    The guy was a hard worker and a decent boxer
    Just noticed you added his name
    He’s one of my hometown fighters but I knew he had no fughin chance whatsoever
    The b-ball game was the cherry on top
    Yeah, Lucas was a respectable fighter

        The single greatest fighter I've had the privilege of watching growing up. If you didn't know anything about boxing you knew who Roy Jones Jr was, he's the kind of guy that got many casuals into boxing. Imagine him if he were in his prime today with the way social media promotes people. It would be crazy
        real raw real raw likes this.

          Roy is the GOAT in my book, not resume of course, but head to head.

          Also, him putting both hands behind his back, slipping 2 punches and then KO'ing his opponent with the next punch is legendary. I've never seen anything like it.
          He would have kicked Beterbiev's a$$ for sure!

            Name another fighter that never lost the heavy majority of the rounds and landed at 75% or higher power punches (in many fights) in their prime. Wtf that's insane.

              Prime Roy is the closest thing to invincibility this sport will ever see. The man was an absolute phenom, untouchable, he bent everything to his will and pound for pound if everything was equal, there's not a single fighter that beats him

              Special special special fighter

                yep its not even close, we can talk about who has the best resume, or who was the so called greatest but no fighter made world class fighters and hall of famers look inept like Roy Jones Jr.

                Man was almost untouchable, had radar, speed power everything you need and he worked hard as well. guys like that the only way you beat is to shoot em or land a shot they dont see

                  Listen, try to play 1 full court game of basketball; that is if you can finish the first 10 minutes.

                  Then try to box 3, 3 minute rounds, that is if you can make it past the first 2 minutes.
                  You mean similar to how you couldn't make it past the first 2 minutes with a real fighter?

                  lol.....
