Ha! Yet another post that contains NOTHING! All you've got are insults and bull****. You'd make a good politician. You speak but don't say ANYTHING. You've humiliated nobody apart from yourself. I created an alt? Ha!
You've been schooled yet again and you know it. Accept it, and trust me you'll feel better. Denial will only eat you up and result in you humiliating yourself further:good.
Over where? Not in the US, I assure you. And I see no reason why Roy Jones, the man considered the best fighter, a more popular fighter, would entertain flying to the UK to fight some washed up version of Chris Eubank.
Yes, in the US, they'd have lapped him up! Surely! King and HBO tried everything to get him but Eubank wouldn't entertain it, because he didn't like King and because American TV decided against investing in the epic Eubank-Benn I (whereas they did invest in Watson-Benn, Watson-McCallum, Benn-DeWitt, Benn-Barkley etc) with their reasons being that Eubank was (probably) fodder to be taken out in a couple of rounds at most - even yet to see him fight! The charisma of Chris Eubank was unparalelled.
He was ahead of everyone. It took a ****ing DQ for him to get up for a fight. Made Toney look crap by not playing by his rules. The Benns, the Eubanks were not on the Radar.
I disagree about footwork, hand speed, and reflexes. On top of that, Super Joe's volume was scores better than Jones. Lets also not forget if its a younger Joe, he used his power more and couldve exposed Toys glass even earlier in his career. Joe carried him in thatvlast fight. Poor Roy. Looked loke dog crap vs a past it shopworn Joe, all cut up and dejected, being taunted by the superior fighter. Btw. Super Joe and Roy were only 3 years apart
Jones NEVER had ANY intention of fighting Douglas, Holyfield, Sanders, Tyson, or Lewis. None. Has there ever been a fighter in history that had so many troubles making fights happen than Roy? :huh Seriously the guy is the one common denominator. He would always say he would fight someone then when it became contract time he would price himself out or come up with some ridiculous excuse. The Ruiz fight was a one time handpicked opponent that had not had a KO in almost 5 years leading up to that fight, who was flat footed, slow, with no skills, and a 'Jab and Grab' style that was easily nullified by Jay Nady. I am wondering who picked Jay Nady to referee that fight? How did that come about? Ruiz was never treated before or after by any referee like he was by Nady. The whole thing was a circus type atmosphere and the fight was like a sparring session. Very few punches thrown or landed in a lot of rounds by Jones. To blame all these other people for not making fights with Jones is delusional. There is NO WAY that many different fighters and promoters were the problem.
Holyfield 'lost' to Ruiz. That was Roy's 'excuse' for not fighting him. Holyfield welcomed a Jones fight years before that when he was WBA/IBF champion and he would have shattered Roy's Glass Jaw. Roy wanted none of Holyfield. Or anyone else for that matter. There is a reason he fought Ruiz and nobody else.
Were you actually BORN, that fvcking stupid or have you worked hard to achieve it. Nobody gives a fvck what the drug cheating over hyped, over rated ***** Jones was PLANNING. He could have been planning to sleep with Miss World for all it matters, except she would probably have told him to fvck off because, 1. He is too ugly. 2. He speaks unintelligible jibberish. What makes you even more stupid than him is you speak about his ramblings, so called plans and intentions as though they are gospel. Meanwhile in the REAL world, when he did eventually get round to fighting Hill, Virgil did NOT have a title. Neither did Eubank. Some people are saying that a Eubank fight at THAT TIME, would have made more financial sense. If you can't refute those opinions with statistical facts, stfu about what you think Jones intended to do, because other than silly little fanboys like you, no one gives a fvck about what Jones wished could have been.
