2 of those trinket belts he paraded around with at Light Heavyweight belonged to DM. And yes there was a Linear Champion at Light Heavyweight when Roy was there he flat out refused to fight him.
Maybe in your chinless dreams. RJJ was the linear champion at LHW. If there was one they wouldn't have jumped on Tarver's nuts and would have promoted whatever imaginary name you have up your ass.
DM was the Linear champion at Light Heavyweight and half of Roy's belts belonged to DM anyway they were stripped from him he never lost them in the ring. Jones never fought DM and he was NEVER the Linear Champion at Light Heavyweight. He was nothing but a trinket beltholder.
anyone can pick up another belt with the right opponent like he did with Ruiz, but he didn't beat Calzaghe, which would have meant the most.
Roy Jones Jr could take the fight with Erdei, he could win a title belt but time is slipping and 175 is getting tougher.
