    I will reserve judgement on PBF for the time being as he is retired and I think he will be coming back. I am not sure his body of work is finished just yet. If he does not come back then yes, I will feel similar toward PBF.

    Whole forum? It is a minority of Glass Jaw Roy fan boys or nuthuggers. There are plenty of good Roy Jones fans on here. I have never said Roy had no skill just that he has a Glass Jaw and handpicked the majority of his fights.

    Half of Roy's fan boys on here are 18 years old and never even saw him fight the majority of his career they are just spewing BS.

    Andrew Golota, Fres oquendo, Hasim Rahman, Evander Holyfield and I guess u can name a few more upper level heavies were handpicked to beat Ruiz or appointed to beat Ruiz easily, but for some reason they didn't get the job done...... And most of those fights were after he lost to Roy...

    Eric Harding, didn't he beat a guy name Antonio Tarver before he got to Roy~??

    His last stoppage win was against Clinton Wood... Didn't he go on and win a world title after that~??

    Jorge Castro had himself a hall of fame career since losing to Roy...

    Old man Virgil Hill won a cruiserweight belt after taking a bad body shot from Roy......

    Julio Cesar Gonzalez.... didn't he beat the guy Roy wasn't gonna go overseas to fight... And didnt that happen right after his lost to Roy~?? And I think that made him the first Mexican to win a world title above 168 or something along those lines.... Up until Cloud took him apart, he floated in the Top 10 for a while...

    James Toney and B-Hop are self explanatory..........

    Not so sure about the smoke and mirrors.... Shaun George fought an older Richard Hall and didn't look half as good as Roy did....

    But for every Castro and Toney, there's a Glenn Kelly..........

    I agree with you must of the time man. However, Roy is an ATG and will go down n history as one of the greatest fighters of all time. Big respect 2 Roy for fightn the p4p best fighter n the world. Roy Jones and Calzaghe are true champions and gentlemen!
