    'a' Roy Jones or 'the' Roy Jones?

    How many are you seeing?

    I think a Jones flurry has put you on ***** street.

    Once a fighter has been concussed and KO'ed hard his tolerance and ability to take head shots decreases sufficiently. Some even become like robots with an off button being their jaw/temple, just tap them sufficiently on the jaw and they would turn off.

    Boxers differ from the average jaw not in their ability to take head shots, but to see them coming and tuck the head in and absorb them properly.

    Hence Jones would likely go down from any well placed shot that was thrown with a relaxed hand and has some power and weight behind it.

    Oh for crying out loud. Any grown man can knockout any other grown man if he hits him right.

    Yeah. I'm about 240 right now so I could lay him out if it was a clean shot.
