I agree with this post.....Originally posted by dalatinsnakeAlthough the two don't really mix due to the wording on the second, I chose:
An All-Time Great
Has-been who should retire
He was phenomenal in his prime. But now, no matter what anyone says, his reflexes have really gone to hell. Well not really, they're still impressive, but nowhere near the point at which they were before. He cannot stand up to the great fighters of today right now. He should retire for the good of his name.Comment

Last night brought back memories because the fight was on Eurosport.
I used to watch Jones on Eurosport in 1992 and was a big fan, couldn't wait to see him take on Benn, Eubank, McClellan etc
I really thought Jones could be the greatest, win or lose he could of been involved in the best fights ever. Remember, pre-Oscar it was Roy Jones who was supposed to be boxings next superstar, I expected him to travel the world and let rip in barn-burners, and win or lose always get credit for his athleticism and mind-boggling talents. Very, very disappointed how he turned out.

Oscar though didn't become a superstar outside of America, nobody knows who he is outside of America.
Focus really should of stayed on Jones, he should of been forced upon to take on everybody - would of been a hell of a ride.Comment
