    they got that old school slick style and know every trick in the book. i think all 4 would have been able to hold their own but would have a few more L's. i think they wouldve done very well in the 80's

    I think he's mostly right, but if James Toney is considered then Roy Jones Junior and Evander Holyfield should be too.

    I could also argue the Brothers K and as a wildcard : Antonio Tarver

    #throwbacks = SLick

    Roy is not slick. Roy cannot box. Roy was talented.

    His comment was meaningless to begin with. There were other styles of fighting back then that also worked.

    Hopkins is a racist moron.

    All of the ridiculously overrated, overhyped American champions, especially the HW champions, of the past need asterisks next to their names because they were really only local champs, not world champs. They never fought any Eastern Europeans in pros, nor did they fight any Cubans or Africans.

    The iron curtain fell, now Eastern Europeans are allowed to turn pro and we're already taking over boxing and are dominating the higher weight classes. We're also dominating the amatuers. Most of those great amatuers will become great pros. This is just the beginning of the Eastern European domination.

    The Klitschkos would DOMINATE any era.

    Not sure they had the roids that Jones took back in the 60s so count him out.
