    First video, RJJ spent too much postering and the second video was not RJJ. He did not move like him and damn, he was dark to be RJJ.

    I'm just saying, RJJ is brown and in the second video he is darker than Holmes from the first video. Maybe it is gainer. Just kidding. He doesn't even move like RJJ unless this is video when he first started as a amatuer. If you were there and you say it is him, I believe you.

    Stupidity? I am just comparing both videos. You have a brown and what I am use to seeing moves next to a black RJJ. If I am wrong, oh well. He must of been in the sun all day before he did this sparring. Again, it must of been when he first started boxing and was hanging with Michael Jackson.
     
  9. thats clearly jones in both videos numnuts the first ones bad quality :-(

    No need for name calling. Like I said, if I am wrong, then I am wrong. With that said, there was no need for insults.

    One of the best to ever do it. Roy had a great jab when he used it. He was one of the few fighters ive seen that didnt need to set punches up with the jab or work behind the jab to have sucess in close without having to take 3 to land 1. But, because of this as he got older and started slowing down, he couldnt get away with it anymore and never really went back to working behind his jab like every other fighter. Cause at one time he wasnt like any other fighter. Ironically, he was too good for his own good and the things that made him great in a way sped up his downfall.
