    Poor amateur record? More like a strong late surge for DTOTY, dumbest thread of the year!

            Same thing. Avoided/Ducked ... it's just a pointless war of words. When two fighters can't get a deal done, it's impossible to know why. Of course, the two fighters are both going to blame the other party, but that doesn't mean it's true. It's really just a case of which fighter you believe more, and people just stand up for their favourite fighters. Maybe Roy ducked every fighter on that list? Maybe every fighter on that list was afraid of him?

                1985 Florida Jr. Olympics - Lost

                He also Lost to Igor Ruzhnikov (Russia, 139, 1986), John Reid (Ireland, 156, 1986), Andy Liebing (Cuba, 156, 1986), Frank Liles (almost KTFO, US nationals, 156, 1988) and Gerald McClellan (US Golden Gloves, 156, 1988). Then, Jones got a gift to the 1988 Olympics when every sane person knows it should of been Gerald McClellan going to Seoul. Mediocre Richie Woodhall gave Jones a very close fight in the semi-finals. Then Park Si-Hun was Jones' 13th amateur loss.


                Also remember that Jermain Taylor looked better against Bernard Hopkins than Jones did and that Michael Nunn looked better against James Toney than Jones did. People should not forget the Schooling that Montell Griffin put on Jones. Let's not forget 40-year-old Mike McCallum giving Jones a really close fight. Let's not forget Lou Del Valle almost KTFO Jones. Let's not forget Antonio Tarver KTFO Jones. Let's not forget Glencoffe Johnson KTFO Jones. Let's not forget Antonio Tarver beat Jones four times - 1982 (robbed), 2003 (robbed), 2004 and 2005. Jones' best resume is the guys he avoided and ducked - Gerald McClellan, Lamar Parks, Julian Jackson, Nigel Benn, Chris Eubank, Michael Nunn, Graciano Rocchigiani, Fabrice Tiozzo, Steve Collins, Henry Maske, Dariusz Michalczewski, James Toney II, Bernard Hopkins II, Joe Calzaghe, Vassilliy Jirov, Mike Tyson, Lennox Lewis, the list goes on.

                Jones took full distinction when Fabrice Tiozzo moved up to Cruiserweight if he want to fight jones why move up in weight

                  I Dont Know About All Those Storys But Jones In My Opinion Is One Of The Most Overrated Fighters Ever The Only Fighter He Fought Who Is Worth A Mention Is Hopkins And He Did Dance The Last Couple Of Rounds Away From Hopkins Like A Scared Child

                    hmm

                    This statement just proved you never seen the Hopkins fight.

                    Next, Jones beat many fighters "worth a mention".

                    He KO'd Virgil Hill with one shot, wo is a possible HOF himself.

                    He destroyed Merq Sosa, who Toney only managed to get a SD against.

                    He dominated Ruiz like no one has but Tua.

                    He dominated Toney and won every round. EVERY SINGLE ROUND.

                    He starched possible future HOF Montell Griffin with one shot, a guy who holds two wins over James Toney.

                    Many of the guys he beat were champs or went on to be champs, like McCallum, Lucas, Woods, Tarver, Castro, etc.

                    You seem to know very little about Roy Jones Jr. Just thought I'd set you straight.

                      he ducked toney and hopkins the second time??!!? hardly! jones never ducked tyson or lewis, he fought ONCE at hw, then moved down. also, jones looked sharp and was effective against hopkins, and got the clear win.

                      your a biased clown, and iceman called you out and made you look like an idiot. you suck, stop hatting.
