hagler, hearns, monzon, robinson, foster, spinks, **** after seeing wat tarver and johnson did do you think he'd last 12 with julian jackson ?
although Hagler is my favorite alltime, he is too slow to fend off Roy. An old SRL gave him trouble, a Prime Roy would toy with him. not in your wildest dreams...hearns doesn't last 4 rounds with Prime Royatsch no SRR at 160? WTF? dude, get real.. good jokes :rofl perhaps, as spinks had the mass advantage, but a prime roy would have given it a run for its money... ahhhhhh, now it makes sense. you are just another dumb kid who has only watched roy in the 2000's :nut gotcha :good
At 168, no-one in history beats the 1994-96 version of RJJ IMO, and you'd have to go all the way back to the days of Ezzard Charles to find someone who'd stand a realistic chance. At 160 and especially 175, there are a few fighters I'd back to beat Roy.
At Light Heavyweight I can name about 6 that would not only beat him but KHTFO: Charles Moore Spinks Foster Tunney Moorer That is not to mention I think Hagler and others would own him. You can't have a fragile Glass Jaw like Roy does and beat the legit ATG's at Light Heavyweight. This Roy Jones being 'unbeatable' stuff is laughable. The guy NEVER even beat a unified, linear, or undisputed champion in this era of alphabet belts. He handpicked his whole career.
Why did he handpick Hopkins, Toney & A ****ing heavyweight oh yeah later on he also handpicked a guy whod knocked him out. nice one.
I don't think he handpicked Tarver. The rest? Hell yes he did. Not to mention he was scared to death to give a more seasoned Hopkins a rematch. And Roy fighting John Ruiz is THE definition of handpicking an opponent. He handpicked the absolute worst beltholder at the time at Heavyweight. Thanks for making my point.
