    everyone says Hopkins was green...which is BS....so then we should discount Salvador Sanchez' win vs Azumah Nelson.

    Put it this way, that version of Bhop Kos Taylor.

    All I would say that fight wasnt a big event, both fighter didnt have the notoriaty then

    Yes indeed, but RJJ was green himself, it was only his first worldtitle fight (as it was for B-Hop). And both as professional had fought an avarage of 20 opponents at that time:think

    We all forgot...so Roy Jones came back and owned Hopkins in the interview to let him know he still has that W over him.

    Not just with one hand but with a body full of steroids.

    I don't buy that the right hand was so badly damaged.

    Was it 100%? Maybe not.

    Was it in fact injured? I highly doubt it.

    It is a great win for Roy, but to claim he did it with one hand would be bull****. I'm a fan of both fighters, however, and prefer not to bicker over this matter. They both went on to achieve greatness.

    And anyway isn&#8217;t Roy Jones a left handed fighter taught to write with his right hand?

    Isn&#8217;t Roy Jones a left handed Northpaw?
