    Roy Jones jr overrated

    In my opinion roy is given far to much credit, he ducked calzaghe, ubank and ben in his prime and basically fought a load of cans, which make him a can. Just like tyson only fought cans and avoided hollyfeild and lewis in his prime and was exposed as a can when he adventually fought them. The 2 most overrated cans in boxing.

        Let me guess, you're a Calzaghe fan though right?

          It is amazing how many good fighters around his weight that he never fought.

            Never lost in his prime.
            Where is the mecca of boxing OP???
            Roy didnt duck anyone. Europeans and asians need to come to NyC or vegas.
            Bottom line

              You do know Tyson vs Holyfield was scheduled before he went to jail right; google can be your friend.

                In his prime, who beats him?

                Maybe Hagler, maybe Ezzard Charles, probably Ray Rob. No, he's not overrated.

                And in the case of Hagler, he'd be a WW/JMW in this generation.

                  My favorite part is when you said "he adventually fought them".

                  Good insight though. Roy Jones is clearly a bum. He wasted all his talents beating guys like Hopkins and Toney and moving all the way up to HW and winning a title. Calzaghe was obviously the man to beat! And can you believe that bum lost to Montell Griffin too lol.

                    Roy Jones is probably the most gifted fighter ever
