[Mango]

Iam sick to death of hearing how Roy had poor opposition....but who was ther for him to fight cant think of anybody, he wiped out three divs and even claimed a portion of the heavy title.....give him his dues, he ducked noone

Benn, Eubank, G-Man, Julian Jackson, Lamar Parks, Mike Nunn, Joe Calzaghe, Steve Collins, Frank Liles, Fabrice Tiozzo, Dariusz Michalczewski, Vassiliy Jirov, and that's just for starters.

He should of fought atleast Benn or Eubank.

he fought steve collins, joe c is and was a nobody, eubank was scared to fight him. the other guys, it was probably an ego thing. neither would settle for a smaller purse, kind of like with rjj and bhop

When did he fight Steve Collins?

Jones Jr ducked Eubank when Eubank was at the end of his career, according to Eubank. Chris told somebody last year that he thinks he could of KO'd Jones Jr.

As for that ego/purse ****, no it wasn't about money in any of those cases other than maybe Collins.

Then, it must be so. Imagine, if Manny Steward seconded what Eubanks unbiasedly said ? Then, the opinion would be fact.

Typical Euro fighters who wont come to the US if there life depended on it

The difference between Roy Jones and Floyd Mayweather is Floyd's opponents are actually good fighters who get made to look like nobodies. Mitchell, Gatti, Corley...these are not bad fighters by any means. They are NAME fighters.

I remember when Roy was fighting, I would hear the name of his opponent and wonder WHO THE HELL IS THAT?!

David Telesco? Derrick Harmon? Who are these guys?

Those names make Corrales, Castillo, Chavez, and Gatti look like Muhammad Ali.
