Roy Jones has to be the greatest fighter ever. Here's why..

:deal

 

stfu man roy weighted in the 180s many times before this.... he never was lost no 25lb muscle ffs get real !!

and look a the so called champs he fought at these weights
Dont be stupid he beat Ruiz in the 190lb range and barley beat A tarver or whoever the **** !!


this is ridiculous, Holyfield fought guys 40lbs heavier than him a lot , nothing special happened here !!!

 

hahahaha...it wasn't just my opinion.many thought that tarver had been robbed....and he was.

you may think my opinion is ****....but nowhere near as **** as your ability to score fights.:deal

 

goddamn, bull**** stats are easy !!!

David Haye beat a guy about 110lbs heavier than him , haye was a former 190lb cruiserweight !!

Is that unique...YES

Did Ali ever do that...NO

Did Ray Robinson ever do that...NO

Does it mean anything given the status / skillset of the boxers involved....HELL NO

 

Yeah and who did hagler ever beat? A welterweight and a blown up lightweight, bravo to him. Roy would have whooped his ass.

 

atsch another one who can't score fights properly.

 

i give roy credit for picking up the pace at the end.....but he still lost that fight ...clearly.

 

Laugh all you want, his legacy is fighting little guys while roy fought b-hop, toney, virgil hill. Any decent middleweight could beat duran and hearns.

 

atschatsch Hagler would have all those clowns for breakfast.

 

yeah,but the light-weight WAS duran.

and the welter-weight WAS tommy ****in hearns for crying out load.

and yes,i agree,jones probably would beat hagler...but it wouldn't be easy.

 

Haha yeah becuase toney roy and hopkins are the caliber of sibson, minter, and mugabi right. Hagler didnt fight any good middleweight, hes overrated. Then he loses his belt to a welterweight and retires like a baby.

 

Your point? Duran was losing to the likes of laing and sims when he moved up in weight and he was thoroughly schooled by benitez right before he fought hagler. Hardly a legacy fight.

 

Hagler is a legend who came up the hard way and became the most famous Middleweight champ of the last 30 years. He decimated Hearns in the most defining non-Heavyweight fight of the 1980s decade.

 

No way...

Clear but close victory for Roy.

I would like to see you scorecard of Tarver-Jones, which rounds do you think Tarver won? I would like to know.


Was it the loss of 18 lbs of muscle or was it Tarver’s size and power? Outlanded 120-111 by Tarver, first time Roy was outlanded by opponent in 22 fights tracked by CompuBox at that time. Roy did have 94-73 edge in connects in all important power punch
department, including a 26-17 edge in power connects in rounds 11 & 12, when the fight was up for grabs. Roy also had his highest output for fight in 11th & 12th, throwing 46 in 11th & 56 in 12th.
Tarver threw a total of just 12 power punches in rounds 3 thru 5 and landed just 2 of 22 in 6th round, as Jones swept those 4 rounds on all cards- the difference in fight. Overall Jones went 111 of 424 (26%), averaging 35 punches per round. Tarver went 120 of 504 (24%). Jones also landed 37% of his 94 power shots. Scoring: 114-114; 117-111 J; 116-112 J.)
