I don't have to reply to your posts anymore because you've long since stopped saying anything new. We get it: Jones realllllllllllly wanted to fight those guys and felt awful about having to crush so many tomato cans, but there were circumstances, man. His dad didn't want him to play with the big kids, they didn't want to fight him for a nickel and a Charms Blowpop, and he didn't want to go over to their houses because one time he did that and someone was mean to him and it wasn't fair! And one time he talked to Holyfield about potentially fighting him which PROVES he never ever ducked anybody, or else why would he offer to fight Holyfield? Ha! If Roy had've fought all those other guys you guys wouldn't give him any credit anyway because you hate him. Nunn? Ha! He was so old Roy would never be scared of him, he was just busy getting ready to fight Douglas but his dad made him pull out because Roy wasn't a grown man who made his own decisions. Rocchigiani? Ha! He wasn't even good! Michalczewski wouldn't come to America! Hopkins didn't deserve 50-50! Liles refused a million bucks! Benn was tough to make a fight with! Collins didn't deserve a fight because he had the WBO! McClellan wasn't viable! Roy was never scared of punchers, he fought everybody! Ruiz wasn't good and he wasn't a great win for any other heavyweights, but he was a great win for Roy because Roy was 34 and had 50 fights and was smaller, man! How many other people went from 154 to heavyweight and won a title, huh??? Yeah it wasn't THE title, and yeah it was a paper title that Lennox used to have and never lost, but it was the WBA, man, not some WBO bullsh*t. WBO...Ha! more like WBOgus!!!! Am I right guys? And if Jones was so scared to fight good fighters why did he fight Calzaghe?? Explain that one, smart guy. Or why did he burn muscle at age 34 after 50 fights and fight an extremely motivated southpaw? You call that ducking? Ha! If Roy had've stayed at heavyweight and fought Sanders or Byrd you would trash him. Even if Roy had've fought Lennox Lewis you wouldn't accept that. Admit it. You have no interest in being objective because you hate Roy. I'm winning. I'm showing you all these facts and telling you exactly what Roy was thinking yet you still won't accept that Roy fought the best people available and it wasn't his fault nobody would fight him! HBO even said so! Roy himself even said so! Liles' estranged trainer said so! Here's a link from Fat Dan where he says that Roy said he tried to make a fight! It even quotes Roy's advisor! How can you argue with this rock-solid evidence??? You can't, and that's why you dodge the evidence and bring up ridiculous things like "Roy never won the lineal championship in any division," or "Roy never fought the other champs in his division." So now Del Valle and Reggie Johnson weren't champs? Ha! It doesn't matter that just like Ruiz they were holding belts that really belonged to somebody else. That wasn't Roy's fault. What was he supposed to do, fight the lineal champ anyway even though he got stripped of a belt or two? Ha! And I don't hear you complaining that Calzaghe, Collins, and Froch vacated their belts instead of fighting their mandatories at the end of their careers. But Roy vacates his belt to not fight Douglas and then gets it back without fighting for it and everybody has a fit! Ha! It's always a double-standard with you. You won't give Roy credit for anything. Even if Roy had've fought McClellan at MW, Collins at SMW, DM at LHW, and Lennox at HW, you still would never give him credit. Admit it. :hi:
Why don't you like Cotto? Is it because he beat down Martinez? If so, you're not alone. Many ****s that had crush on Martinez feel just as you do
He's a good-looking guy. Deal with it. :bart (No I just have never liked Cotto's attitude/demeanor/son/use of the third person. And the fact that he quit against Margarito. And the fact that he keeps getting opportunities to fight cripples. And the fact that he just scuttled the Alvarez fight and is kind of in the way of the Floyd/Manny fight.)
This whole logic of because Roy fought Calzaghe when he was shot and broke means that he can't have ever ducked anyone is so completely out of touch with boxing reality it's painful. I'm pretty sure Roy Jones would fight Wlad Klitschko tomorrow for less money than what he turned down to fight Nunn or DM.
A few years back Jones was throwing Wlad's name around saying her wanted to fight him :rofl I remember Dan Rafael had a blog about it and was basically openly mocking Jones for being Delusional and asked why he didn't want these types of fights in his Prime.
Ranked in the top 3 of Ring Magazine's Top Ten Pound for Pound List for 10 consecutive years. Unless you are claiming he is top 20 ATG, you are probably not overrating him.
You quoting Dan Rafale now the guy who said Kelly Pavlik would,have knocked Hopkins out atsch Yeah he knows **** about boxing about as much as you !
What does that have to do with anything? Is there any journalist who is 100% right on picks? Are you always right when you pick a fight? :huh There is a reason why Boxing is called the Theater of the unexpected. I would be fine with a Wlad-Jones fight even now. Let Jones have a shot at THE Heavyweight Champion and lets see what happens.
He's a knowledgeable as you ..Thats why's I don't respect his opinion .. Right make Jones Wlad now why Rico so he can shatter his glas jaw
atsch He was scared of Nunn. And he only fought Tarver and Calzaghe, because he had no choice, right? He was scared of Collins, yet fought Toney, Ruiz and Hopkins etc. I despair. The only thing that's painful, is reading your biased BS posts. I see you weren't able to reply to my other post? I'm truly shocked.
Watching all you Roid Jones nut-huggers verbally masturbate over your PED cheat idol 24/7/365 has got to be the most nauseating spectacle a human being could ever possibly witness. And having to sit here and watch you all pat each other on the back and high-five each other like over excited school children everytime you think you've scored a point and managed to prove that Roid wasn't a glass-jawed PED fraud who ducked savage punchers like the plague and actually genuinely wanted to face Dariusz and Irish Stevie Collins and the rest of the fighters he was deathly afraid of makes me want to smash all your teeth in with a metal baseball bat. I don't even think The Bard himself would be able to find the right sequence of words to articulate how nauseating and cringeworthy you all are. Luckily, thanks to the infinite wisdom of the gods deciding to curse your idol with a mandible section that was forged out of the most brittle substance in the entire universe, instant relief from your delusional nut-huggery is never far away. You just go onto Youtube and type these magical words: 'Yall Musta forgot I got a glass jaw' [YT]o1Ay6UhettU[/YT] My personal favorite KO from Roid's highlight reel of him getting KTFO has got to be the Glen Johnson one. Watching him get knocked cold from an innocuous little love tap from a non puncher like Johnson is beyond hilarious. The Lebedev KO is absolutely delicious too. The best part about that one is watching Roid's stupid little baked bean head bobble around like a wine cork in rough seas as he stands there barely conscious with his head bowed in reverential awe at his master. The finishing shot that sent him crashing face first to the canvas was just the icing on the cake.
