    I am a big Roy Jones fan and I think he won the first Tarvor fight and I wish he would have retired after that fight. Unless he saved nothing from all those big paydays I don't see why he is still fighting and risking his brain. On top of the 18 champs he beat alot of rated contenders defending his tittles. Beating a Hopkins even pre prime and Toney is very impressive and Roy is an all time great to me. The Tarver KO loss seem to be the end of him and I only judge him before that. Still after reading what you wrote I think less of him now than I did before reading it. You made your point to me.

        Are you sure? What about Nunn and Liles? In those cases there would no venue-dispute.

            Yes, this ^^^. Toney's win over Holyfield is better than Darius whole career. I don't care how many title defences he had against bums and RJJR leftovers. He didn't have half the ability of Toney.

            Toney could have been one of the greatest. In his prime he had a defense second to none (maybe Mayweather, but very comparable). He has a ****ing granite chin and pure badass mentality. He would fight anyone and arguably (except at middle and super middleweight) never trained like a champion does.

            He wasted a lot of talent and STILL is considered great, that shows you a lot.

                    16. Antonio Tarver
                    Some pple say Tarver beat Roy Jones 3 times, so basically Tarver shouldn't be on this list. Should he?


                    Are you really this ******?

                    Oh, and I love how you downplay the ATG Toney and Hopkins wins so effortlessly like they didn't even happen.

                    Hows about go ****ing yourself.

                      What about them? I don't understand the Nunn talk?
