    Its a solid list and I think the Tarver win is all but forgootten today.. Eclipsed by the rematch. Solid, but nothing special.

    His fight against Letterlough was pretty entertaining.

    After the third knockdown Gonzalez looked completely gone.

    One of the best examples of "how did he get up from that?"

    Exactly,

    Few fighters ever have claim to have beaten a true ATG in their prime. I'd say the list is rather thin by comparison to those who haven't. Doesn't mean that their records, title defenses and impressive performances don't count for something. If anyone asks me, I think Roy Jones gets **** on here a bit too often.

    Darius looked fantastic on film vs Rocchigiani 1.

    Amazing performance:D

    Not surprising Jones avoided him for years.

    ....I cant believe somebody actually said that....



    Dont know who would win, but neither of them would get outside the first round against Iron Mike :D

    Are you trying to say in 02 or 03 if Roy really wanted it, if he was hungry enough to really dedicate himself to achieving this goal that he didnt have the talent to pull it off? With someone who had the perfect gameplan in his corner of course Roy could have done it, he was a phenom. And he would have ****ed up Ray Robinson also.

    Im not joking. He would have had to have fought the perfect fight and the odds would be stacked against him but he could have done it.

    Is there something wrong in your brain mate? Wired a bit different arer you? Since when did Lennox Lewis mean Mike Tyson? They dont even look the same.
