    Them getting ****ted on for KO losses and losses at this point of their careers can only mean one thing. They did some pretty badass incredible stuff. We have these threads about them getting put to sleep everyday.

    Are people really still that salty because 20 years ago Jones put a boxing masterclass on prime Toney? FFS, it was 20 years ago and people still hate on Jones.

    I don't think anyone is hating on Jones. I think most people remember how dominant he was back in the 90's and are actually scared for his health and safety at this point.

    he should've retired after being knocked out cold by Johnson. Seeing him get knocked out a couple more times since than against guys who couldn't share a ring with a prime version of Jones is what makes people say that he should just retire now. No one is laughing at him, I think people really fear for his mental and physical state.

    Whenever I read a Jones thread the inevitable KTFO losses constantly come up and people just start trashing him.

    Pacquiao was born in the Philippines so he has an excuse for being a Bob Arum pay check, but Roy Jones was born in the USA, so their is no excuse for his stupidity.

    RJJ is a disgrace, a certified ped user. Overrated as hell, he fought bums in his prime, a cherry picking glass jaw bum

    These are just new fans who know nothing about boxing. Real fans appreciate greatness.

    "this stage of their careers"

    I bet Roy wishes he was at the same stage of his career as Pac :lol:

    I get your point though....

    Still haven't gotten over the Toney clowning yet?

    It was 22 years ago. Time to move on.

    Had he retired after the Johnson KO, you know what people would have said? They would have called RJJ a quitter, a guy who couldn’t take the heat when things got tough.

    RJJ staying in the sport over a decade since that should be worthy of praise and respect. It would have been easy for Roy to walk away back then, but Roy didn’t wanna go out like that.

    Roy is king of Glass. Paquiao is an amateur.

    RJJ doesn't get much hate in this point of time more like concerns about his health

    Pac gets too much hate today because of the fl0mos spreading hate and propaganda.

    So do I. I think anybody who fights professionally is deserving of respect. Anybody who's ranked top 10 in their division has achieved something in their lives that most of us could only dream of doing.

    Now when you talk about ATG's it's a whole other level. I don't think I could trash people like that.

    The RJJ hate is terrible. You need a serious lack of boxing knowledge and respect for the sport to hate on the man. Pac is still worshipped by many and is the second best fighter of his generation.
