    Bottom line is he was taking a legal, over the counter supplement, and so was his opponent.

    Now let's look at VITLAYS steroid shame shall we...that one is far more conclusive, he tested positive and got banned from the Olympics. I suspect the only reason the same thing didn't happen with his brother was because they got their timings right, but he's definately just as much a juicer as VITLAY is.

    Does anyone think that Chris Byrd has a glass jaw?

    Here is a guy who faced.

    Tua
    Wlad Klitschko 2x
    Vitaly Klitschko
    Ike Ibeabuchi

    He didn't get starched in 1 round either in fact he went the distance with Wlad, beat Vitaly and beat Tua.

    Then all of a sudden he comes down to LHW and he's getting knocked around the ring like a rag doll by Shaun George a man not known for his punching power. It became clear as day that his punch resistance had deteriorated as a result of the weight loss coupled with his age.

    When Roy Jones came down from Heavyweight in 2003 he lost a part of him. He was never the same fighter. It became clear that his punch resistance was diminished. I'm not part of the group that suggests that Tarver's left hand in round 2 of fight 2 would have KO'd anybody because it wouldn't have. In fact I don't think it would have Ko'd a pre Ruiz Jones.

    For those suggesting that Jones had a glass chin throughout his entire career- you are clearly mistaken and agenda driven.

    For those that suggest that Jones did not have glass chin after Tarver II when his punch resistance was clearly gone then you are holding to a fighter that no longer exists.
