Roy jones almost go KO in 5th round vs Glen Johnson

[fabzmm]

I was just re-watching the fight, and in the 5th round and at 1:52 glen johnson hit roy jones with a straight right in the temple, the same exact spot he KOed him with and the same punch. He hit him, and I think Roy was knocked out for a lil bit because he was leaning on glen johnson and then when johnson moved jones almost fell down but he caught himself. Did anyone catch this or remeber ?

[Easy-E]

yeah i remember. roy still had a great round after that tho...he landed some crazy fast combinations.

[fabzmm]

yea, im watching the fight and in the 5th round he got clocked hard almost ko'ed. then he comes back and throws these fast as **** combos. but what i noticed is that he was just throwing them with no accuracy at all. he was scared of getting it.

[.::EnRiQuE::.]

this thread is pointless. he got hurt in the 5ht.....alright. the fight happened like 2 years ago or suttin like dat....pointless

I absolutely love how the whole fight Steward keeps saying Johnson is fighting like an amateur by swarming Jones (as if that's a poor gameplan or some ****) and then he knocks Roy the **** out. Okay, Emmanuel, so admit Roy got knocked out by an amateur.

I can't stand these "experts" that get mad when the purist boxers get beat by "amateur" gameplans

why "expert" in quotes? we are talking about manny steward here...

All right he is an expert, I'll give you that, but how can you call a guy amateurish for being effective?

From an early standpoint, no one would have EVER thought that Glen Johnson (or anyone for that matter) could keep the blistering pace that he was setting. And I think Steward thought he would die out as well.

We were wrong.

[Super_Lightweight]

Johnson was being amateur and it was only effective because Roy was factually undertrained and not what he once was.
