Prime Danny Green vs Prime Roy Jones Jr at 175
 

When you beat a legend, you become a legend..

Those words have never rung more true than ever for Green, but how do you see a prime for prime match between the two go down? I see Danny's underated jab causing problems for RJJ moving atheltic style, close fight but maybe Roy edges him in a SD victory.

I remember watching this live, I couldn't stop laughing. :rofl

Re: Prime Danny Green vs Prime RJJ at 175
 

I think you should watch Bumdine school Danny Green, then times that by 10 for any idea of what would happened if a prime Roy had faced him.

Prime Jones would not have lost to Tarver, and Calz and he DAMN SURE wouldn't have lost to Johnson, and Green.

Glenn Johnson and Green would get ****ed up badly by a prime Jones, and anyone who thinks otherwise is on some powerful drugs.

Re: Prime Danny Green vs Prime RJJ at 175
 

Mundine manage to drain Green down to 168 for the fight and he fought on the back foot the whole time, he should of been a real fighter and backed up his talk by stepping into the ring at 175 against Green but that's another story.

danny green ain't got nothing on roy...

Re: Prime Danny Green vs Prime Roy Jones Jr at 175
 

He smashed Roy like he had a glass jaw, his power would be too much.

Re: Prime Danny Green vs Prime Roy Jones Jr at 175
 

Roy would win easily. although Roy was never hit clean in his prime. Once he started to get hit clean he did not take it well. He is lucky he was not stopped early in his career, because he might have kept on being knocked out like he did once he was stopped by Tarver. Thomas Hearns handled being knocked out better than Roy did and didn't decline as much. He might get stopped later, but he didn't just fall apart defensively, as a matter of fact Tommy got a little better defensively after he lost to Barkley in 1988.

Please....

Re: Prime Danny Green vs Prime RJJ at 175
 

That is complete bullshit. Green was not tight at the weight, he had been fighting there for years of his own choice and in world ttile challenges, and the 'weight drained' excuse was never mentioned in any way, shape or form in any of Green's prior bouts, during his Mundine preparation or even after the fight. Green readily admitted- "I was beaten by the better man on the night", and that was his tune until his comeback.

It was not until Green started his Dannyweight campaign that the excuse that he was 'weight drained' began being used...probably on Angelo Hyder's suggestion. Danny imo came up with the wrong excuse anyway- he'd have been better claiming he overtrained for the fight at the behest of the Cuban trainer, it's more plausible even if it is a false claim.

The reason Danny came back fighting at 185lb's is- a) he really did retire, stop training and underwent that 'filling-out' body process is jsut too difficult to reverse, and b) at 185lb's he could pick and choose to fight opponents at his 100% optimum weight- which is a good trick to stack a bout in your favour if you can pull it off viz sanctioning body (insert IBO!).

Awesomely stupid comment...what exactly does the word 'boxing' mean to you...I'm only wasting my time commenting on your crud because I despise false revisionism.

I also echo the above poster's comments that anything Mundine could do, Roy Jones Jr would do infinitely better. A non-old/shot Roy Jones vs Danny Green matchup at 175lb's would have been excruciatingly embarressing for Green.

That's another story???? :dead
Sorry for pulling your paragraph apart in the way I have, but I really enjoy seeing the different idiotic premises it contains standing bare and alone.

Why would they have fought at 175lb when Mundine was campaigning at 168 and Green had had his title fights against Beyer at 168lb's.

It is people like you who give Aussies a bad name as parochial imbeciles, you have some ****ing abysmal thought-processes at play.

Re: Prime Danny Green vs Prime Roy Jones Jr at 175
 

green fought with a 40 yr old jones with loaded gloves. jones sued and it got settled out of court. next fight, green lands a glancing jab and his opponent is ko'ed. then, vs flores, green is drinking out of another bottle in his corner like aaron pryor. green is garbage and something seems to always be corrupt with his fights.

prime for prime, jones beats green by wide ud or late stoppage.
