    No that's a puncher. Punchers hate boxers. But swarmers love boxers, especially ones that don't have great power.

    I think it's better to be good at everything than to be the best at one thing. If you're good at everything, you can adjust when something doesn't work.

    Really? One shot on that chin and RJJ would be finished..Timing beats speed.

    Jones never showed any sign of a bad chin until he came back down from hw. GGG would be frozen by Jones speed power and reflexes at 160 getting out boxed and beat the hell up.

    It all comes together quite nicely when your opposition is'nt of the highest caliber.
    Just look at Pacquiao's fights with slow plodding welters and then looks at any of his fights with Juan Manuel Marquez.
    All of a sudden Pacquiao isn't quite being able to step where he wants to step. :yep

    Better fighters tried but couldn't quite find Roy's sweet spot.

    A prime Jones reflexes were beyond belief. P4P the the best reflexes I've ever seen in my lifetime.

    Lomachenko's footwork is the best in decades.
