That was the only fight I can recall that Jones was willing take punches to give punches. He did get hit with couple good punches by Griffin, but...
There was swagger alright, but this was Jones I think at his best. Thornton fight he was good, but I thought he was just incredible in the Sosa...
160 - Hopkins (UD12) - Tate (KO2) 168 - Toney (UD12) - Pazienza (KO6) 175 - Tarver (MD12) - Griffin (KO1) I like the Pazienza fight since it...
Jones made it just another fight. It's crazy.
How can that be even questioned?
Ya, found one that had Jones as lineal LHW after his victory over Toney. Jones - Toney - Barkley - Hearns.
Who were the lineal title holders at the time?
I've got three kids, so understand. Eggs, sardines and organ meats are cheap and better for you then muscle meats.
Maybe it's the andro?
Jones also did pre fight testing for his next two fights which did not test positive.
Jones and Hall tested positive for androstenedione. Hall was 10x over the limit, Jones 5x.
That's a good list, since it's supposed to be in his prime. Not including fights at 168 of course, Jones fought Sosa, McCallum, Griffin (x2),...
Did Hall explain why he was 10x over the limit (higher then Jones)? Or was the onus just on Jones?
JasonHensley - to add to that, heavyweight talk started for Jones in 1995.
Did Hall ever explain why he tested positive, or have any comments?
