This is the same Thomas Tate that broke Julian Jackson's 6 year long consecutive KO streak, by going the distance.

Jones had disturbing power @ 160. You had to have an ATG beard (ala Hopkins & Castro) in order to go the distance with Jones in that Weightclass.

Downright scary.

The speed, variation, power...just wow. At 160, very few could even compete with this man.

Awesome, could you imagine if he retired after Ruiz? He would be talked about endlessly on these forums.

He would be, but there would also be people saying he is overated ect. Being a fan of Jones since the first time i watched boxing, @160 he was awesome.

gotta love the dog collar.

Without a doubt Jones owned the 160 pound division in his day.

Id also like to say, the uploader of the video...his channel has been great so far. He has the Naseem Hamed career uploaded (one fight missing but a real early one) and he's doing okay with the Jones saga.

Hopefully, he uploads more careers.

I can't think of anyone who could throw a left hook better than Roy
