Carlos Monzon vs. Roy Jones Jr.

That's just one fight, with an injured right hand against the best middleweight of the 1990s and 2000s. Monzon is nowhere even close to Hopkins skill-wise or cleverness-wise, he looks primitive and one-dimensional compared to B-Hop.

 

You still haven't learnt. When other fans are presenting infallible cases to excuse their hero's losses late in his career here you are chairing debates that need not even get deep and refusing to let go. Jones showed undeniable (to an unbiased viewer) signs of slippage in the first Tarver fight which was confirmed in the rematch and rammed down our throats in the Johnson fight. Let it go for gods sake.

 

I know. I don't read threads anymore when he enters them.

 

Does he not realise he does good old Roy more harm than good by the way he rambles on about the Tarver and Johnson matches? As a fan he's like that punch drunk fighter that just doesn't know when to let go.

 

You are posting irrelevant statements that can be considered flood and nothing else. What I wrote in my post was what had been - Glen Johnson was very ineffective with his punching accuracy while Jones was on the ropes. Actually, same as Tarver had been, most punches getting stuck in the block.

 

Leave Arturo Gatti out of this.

 

You'd never get it would you.

 

Hahahaha. Hey, any chance of human relations with one of those spunks before you axe them?

:yikes

 

You'd never get it that it does more harm to allow completely false statements about Jones spread freely on the forum. Such as the one that Jones is vulnerable to pressure or can't fight off the ropes.

 

You'd have to ask Mr Kool, he's the axeman. I've been trying to get the chick on the right to post her boobs for awhile now. It's almost as futile as trying to get Roy Jones and DM in the ring together. :verysad

 

If she ends up posting, i'm your man!! Holler, or better still the one on the right would do me just dandy

 

She frequents the lounge. Feel free to try and crack her Winky Wright style defense.



Oh yeah. back on topic.


Tarver KO 2 Jones

 

Sounds like i need me some Bernard Hopkins

 

Monzon fought the equal of and the superior to Hopkins, but Hopkins never met, much less defeated anyone the equal of Monzon. I know you won't agree, but I wanted to tell you how wrong you are. Monzon W15 Hopkins.

 

You are probably correct. Hopkins himself was recentley asked in an interview who he considered his greatest threats in the history of the middleweight divison. Monzon was the only fighter Hopkins said he could see beating him, he even said he'd probably beat Robinson at 160 as he wasn't as perfect at Middleweight than welter. He also said him against Hagler would be 50/50, an all out war that could go either way. But he admitted Monzon would probably defeat him.
