When Jones got KTFO by Johsnon...

Yes because Tarver isnt the same fighter as Johnson. Johnson style would always defeat Jones. Tarver tried to box Jones on both accounts in their fights and never really swarmed him like other fighters should have. I believe Richard Hall tried it and was about as successful as one got before Jones stopped him.

Roy Jones of 2002 would KO Johnson by the 5th round, but I do believe that Johnson has a style that will bother a prime Roy Jones, but I still think a prime Roy would KO him. Richard Hall got murdered by Roy, I don't know what fight you were watching, but Richard Hall didn't do anything in the fight except gettin hit by solid punches.

Ask your dad if he thinks he could beat McClellan.

At that moment, I was simply in awe of what just happened. I wasn't thinking about him beating anyone, I was just trying to make sense of him getting KTFO for the second time in a row lol

When it happened, I was happy because I just won a 500 bet with my friend that rjj was shot and would get KTFO.

It was still eerie though, to see him lay there like that, and know that a few years ago , it would have been glen who was on the mat.

I was in absolute shock. I coudln't believe he got KO'd by a fighter with 8 losses at the time, and wasn't considered "World Class". RJJ looked so helpless, and vulnerable. I was in absolute shock...couldn't explain the feeling I had.

at the time i thought johnson was a bum because of his losses and roy should have hanged his gloves up right after that fight, he was behind on the cards bad then gets ktfo. it confirmed the tarver KO wasn't a fluke.
now i think Jones lost to the best in the division, but he still should call it a day....

I know he got knocked out in the 2nd but in the first round he swarmed Roy and that was really the first time shown that if you pressured him and got close enough to fight inside you COULD do damage. Unfortunately Hall didnt have it and Jones brought it, but I believe he had the style right with the pressure from beginning to end. Also I was referring to Roy of now not Roy of then, I have no doubts Roy would terrorize Glencoffe to the point he wouldnt even be ranked in the top 30.
