    Roy Jones Jr. at HW in 98-02.

    What if Roy moved up to HW sometime between 1998 and 2002 instead of waiting until 2003? Could he have won a title there? Who could he have beaten?

        No ! John Ruiz was the worst Heavyweight title holder of all time so it was a brilliant move on Jones part

              Who could he beat?

              Holyfield, Tyson and Lewis would all batter him.

                  Roy wasn't built for heavyweight and I wish he never moved up there. It ruined his career.

                    i share this sentiment. ruiz was too tempting to turn down.
