Could anyone in the history of boxing ever beat a prime Roy Jones Jr.?

and this is why your contributions here can't be taken seriously

 

yes because i value the opinion of esb like i do my own life

the general consensus on here is so off the mark its laughable,like yourself.

I understand you, but thousands wouldn't!

socrates, you know boxing but i also know you troll these threads for shits and giggles. glen johnson was a troll post, admit it and move on

 

was it? was it really? or did i touch a nerve?

lighten up jorodz,I've only got one nerve left, and you're getting on it.

im only messing,relax.

 

haha **** man, you're kinda alright sometimes

 

if you didn't follow roy jones career and know nothing about him just say so:good the forum is here to educate people like yourself

 

and what gifts did he get from back pocket refs?

or are you forgetting that its judges that score the fight!!

 

i think he's just implying that most of his stoppages were bought. some were premature perhaps but i doubt there were shennanigans going on and to be honest, most of what i've seen the end wasn't far anyway even in those quick stoppages

 

Don't forget the black-rimmed spectacles.

 

certain stoppages that come to mind that maybe can be construed to be premature from memory:

Byron Mitchell - and I'm being kind here, Calzaghe, after being knocked down for the 1st time his career got up and straight away floored Mitchell. Calzaghe then proceeded to land about 30 unanswered punches knocking Mitchell into the ropes, he was staggering badly. He could have got a standing count.

Peter Manfredo - ok it was that **** O'Connor as the ref, but he did tell Manfredo to start punching, the only problem I had with it was Calzaghe was throwing punches that weren't landing but Manfredo was content to duck and stay there. Even Leonard stated that Manfredo would have been stopped.

 

Horrid, only if you are a big Jones fan.:smoke

 

manfredo was the big one and there was a stoppage earlier in calzaghe's career (i wanna say veit but...) that was stopped just a bit before a proper knockout would have occured. it seemed quick as the fella didn't look hurt but calzaghe was going in for the kill. either way, he kills with volume not power and those kinds of stoppages always get some kind of grief

 

he would be favored against anyone but all it takes is one decent shot and he will be ko'd...when he stepped up after YEARS of mandos and clowing around he got KTFO...still tuf to beat though in his prime

 

how the **** does leonard know??? manfrdo has been nothing short of a warrior his whole LIFE....he threw 50 slaps and didn't even mess his hair up....of course JC would have won but that was a bull**** stoppage....it is a world title fight not a golden gloves novice title!
