    George Foreman knocks him unconscious and twitching in less than 60 seconds.

    Poor Ingo could relate to that outcome.

    Unconscious is generous. Jones might end up like McClellan in this fight.

    Did Roy Jones Jr. **** you off for some reason?
    When you put him in fights where he can die?
    Liston, and now Foreman :)

    No, I just put him in those fights because others are putting Roy Jones Jr in fights that he could easily win. Let's see Jones in fights that would be competitive, not one sided.

    Could Roy not outperform Peralta?

    Richard! You are making me quote my own post, from your other thread! Please substitute George Foreman's name for Sonny Liston's name, and George for Sonny above. I thank you!

    Could Joe Frazier not outperform Peralta against Foreman?

    Could Lennox Lewis not outperform past-prime Tony Tucker against McCall?

    Could Thomas Hearns not overperform past-prime Duran vs Hagler?

    It's more complicated than who's better h2h between two fighters

    Again Roy Jones Jr has been matched against competition that he could easily beat in fantasy fights, I was trying to make a point. I would like to see Jones Jr against guys who could give him a tough fight, maybe against someone like Tommy Hearns at 175 lbs.
