    " And they got the nerve to say I aint fight nobody I just make 'em look nobody!" Roy is an ATG, he is going into the HOF.

    Lennox Lewis said himself that Jones did try to fight him. Lewis told Jones he was unsure of his plans and that he may retire so he would have to pass. He said it on live HBO television.

    And Lewis would have killed Jones.

    I will say this jones did beat toney in his prime in 94 but he didnt beat hopkins in his prime you must hopkins didnt really hit his prime until 2001 when he beat tito 8 years later from the fight with jones just like lennox lewis said I didnt hit my prime until he was 34 and some over stupid qoute like i age like fine wine In both there primes they were pretty equal in my opinion

    I'm sure he did have some trouble making weight just like countless other fighters have but he was experienced at that wieght and experienced at cutting down. I don't buy the 30 pounds in 2 weeks bull**** and I don't believe that weight had anything to do with why Roy was able to blow him out so easily. When guys are weight drained, it takes it's toll as the fight goes on. Toney was blown out completly from the opening bell to the closing bell. Roy was and always has been the better fighter and that's what won him the fight.
