    you got to be british coz thats all im getting from your posts

    okay lets try this..lets pretend jones didnt hold any titles at all...

    roy jones had something that is worth more in this day and age - notoriety
    he was widely believed to hold the mythical P4P 'title', which made him 'the man' in exactly the same way floyd has been 'the man' for years

    so if junior witter (hypothetically) held a belt and offered floyd a unification, would you look at that the same way and say floyd ducked him?

    if you want the man - go earn it
    thats why nobody will remember junior witter or DM except the euros - they never left homesoil and earnt a shot at the big boys

    Not all all. It was a legal at the time, only the IBF considered a banned substance.

    Definition of steriod cheat: Taking an illegal substance per the rules you are fighting under. The rules Jones were fighting under banned the substance he tested positive for, ergo, he's a steroid cheat.

    Yes he was. The substance he tested positive for was an anabolic steroid.

    Like I said it was a legal but only the IBF considered it banned. Roy didn't know this, hence why the IBF never stripped him.

    :lol::lol::lol: clearly you have no idea what you're talking about. Collins was NEVER offered a fight with Jones. Collins offered Jones more than $3m, and it was actually real.

    Read the letter again & ask yourself why nothing ever happened with the 2nd sample & why the IBF never released details about which substance was found in his sample.

    No he didn't. Androstenedione, which he got caught for, was legal at the time. The IBF are only people to considered it banned. Roy was not a cheat.

    That's a weak comparison, son. Witter wasn't as well-known as Collins in the u.s., and his name was dirt after the stinky Judah and Corley fights. Who'd put the money up for Shitter anyhow :lol:.
