    ~~~~~~1.) Losing all that weight messed his body up
    2.) He simply got older
    3.) He didn't take the fights seriously~~~~~~~

    * Roy still has a legion of apologists. Every fighter gets older. Roy lost to fighters in his age group, and didn't just lose, he was blasted back to his chicken farm. The only weight he lost is the brains he used to have.

      His two big fights (Toney, Hopkins) He looked alot slower although He was dominating.

          Tarver might be in his age group but look how many he fights he has had compared to Roy. And yes, that does make a difference. Jim Lampley is an intelligent man and said Roy Jones is one of the top 5 smartest people he ever met in his life. So he must have some brains...did I mention he is rich and multi-talented. Those are more like facts than opinions, so don't call me a nut hugger.

            Well said, lets not forget Tarver is Roy's age, not younger.

              Beating up Vinny Pazienza doesn't exactly make you the greatest ever. If Roy hadn't been Toney and Hopkins (granted on their worst days each), I wouldn't respect him at all.

                It isn't really Roy's fault they were on their worst days.

                  Come on now, their worst days? How do you figure it was their worst days? Thats a comment that can't be proven either way.

                    of course not, but paz is a good solid fighter, like i said, he beat DURAN TWICE.
                    its just an impressive clip, and Tu whatever his name is was saying that paz is inferior opposition when he clearly is not
