    Pretty certain Roy would decapitate Ray Robinson

    The three best shots in boxing

    The Lewis uppercut
    Roys leaping left hook
    Pacquiao straight left

    All I see is a ****y, juiced up fast-handed guy with a flawed defence.

    Of course he'd decapitate SRR. He beat Pazienza and Woods, right.

    Maybe but in his prime, his incredible reflexes and athleticism meant he could get away with a less than perfect defence.

    Its just a shame that he's carried on for so long. If ever a fighter has damaged his own legacy by fighting waaay past his best ,its Jones.
