    As the resume counting, beating DM would be top 3 below beating Toney
    at 168 and getting (or being "awarded" with) historical title from Ruiz.
    Beating Hopkins early is just not bigger than winning other single titles at LHW.

    If the titles were not involved then beating prime DM would be much better
    that beating green Hopkins, weight drained Toney or limited Ruiz
    (who btw was also fighting against J. Nady that night).

    What about beating a Toney that beat the likes of McCallum, Nunn, Johnson, and Jirov? Or are we only focusing on the negatives?


    And who else absolutely and thoroughly dominated James Toney like Jones did? People blow a load over the fact that Joe Calzaghe shut out an extremely limited fighter in Jeff Lacy and yet try to minimize Roy Jones shutting out a great fighter in James Toney. :lol:

    When the **** did he do that??

    First you say this:
    Now, you mention a fight in which Hill was KO'd prior to fighting Dariusz.

    What are all these ****ing mystery fights you keep pointing to??

    I thought Hill went the distance with Michalczewski?

    Hill had just gotten the **** beaten out of him by Dariusz before Roy beat him. Beating Dariusz at that time would've been far bigger than beating Hill.

    Hopkins and McCallum are questionable as well. Hops was only a rising contender when Roy beat him, and perhaps not even among the top 5 in his division yet. McCallum had just been upset by Tiozzo and was no longer rated among the very top of his division. Conversely, Dariusz was considered the #1 best and most distinguished opponent available for Roy at LHW for quite some time.

    It doesn't matter if he went the distance or not. A win is a win.

    Hill was a great boxer who could trouble a lot of boxers and had a fantastic chin.

    I remember Michalczewski statements that he "would fight Roy Jones Jr. for free"... yeah right. It was all about money, they both didn't want to fight till the money is good. There were also issues about location of the fight - Germany or USA.
