        Shouldn't this be a Klitschko thread? I do this with the Klits and I'm accused of hating. You do it with Jones and you want it to be accepted as objective. Difference is Jones showed far more ability, was more exciting, beat far better fighters. Go figure!

              Bernard Hopkins wasn't prime because he lost? For the sake of argument, even if he wasn't prime, he was damn close to his prime! And Toney was prime. That is 2 ATGS on RJJ's resume right there. Not to mention who else he has on his resume and how dominant he was. H2H RJJ would do well against anyone in history.

              Btw Hopkins is an ATG and he gets credit for longevity, but he isn't Roy Jones. Y'all Musta Forgot!
