiz...

        Keep in mind that the quality of fighters is changed and Lennonx Lewis is a great heavyweight champ. He might not be one of the pound 4 pound greatest heavyweights ever, but he was huge. Marciano might've been 3x as skilled as Lennox, but he'd still lose to him if they fought because Lennox could smother him. Jones would've lost to Lewis, Bobby would have to. What heavyweight champ did he beat, anyway?

        Also, Conn was also a good Light Heavyweight.

              what fitz did was amazing.
              what rjj did is also amazing
              dont discredit rjj, ruiz is a good figter, he beat rahman, holyfield (very good/great fighters), and oquendo and golota, (quality competition)
              just becuase you dont like rjj, doesnt mean he didnt accomplish a great feat

                I'm saying...if this was like the olden days...

                He would've never done this!

                Fighters these days are spoiled and making the old timers look bad..

                    Exactly...

                    If this was in the olden days, Jones would have had to fight Lewis not Ruiz...

                    Until he defeats Lewis, Bobs record is still unbroken in my books..

                      Boxing has evolved over the era dude, get with the times. For the better or worse, how it is today is simply how it is. Back in the old old days boxing wasn't a full time profession 24/7, just like football players and whatnot. They used to go out drinking and smoking and just do what they wanted for the most part. They'd fight once a month or more so against very mediocre boxers/fighters by our current standards. Bobby would've gotten killed by Lewis, just as RJJ would've.
