Floyd "Il Never look like Roy Jones"

Read my post. I said "went after them when they were prime"!

Hey you fight who's in front of you. Sometimes a ranking means nothing. I personally loved RJJ as a fighter, but at the same time I know the sport and being a fan didn't cloud my judgement when it came to some opponents:nono Let's be honest here...175 wasn't a packed division at all! Regardless of what ppl think RJJ is an alltime Great IMO, and nothing will change that. I'm not talking top 50 either. I'm talking top 15!

 

Don't waste any more time kg - some people will never learn

 

Margarito just mentioning that name in the same sentence as mayweather shows me the breed of clown I am dealing with on here. Boxing SPECIAL:huh

 

don't twist history. it was not a choice of gatti or harris. he was already harris' mandatory when he fought the ELIMINATOR with bruseles. so there was no need to fight bruseles if he was looking for a title shot. it was there already.

 

Again you're talking bout Floyd at the higher weights not his best weight, and I think it's weighing in heavily on your argument!

 

Damn the blind leading the blind on this mothertrucker. PBF and ROY did that same thing. They cleaned out one division moved up and fought who made them money. With Roy, everybody made him money b/c you paid to see the ROY show. But Roy fought more GOOD fighters. But LOST to some of those guys. And floyd never lost moving up 5 weight classes. There is an argument for both cases.

 

Ok so then you are stating that from 130-140lbs Floyd ran and waited? Are you kidding me Pea!!! What you just stated about RJJ is exactly what Floyd did!

 

But that's all he needed to do to avoid being hit. Why run around all over the ring (Floyd) when you can avoid danger by a slight, subtle movement and still be in a position to counter.

Roy, hands down, was the better ring general and boxer.

 

34, he lost the first Tarver fight. lol. But that is a good point. But I am no Roy hater. So I can say they are both Dominate fighters that you are not just going to beat. You have to train hard and have a serious game plan. Or you will lose. Roy was very, very unorthodox.

 

I think he's just saying that even though he's 30, he still can't grow any facial hair.

 

I'm sorry but Roy Jones Jnr is the better guy for me. I think Roy, in his prime at Super-Middle or Light-Heavy, is about as close to a genuinely unbeatable fighter as I've ever seen. No disrespect to Floyd but Roy Jones Jnr was toying with guys like Bernard Hopkins and James Toney, future legends. Roy knocked guys out with two hands behind his back. He won a legitimate title at heavyweight against a more-or-less legitimate titleholder. Its a lot more impressive to go from middleweight to heavyweight and win titles than it is to go from 135lbs to 154lbs.

 

Good night Folks.....debate on!!

:thumbsup

 

Wrong. He will choose the path of the most money, which Margarito does not offer at present time.

 

UH dont floyd do the same thing. I never seen floyd run around the ring. He always goes to the center of the ring. Then its the other guy that wants no part of Floyd in the center of the ring. Learn boxing. Floyd is elusive, Spinks RUNS. Floyd is always there he lands his shots. If you ever watched his fights, he always finds a way to the center of the ring. And the other guy wont dare fight him there. They push, hold, grab and do anything to push him against the ropes. That aint running my friend. Go step in the ring with a boxer and just plant your feet and stand there and come forward against a bigger guy. Then call me to talk about it if you are comprehensive

 

youre right, one has the courage to fight the best possible opposition . . . and the other is a coward.
