As soon as I seen "scientific proof"i knew I disagreed.Boxing is LAST SPORT you can predict with a computer or mathematical equation.Matter a fact I don't think that works alone in any other sport even baseball.
In my opinion prime Roy Jones Jr separated himself from his competition more than any other boxer ever.
Roy was so athletic that he basically created his own rules of boxing.
Who needs proper technique when you can just hold your hands behind your back, laugh, and then knockout your opponent anyway?
The only knock against Roy is that he fought too long and probably missed out on being recognized by many as the best ever.
I can't see any boxer beating prime RJJ P4P
Roy lack of better comp will hurt him more than fightin too long(well not heath wise).I think he is easy ATG and HOFer but I think his lack of great fighters really just a possible pre prime B hop and Toney(who deserves no excuse)maybe you can trow Tarver in there if you wont but even that was a close win#1 of course.He did beat a lot a good to very good fighters though.
My initial reaction to the OP's video is this tho:
Watching your video of all his losses just makes me sad.Never understand how anybody can get any joy from that.It pizzes me off that these commissions keep letting him fight.And I'm the 1st guy to say they stop fights WAY to soon these days(since football story broke)but WHAT THE HELL was ref dong in that Ledbev fight!!!!!!!!!!

What's really interesting is that this isn't everything. The Macarinelli KO isn't there, and I felt that one was brutal.
