Just because Bert Sugar is 100 years old doesn't make him an authority on boxing anymore than me. Bert Sugar lost credibilty when he made that insane statement much like you did here with it. Jones won titles at 160, 168, 175 and HW that alone would make him a top 100 ATG fool.:deal
By the same token....when Roy faught Virgil Hill, Virgill had issues making weight, it was his last fight at 175, yet all of you claim it was a great fight...come on Dude.....if you are going to pull that ****....then be fair ...Virgill Hill was done before the fight started it....and the same it can be said when he fought Glenn Kelly.... But the issue here is why not talk about the opposition that he could have fought but didn't...far more refined opposition that the ones he fought suring that peirod...I was clear on my analisys....

Wrong Chump....exactly my point ...it was the Garbage man that fought RJJ with the biggest heart, he was totally outclassed and still came coming...and the only fools here are you two Bozo's ...that can't see my point .....yes RJJ resume is such that a Garbage man gace him the best fight.....Montell's 2nd fight , he was done before he came into then ring...it remided me of Spinks v Tyson.....he was mentally beaten....the garbage man gave it his all....

Yes, Lineal champions are bums. I see your point now Orisha. We are the bozo's....not you. You realize your argument is being shredded. Much like the time you made a list of the top 10 LHW ever and didn't include Jones because he was never Lineal champion.....but had Ezzard Charles on it:deal
Ok you are right, I was looking at the 84 list,but regardless...88 is way down on the ****ing list.....it is not like he had it top 50, as you claim you ahve RJJ on your list...ok he made it in 2006 list at 88...big ****ing deal...and BTW..the argument of the garbage man it is clear.and if you two Bozos can see it ...then you are far more parcial and bias than I expected... You can post all the list you want...88...I ma not impressed...no wonder I could no find his name on it... But good one, thanks for finding the list.....which also proof my point of RJJ resume inflated and not holding water...

Only thing that proves is what Bert Sugar thinks. I can supply lists that have him in the top 50 all time. Of course then you would be of the opinion that the list was **** (cuz you don't agree with it) You have no argument. Get over it, move on. You had no IDEA that Gonzalez was the garbage man. You just called him a very good fighter. When his name was mentioned in the original post, you wrote "So" in red next to it. You said that Jones fighting the garbage man was an illustration of the bad competition Jones fought. MAKE UP YOUR MIND!!
I wrote "so" becuase..so ****ing what, so I gave him props and now you want to discredit what I said..yes ...Dude..I knew he was the garbage man, totally outclassed the cat yet he kept coming....
You're response is "So what" when Jones beats "a good fighter" by your own admission? So you admit that even when Jones beat someone you think is a good fighter (and your standards are horrible as is being pointed out constantly) your response is that you don't care. You don't like Jones and you are biased. This just proves it. BTW, Woods, the overrated one who loses when he steps up, has beaten that "good fighter" 2 times now. So how is he overrated again? You keep contradicting yourself.
that's why he's called orishaman..the **** doesn't rate jones, hopkins, or floyd three of the best of our generation.
