Comparing Roy jones Jr at LHW to Artur beterbiev is crazy talk

1. He wasn’t.

2. Eight of Artur’s ten world level opponents were B to C level.

 

He lost a good 10 pounds of healthy muscle, genius.


And please keep saying that his resume at LHW was laughable.


Because it’s absolutely hilarious when you compare it to Artur’s LHW resume.

Just 10 world level fighters.

With 8 of those being at B to C level.

 

It’s nothing to do with nostalgia.

It’s how they’d have matched up on the night stylistically.

Artur has done nothing to have given you such confidence.

The Bivol fight perfectly highlights the success and the gameplan that Roy would have employed.

 

Context.


Roy had fought almost 3 x as many pro fights, in a 20 year career.


So how are you going to make a statement like that?


Artur has only fought for 10 years, where he’s only fought 10 world level fighters, in just the one division.

 

What do you mean he wasn’t compromised in Tarver 1?

 

BS.

Roy broke his nose and made him hesitant.


Norman Stone was literally hitting him and screaming at him in-between the rounds.


“Why are you f-in waiting on this guy for Johnny?!”

“Go out and fight him!”

 

And they were former MW’s, right?

How can a HW be tailor made for any LHW in his mid 30’s?

SMH.

 

Roy’s last top level win was 6 years before he fought Green.

 

Jeff was unfortunately a C level punching bag at that stage.

He should have been long retired.

 

Great post.

 

Absolute BS.

You haven’t got a clue.

 

You haven’t got the knowledge to even debate this, let alone make an argument of it.

 

Based on what exactly?

 

Why would he 100% have ducked him?

Also, Beterbiev is very hittable, and as also being dropped by lesser guys.

 

Probably the dumbest post I’ve ever read.
