    Evening comrads, I was just trawling through the immense boxing library at the Team Elite Corporation headquarters and decided to take an indepth look at the wonderfull career of Roy Jones Jnr.

    Watching a number of Roys outstanding performances around 1999 and 2000 left me shell-shocked, the incredible power, accuracy, and athleticism of Jones left my pondering whether I was watching the greatest fighter of all time at the very peak of his powers.

    Below i've posted a link to an absolutely mouth watering display of boxing greatness where Roy Jones Jnr brutally tortured the highly rated Richard Hall via one sided beatdown, systematically breaking him down with superman like power and speed.

    Jones made Richard Hall look like a 5 fight amateur but Hall was no ordinary fighter himself, he was indeed a tough as teak Jamaican who had worked his way up though the light heavyweight rankings via series of impressive victories over the likes of Eric Rheinhart (13-27-1), Joe Harris (5-22-0), Karl Willis (22-7-1) and Fabian Garcia (18-13-1) virtually beating the door down to P4P King Roy Jones Jnr's front door.


    What followed next was a thing of beauty, enjoy the footage of what was almost a superhuman performance from peak Roy Jones Jnr, I'm not sure any fighter in history could have lived with this jaw dropping display of speed, accuracy and power.

    I will not click. BTW.. you know Hall gave Dariusz M one heck of a battle on his own turf, right? Couldn't have been that much of a bum.
     
  3. Roy Jones was an unbelievable phenomenon, first fighter I've seen turn a fight into a trick show.

    Seeing as how Hall tested positive too, I'd say it was fairly even. Too bad Michalczewski struggled to beat up the dish washer.

    Excellent performance, whenever Roy opened up Hall just had no answer. He could have got the guy out in a couple of rounds if he wanted to.

    The stoppage was really poor by the ref, Hall could have been badly hurt in there. I think that's the show where Larry Merchant said the ref should have been pistol whipped:lol:

    HALL: What's happened is at the time when I fought Roy Jones Jr. he tested positive for steroids and the WBA was supposed to strip him, that never came around...


    BRC: HOLD UP, did you say Roy Jones tested positive for Steroids and was supposed to be stripped of the belt but wasn't?****

    HALL: Yeah, the WBA never did anything about it.


    BRC: Richard this is the first I've ever heard of that, with respect to Roy Jones... I don't know how steroids, which make your muscles big and dense would help any fighter, especially one who uses his quickness to beat guys.

    HALL: Well he tested positive for it. But anyway my contract with...


    BRC: Wait a second, you have to explain this to the readers... You said Roy Jones tested positive for steroids and then what happened from there?

    HALL: What happened from there was, my promoter was Don King at the time and Don told me that we was going to get his lawyer involved because Roy Jones tested positive for steroids and that I was going to be the (WBA) champion. Then the commissioner was notified but then nothing went through; I don't know why, maybe my name isn't big enough, Roy Jones has more power than I do.


    BRC: Now did they say that you tested positive for steroids too or was it just Roy?

    HALL: When we did it they tried to say I tested positive for steroids but I told them I don't take drugs, I went to my doctor and their (the Commission) doctors and nothing came up.


    BRC: What I don't understand is how any boxer would take steroids, let alone one who has the quickest hands in the sport, they can't help in a fight, steroids dense you up. They might make you look good but you wouldn't be able to fight a lick. Think of Tye Fields, that guy looks like Tarzan but fights like Jane when he's in there with a guy who has a pulse.


    HALL: You know I don't know, I'm not a doctor, all I'm saying is he (Roy Jones Jr.) tested positive for steroids on the night that I fought him and they didn't take any action towards him.

    Damn, I would like to know what dishes Hall was washing, to be that ripped up and 10x's the acceptable testosterone.. I gotta get a new dining set. Then maybe I could give one of the best LHW's in the world a run for their money.

    Fights like these are where all the garbage men rumors come from... DM struggles with guys, but when Roy makes it look so easy they are reduced to dishwashers and garbage men. I guess Roy wasn't talking out of his ass after all when he said "I just make them look like nobody" threads like this support that statement.
