    Boxing fans know who he is. I first saw him a few years ago on HBO. He's fought on HBO and ESPN since then as well, including the PPV vs. Cintron last year...

        that punch shattered roys chin and his heart. it proved that he wasnt as great as people thought. oh and there are a lot of bums with titles right now. valuev, baldomir etc. bums get titles through the politics of boxing and then they lose them to guys like roy jones and floyd mayweather because they understand how to manipulate those politics.

          In my opinion, if Roy didn't have a confidence problem I think he could've pulled out the 3rd fight of their trilogy. Valuev is the most padded boxer i've ever seen, but he's just a puppet to his promoter to make money.

            You can be critical of Floyd if you want to, but his resume reads like a murderer's row compared to RJJ. The guys RJJ won titles off of do not compare to the modest careers of Judah and Gatti. I see Judah and Gatti as good contenders... they both have some skill but not enough to be great champs. Also, RJJ was never went through the tests that Floyd went through at 130/135. You said it yourself his 2 toughest fights Hopkins and Toney were tainted (Toney out of shape; Hopkins too young).

                What I really don't get by people making the reason why Hopkins was possibly too inexperienced and too young for the fight, I mean if you want to get technical about it Roy had one fight less than Hopkins. (Hopkins 22 wins at the time.)

                  I'm pretty sure the Cintron fight was on Friday Night Fights with good old Teddy Atlas

                  Tony has only headlined one PPV card and that was his last fight versus Gomez.

                    No doubt that Hopkins had more professional fights, but realistically, who was the more groomed fighter? The guy who had swept through the Olympics and amateur ranks or the guy who started boxing after he was relesaed from prison. I actually am not insulting RJJ more than protecting Floyd. You can say whatever you want about these two but there is no denying that they are two of our generations most talented boxers. Both can be accused of not making the most exciting fights for the fans, but that shouldn't detract from commending them on great skill.

                      You are both right,
                      It was ESPN PPV.
                      Their first and last PPV.
                      I think Brock and McCline fight were on that card too.
