      Oh definitely yes.

      I've been watching this sports long before this internet thing came into play and if you're real boxing fan you don't need the internet to know who is who in boxing.

        yes. he's fought on tv many times and mentioned all the time in boxing magazines. Unless your only a casual fan who only follows big names around like hoya and Mosely.

          Winning as many titles as he did doesn't make you over rated, but people have their opinions. I only know about the fighters that actually make headlines.

            he won many titles against a bunch of bums. his only noteworthy wins are toney and hop. he fought a toney that didnt prepare and a hop that hadent ripened yet and then refused to rematch either of them. and he never recovered from his loss to tarver.

              Yes, I specifically remember watching the Cintron fight on FNF (I think)

              but what me really remember Margarito was the Lujan fight.. now excuse me while I throw up. Nastiest **** I've ever seen in a boxing ring.

                Yes, this is a boxing forum, most people on here are relativly knowledgable. The problem is that the casual fan has no idea

                  And that is the extent of your boxing knowledge.

                  If anything....that's pretty admirable. You're a lounge poster....you should return to posting in the lounge.

                  This is a Boxing Discussion Section. Not all of the top ranked fighters make big headlines, because they're relatively unknown.

                  You're great at typing 1 line fragmented question asking sentences....and you know alot about Roy Jones Jr.

                  Let's leave it at that...and please go back to making threads about me because your feelings are hurt.

                    Well how were the first bums able to win the titles anyway? bum vs. bum fights? Well I beleive Jones got caught with a lucky punch in the 2nd fight and Jones seemed more worried about staying on his feet then trying to get his revenge.
