Did Roy Jones start losing at LHW when his competition stepped up?

Well done you spotted my deliberate testing mistake. Whine atsch.
Still one was a letter missed out and the other was the completely wrong word used. Major difference and hardly pwnage.

You Pavlik'ed me?? What with this reply? Where I showed you how you had called Jones Jnr a paper champ. I just showed how you pwned yourself in a major way.

Ive got to ask, but why are you crumbling so much lately? You used to come on here with the insults and now seem to be getting hurt.
If you want to keep it civilised, then I fine, say, and we can cut out the insults and keep it respectful. But if not, stop getting so upset or I will have to get a new sparring partner who can keep pace

 

Calzaghe also said all of this

*THIS VIDEO IS ON YOUTUBE: 'Roy Jones jr looks ahead to Calzaghe'*

Steve Bunce: When did Joe first pop up in a conversation?

Roy Jones: When he beat Chris Eubank I started watching him then.

Steve Bunce: 1997

Roy Jones: I knew it then...but he then kinda backed down on the opponents he was fighting so I RELEASED THE IDEA OF IT [fighting Joe].

So Jones admits he was aware of Joe early on, but wasn't interested in fighting him.


BBC, 21st November 2001.
"It's all very well being the best in the world, but you need big names for big fights," he reflects.

A fight with the Eric Lucas, the WBC champion, is a possibility, but unification fights are notoriously hard and expensive to arrange.

As is a bout with Roy Jones.

"To be honest I'm getting quite fed up with it," Calzaghe said.

A bout against the undisputed light heavyweight champion has been the subject of ongoing speculation.

"It's difficult because of the different networks involved. He's with HBO and I'm with Showtime - that's a massive obstacle in itself.

"Secondly, you've got to ask yourself whether Roy Jones would want to fight me.
"At the moment he picks his own opponents, fights the easiest guys he can and gets a lot of money for beating them.

"I'm dangerous and I can take the mega money out of his pocket. Why would he want to fight me?


Jones himself made the statement that he did not go fight him because it was too risky be it in the UK or states...he stated that on National TV while commentating on Calzaghe/Hopkins those words exactly get a copy of the fight and find out yourself....If Jones said it himself then any argument you have is out the window because Jones stated nothing about why should I have...I was ranked #1 he was ranked # whatever he said...IT WAS TOO RISKY FOR ME AT THAT TIME ESPECIALLY IF I HAD TO GO TO THE UK... he added nothing in on it....


roy jones the man who fought Richard Frazier the part time cop and then bragged about his greatness afterward....

Former four-division champion Roy Jones Jr, speaking with The Sunday Times, responded to Joe Calzaghe's recent claim of chasing Jones for several years and being brushed aside. Calzaghe spoke with The Sunday Mirror and appeared to have some newfound hostility when Jones' name came up.

"I spent five or six years chasing Jones and he acted like he never even knew my name," said Calzaghe. "Suddenly, I beat Hopkins in Vegas and Jones wants to be my neighbor - it's ridiculous. If a fight with Jones made sense from a cash point of view, then it could happen, but he is notorious for asking for too much money."

Jones says that he viewed Calzaghe as a possible opponent several years ago, but at the time he saw no reason to travel to Wales to chase the fight. Now that Calzaghe is the bigger star, Jones is willing to make the fight anywhere.

“I saw Joe as a potential opponent a long time ago,” Jones said. “But I had my eyes on higher things, such as winning the heavyweight title, so it was nothing against Joe, I love everything about him. He’s a fun guy, an entertaining guy, a good person. We took some pictures together with his sons after the fight on Saturday and we’ve talked on the phone. But boxing is business. When I was the best pound-for-pound boxer in the world it wouldn’t have been smart for me to go and fight Joe.

”You don’t go to somebody else when you’re the best, they must come to you, so I wouldn’t take the risk, and why would I? Why would I meet that challenge when I’m already the best? Why would I go to your country and give you a chance to allow the powers that be to take a close decision and give it to you?"

Jones says a fight with Calzaghe is the best fight in boxing, even better than a possible rematch between Oscar De La Hoya and Floyd Mayweather Jr, scheduled for September.

“But right now this is the best fight out there, better than the Oscar De La Hoya-Floyd Mayweather rematch because we all know what the outcome of that fight is going to be – another win for Floyd. You don’t know the outcome of this fight, however, so it’s a fight people are going to want to see. There’s suspense, and that’s what makes for a big fight," Jones says.

Thats a very good post

 

So SImperial and Kissdatass couldnt answer the questions that were put to them.
Well it looks like you two have now been well and truly found out and run off of this thread :hi:

 

Where you mention Toney. He was able to win a world title when he was found guilty of peds and then stripped. After that he looked lucky against Rahman, lost to Peter and had another tough fight with an unknown HW. In fact I cant really recall him doing well at HW again.

 

Still hung up on me. Get over it

 

Your're making a complete fool of yourself now, by dodging the questions posed.
Now
What bit do you disagree with?

Michalczewski was stripped of his WBA LHW title that he won
Michalczewski had to lose his IBF LHW title also due to being forced to have to defend his title within 30 days when he has just fought the LHW champ
Michalczewski beat Rocchigiani who was wrongly stripped of his WBC LHW title, a title which was just handed to Jones when he said he wanted it back, even though Rocchigiani fairly won the title after beating a fighter Jones wouldnt fight for years. So here Jones was just handed the WBC title.
Jones was just handed The Ring belt that he didnt beat the champ for.

What do you disagree with? Michalczewski beat the man. Jones didnt.

Disputed undisputed championsIf a fighter wins all the titles but is stripped by one organization of its title, he may continue to be considered the undisputed champion.

To become the lineal champ you either have to beat the champ or if the title is vacant, the numbers 1 & 2 have to meet, sometimes the #1 & 3 are accepted. Of course this is a Ring magazine system.

Maske and Hill fought to decide who became the champ (Hill). Michalczewski beat the winner (Hill), so Dariusz was the lineal champ.
Jones only picked up the paper titles.
Now when I say paper titles its like J C Chavez Jnr is a world champ, but hes not the man at MW, thats Martinez who was stripped of his WBC title.
Does that help you understand??


Be honest Imperial. If you cannot answer, dont shame yourself anymore just admit that and grow up
