          People always argue about whether he ducked fighters or whether he's overrated or not, but all you have to do is watch any of his fights from his prime years and then you realize that he's obviously one of the best fighters in the history of boxing.

          He made James Toney and Bernard Hopkins look like amateurs, so... case closed.

                Roy Jones Jr = Awesome. Had a great carreer that is HOF worthy! Will be talked about 10 to so on years to come. Will be compared to many upcoming champions in ta future. Moved to heavy to gain a belt, an act only 2 in history have accomplished.

                  See Manny, we can agree on something, as long as it's not about Pacquio =)

                  Nice spelling by the way, my brain isn't hurting anymore!
