Criticizing Jones' resume

Maybe you should be reminded how Roy was robbed in the Olympics and had a right to be wary of traveling. What was DM's excuse? Of course you have me on ignore...a conveniant way of not having to answer questions that dont suit your agenda. :yep

 

His agenda is crystal clear, its why hes gotten throttled so bad in this thread.

 

This thread

Seems the TS has tucked tail and left.

 

He is one of the greatest boxers to ever lace em up.

 

Why do the fan boys act like Roy is the only fighter that has been the victim of a bad Decision? An Olympic result has no bearing on a pro career. Many fighters are ripped off in the pros when it actually matters and still will travel. Jones wasn't the first or only fighter to have this happen to.

 

First off, im not a fan boy of any fighter. Second, that Olympic result most certainly had a bearing on how he thought, how could it not? And third, assuming you're correct, than why did DM never travel? As Ive said from the beginning, im not choosing a side, im only pointing out both their careers were very similar in these aspects and the OP is a moron for trying to blame just Roy for these situations.

 

Roy has a huge sample size of not making fights across 4 Divisions. DM doesn't have that problem. Roy fought virtually NONE of his contemporaries as was already shown in this thread. He has a detailed History of this. Does DM have the same history? Not only did Jones not fight DM he seemed to avoid many others also.

 

Your a clown Roy actually has a better resume than DM

 

Loudan has already been over this multiple times in this thread as well as others. Im not going to rehash that as it is beating a dead horse. I just want to know why DM never traveled or pursued a fight with Jones in America. People are trying to blame Jones, but the truth is both were arrogant and not willing to take a chance or budge for the other.

 

We aren't comparing resumes here. DM didn't miss as many of his contemporaries as Roy did. The list documented in this thread made it even worse for Roy than I thought it was. It isn't like he missed one or 2 fights the guy literally didn't fight ANY of his contemporaries but James Toney and that was it. You can be in denial all you want the Facts are there for everyone to see.

 

Don't give a rip about DM. This is about all the other contemporaries Jones did not fight. I also don't care about who would have won as I don't really have an opinion. Jones missed many more fights than just DM.

Also strange why Roy was ok with traveling after being savagely KOed a few times. I will ask again other than Jones was there a pattern of DM not fighting his contemporaries?

Because we all know how long the list is that Jones didn't fight. With that many fighters it can't possibly be all the other guys fault like Louden likes to claim :rofl

 

Actually there is a long list of fighters DM didnt fight. Funny thing is, Jones fought many of them. Point is both guys missed plenty of fighters, Jones happened to fight the slightly better overall comp though. And Im not blaming just one guy. Ive already said it was both their faults.

 

Are you kidding?

DM's resume is garbage compared to Roy's... Go and look at the list of top 10 rated LHW fighters from that time, look at the ones Roy fought, and look at the ones DM fought (very few) and that will tell you all you need to know. DM's resume lacks nearly every big name that Roy's lacks except a lot more... You can't be that biased.

Why didn't DM move up and fight Lennox Lewis? You bash Roy for not doing it.

I can't even begin to grasp how you can be critical to Roy yet support what DM did with his career.

 

DM didnt fight Roy who was his contemporary genius !


Outside of that who the hell did he fight ? He avoided his mandos in Guthrie and Devalle who Roy beat yet you want to talk about ducking
One again Jones has a better resume yet you want to say DM Didnt duck people yeah ok
