Ron Borges blasts Roy Jones

Post 78 on page 6, and then through to the end.

You're struggling to take on board simple information, so I'm afraid you're going to need extra classes. :good

 

so that's the point you're claiming that owned me?? :rofl:rofl

you get better every day.

FASTER FOOTWORK!! come to mention it, he had better footwork fullstop. so i'm claiming that one as well. :good

 

this is going to be fun. :yep

 

post 78??? :rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

the one where you talk crap? atsch

pretty much the whole post is wrong. i've corrected you on most of it. you didn't want to listen, so i went back to ignoring you.

why would i want to continue posting the same things to you when you don't to take anything on board?

there is someone who's been owned... you! by yourself. how the **** can you own yourself you ask??? i don't know, but you've just done it. congratulations. :rofl

 

How could John Ruiz have been a cherry pick from the start, when Roy met with Evander beforehand? If Evander had've beaten Ruiz in their 3rd fight in 2001, Roy and Evander would have fought in 2002. But after they drew, there was no title at stake. So Roy stayed at 175 for a little longer and weighed things up.

Go to thefreelibrary.com and type in Roy Jones Jnr, then scroll down to 2003. There's 4/5 different articles.

Roy wanted a Tyson fight after Ruiz, and while it was trying to be made, Tarver was constantly baiting him at every opportunity. He'd crashed the post Ruiz press conference, and was goading Roy in tv interviews and on radio etc. When other fights at HW weren't possible, he gave in and went back down for Tarver. Tarver really got under his skin.

 

Joe had BETTER footwork than Roy??

 

Ha! Which bits have you corrected?

Pretty much the whole post is wrong?

 

Yet to their credit, the fight happened in 2010. And despite the fact that most people dismissed it, still is one of the most significant fights of recent years to me in terms of what actually happened in the fight.

 

That's fair enough, my copy of Dark Trade is still at my cousins.

Do you think he was 100% genuine?

It's obvious why Roy wouldn't have been bothered about a rematch.

After the Washington fight, Toney said he'd make 175 for Roy. Who was he kidding? There's no way he could have made 175.

I didn't hear him mention Roy after the Jirov fight.

 

Roy was on his way up to 175 late in 96, against McCallum, and Hopkins was happy defending his MW title. Why would Roy have been interested at that point? Hopkins hadn't done much since he'd beaten Roy, and they were two weight classes apart.

The fight was irrelevant after Roy had come back down from HW in my opinion. There was no point in it, apart from for Hopkins to gain his revenge. The 2010 fight was a joke. Hopkins was trying desperately to convince people that the fight was relevant, and Roy's fight with Green had been stopped too soon.

He needed Roy's name on his resume to satisfy his ego.

But he blew the best opportunity in 2002, by initially wanting MORE money than Roy.

 

This borges talks lot of sense
