    I only looked for 18 cause the other guy (The Roy Jones "Superfan") said he beat 18 world champs. So I started from his last fight and went down the list. The only 2 fighters you have more on your list are Vaca and Castro. Who gives a **** about Vaca?

    Agreed its not blindly good like Sugar Ray.

    How was Castro(70-3 when they fought and two years older than Jones) green when he was older than Jones and had more fights, so did Hopkins( four years older and a few more fights).....Jones wasnt in his prime when he beat those guys....regardless if you like it was not Jorge Vaca a former welterweight titlist its a fact not an opinion

    also check out yo list bro...richard hall and otis grant never held major titles unless you count the WBO for grant at middleweight so that makes 19

    dude you really must have something against Jones cause little to none of this post is facts...all your opinion and the funny thing is, everyone you say he avoided he beat better fighters than them and he also has a better resume than your aformentioned guys....do better :hi:

    and if you wanna be a ***** you can dissect his record the same way.....outside of Gavilan he never fought any great black fighters of the day...Burley, Marshall, Cocoa kid...im not gonna go their cause no fighter in history has fought every good fighter of their era

    Jorge Castro was green :lol: with a record of 70-3


    Jones was 17-0

    I think its time for you to make an exit ..

    Okay Castro wasnt green. So what. I didnt look at his record obviously
    Hopkins was not experienced in my opinion at that point, his age doesnt matter. But imo the Roy vs Hopkins fight was very very close. As for Richard Hall: at one point he won a paper belt: the WBA interim LH title against Bigeni. And Otis Grant held the WBO middleweight title at one point in his career. So that is a "mayor" belt because WBO, WBA, WBC and IBF are the 4 mayor belts

    dont get you panties in a bunch Grant held the WBO at 160 which i dont count as a real major title if you do that makes 19 chamions, hall held an interim title at 175 which in my eyes dont count either but since it does to you that makes 20

    you are making this so easy for me man just give it up, admit you are trying to discredit the mans accomplishements and move on

    Hopkins actually had 1 more pro fight than Jones when they met and didn't lose after Jones for another 10 yrs ..

    :deal dude just needs to let it go

    he sounds like a fool, in his eyes Jones has beaten 20 world champions if you count the WBO and interim either way Jones record shits on Eubank, McClellan, Collins, and Benn he is nt trashing them

    its hard to imagine Benn, Collins or Eubank beating Roy.

    Benn on one of his nutjob psycho days might have stopped him, but on those days he would stop anyone.
