Roy Jones jnr vs Sergey Kvalev @ 175

Yeah, I think Roy's head was buzzed pretty good.. My only point was I think the canvas had something to do with his right leg slipping out from under him like it did. Marvin on the other hand like you said, literally wasn't hurt at all.

 

Then why the fvck are you trying to put more emphasis on the slip? A guy who is NOT hurt doesn't hold on for the remainder of the round, no matter what his name is.

:good

 

YES he was. Try looking at the whole sequence, not just the KD from your favoured overhead camera angle. He gets up wobbles to his left the ref approaches him, and after about 7 seconds he claims he slipped.

:good

 

Roy can't take a punch. If Kov lands a solid one, it's over.

 

:think he took punches for over 10 yrs

 

Watch Tarver-Jones I.

He took some bombs up against the ropes in that one.

 

Watch Tarver Jones 1

 

GUYS THIS Is a great super middle weight against a beast of a lhw. would you put jones vs foster at 175 and think he could win. this is the equilavent.

 

Specific shots Tarver unloaded on Jones ..You would have to you tube the highlights I couldn't believe Jones still stood up after some of the bombs he ate

 

I don't know how to GIF, I just know how to post full videos...

Someone did a GIF a while back that showed Griffin landing a very hard shot in the first fight that had a big thud to it.. Roy shook it off.

 

Toney hit him hard at the end of round 5 I think it was.. but that was at 168, but I think it was the one of the hardest shots he took in his career..

Also Ruiz landed a pretty solid right in the first round, which hurt Roy a little.. That was also one of the hardest punches he took IMO.

 

Roy never had an iron chin, but it certainly got worse as he got older.. I have seen him hit enough throughout his career, in his prime, his chin was not the glass it is now.

 

It wasn't that he had a glass jaw its the fact that you couldn't catch him flush his chin was decent I mean it took 9 Rds for Johnson to KO him after he was knocked out by Tarver and 10 rds to get Ko Ed by that cruiser weight Ledebev

His chin wasn't iron but decent ..But then again how many small guys can with stand punches from naturally bigger men ..Roy isn't th biggest of fighters

 

Ancient Hopkins was a helluva lot easier to hit than prime Roy.

It doesn't matter how much power Kov has (or, for that matter the quality of Roy's chin) if Kov can't land anything of substance.

We need to see more of the European against quality opposition before we can say, but up to this point, there is nothing to suggest he would beat late nineties Roy.
