    Exactly. He also embarrassed a heavyweight.
    Roy fought John Ruiz...Ruiz was no Lennox Lewis.

    Sorry, no way you can slice it

        Roy is my favorite fighter of all time and I defend him to no end.

        But in his hey day there were call for him to fight Nunn, McClellan and Dariusz. I never he thought he ducked them but people were saying the same thing about him that people are Floyd. People try to take you down when you're on top.

        Somebody said Oscar fought everybody. He blatantly ducked Jose Luiz Lopez, he waited for Lopez to hurt Quartey to fight him. He avoided Tito for a minute. I was there for all of that.

        Honestly Tito, Cotto and Toney are the only top boxers who I've ever seen fought anyone without excuses

          i don't believe floyd has beaten better comp than roy at all, not with roy having atgs hopkins and toney on his resume...he didn't just beat 'em, he thoroughly outclassed 'em...i don't care how many beltholders floyd beats to a boring points decision...

          if it wasn't for floyd's persona, with that defensive style and no ko's, he would be a boxing purist's type of fighter, but definitely not be the cash cow in any era of boxing...
          What is it about Floyd's persona that makes him the top cash cow today?

          A persona has never made me want to order a PPV. Thats just me.

            As much as I like Roy he's full of ****. Calzaghe was there to fight, Michalczewski, Jirov, and when he got that paper heavyweight strap there was Lennox Lewis so Roy is a damn liar!!!!!!!!

                  He's not exactly what they referred to as the Roberto Duran type of fighter himself.

                  You have to go back and study the sport and his fights.

                  This is why no one was suprised when he went to HW to fight John Ruiz, when Lennox Lewis was the legit HW of the world.
                  Similar to what Mayweather did when he fought Baldomir, when Antonio Margarito was the legit MW champ

                  Any other questions young man?
                  Margo was never the lineal ww champ..matter of fact he won a vacant tite

                    Tarver also came to his press conference and called him out..and it was only when Roy wanted his titles back that he finally fought him...trust me i know the history as i am a huge fan of both..Roy was criticized just like Floyd for avoiding fights and fighting lesser comp..true or not that is what was said when he was on top

                      Dude I understand that you hate Floyd Mayweather, but to sit here and pretend that Roy Jones was always known as being the guy who took on the TOUGHEST fights is ludacris.
                      who the hell here is pretending that?????
