I gotta say, Mike Jones hasnt impressed me.

He couldnt KO Henry Bruseles who Mayweather toyed with and stopped easily years ago, and struggled with a game but lets face it at best an OK fighter, who was already beaten by Gomez and Foreman.


Seems a bit "basic" to me. Good in many area's but nothing that you could point to and say thats where he's special. :bart

 

:-(

 

I know, but man, Henry Bruseles?

 

Wow ripper that was quite a sonicboom reply to an alter-ego Michigan Warrior.

Stop talking to yourself....stop ripping yourself and get a 24/7 job...

I dont see the accuracy or the speed from Mike Jones. I see some clubbing power but alot of combinations that lead nowhere.

 

I'm not Michigan Warrior. Guess again :tong

 

hes got some skills and is a big 147 pounder. Karass kicked his ass in the 1st fight. he has potential, but I want to see him fight someone legit and win before i back him up.

 

We dont have 24/7 jobs in America. We have how do you say "laws" in the first world. :good

 

back then they didn't want him, now he's hot, they all on him

Right now I'd say Mike Jones is still at the "Who?" stage. Maybe one day he'll be at the Mr. Jones stage. But I dont see it. :good

 

Why would you compare his performance against Brussels to one of the greatest fighters of the modern era:huh

Obviously Mayweather will have performed better against Brussels.

 

It's a bit unfair to hold him up to the Mayweather standard, don't you think?

He's still a very good talent and worth following. He'll be a player.

 

Mike Jones is being said to be a candidate for next American star. That wasnt a "star" like performance.


Bruseles is probably one of Mayweathers worst victories. He's not even a contender level boxer. I expect Mike Jones to stop him.

 

Yeah that isn't even fair. Jones was a bit inexperienced when he fought Brussels. He really didn't show his current potential until he fought Soto Karass the second time.

 

When comparing young fighters and their talent level, you judge them based on the best in the business.


When Yoriorkis Gamboa fought Jorge Solis, he KO'd him faster then Pacquiao did. He didnt win a sloppy UD. As to why when people see Gamboa, they say "wow!" as to why when people see Mike Jones they say "He's ok".
