    But age caught up with him months later against Tarver...

    You use discussions like this to speak your hatefull agenda. Do you even know what your point is?

    Regardless of what you think, Jones cut 20lbs of mussle at 34 year old

    Since then, he never looked the same.

    Fighters that rely on reflex and speed are fighters like Ali, Ray Leonard, and Jones.

    All 3 were not the same after 34 and 35 years old.

    That's no coincidence.

      Jones defeated Tarver in the first fight, so the weight loss argument may have less validity than you claim.

        I have no agenda. I have always said I hated Tarver more than any fighter.

        But one thing I see from biased Jones fans is their unwillingness and forceful attempts to discredit Tarver for beating Jones twice (three times by some). It's a sad fact.

        It's extremely sad that Jones is called GOAT and then 'old' months later after losing. Nevermind the fact that Johnson and Tarver ARE older than Jones and have not beaten the fighters Jones has. That's what cancels out that 'old' and 'past' his prime excuse. Jones isn't using it and the two fighters that beat him are older.

        But the difference with Mayweather when he loses, is that you will say he beat great people. I'm sure Mayweather will start challenge the 'A' list of fighters soon.

              Hey Bloodshed, I will admit right now Tarver did beat Jones twice.

                He was in the Sauna for 6 hours the day before the fight, and looked obviously off in the fight itslef.

                What Bloodshed is doing here is using this (like he uses any mention of Roy) to spout hate.

                Jones lost to Tarver in their Rematch, and he speaks like that some how writes off his entire career.

                If Mayweather makes it undefeated to 35, I'm sure there would be a small portion of fans to talk about how he's finally been "exposed".

                Tarver deserves some credit for the wins in the 2nd and 3rd fights, but anyone who implys that was Jones at his best, or speaks exclusivly about those losses like that should overshadow what he did in the decade before that, has a hatefull agenda.

                I'm sure when Floyd finally loses, there will be the same small fraction of people who are looking to vent some hate.

                It doesn't matter. A great fighter is a great fighter.

                The obsession today with undefeated records is silly. Great fighters lose fights. They always have.

                    I could not agree more.
