    Why didn't Roy take on more figthers like Hopkins,Toney & Tarver? (No disrespect to the other opposition on his resume...)

    Thoughts please brothers...

    Hopkins had his moments. Neither guy was prime but they weren't far from it.
    Hopkins could have beaten Jones.

    Roy was prime for this fight. i thought he coasted the whole way, just going through the motions, but it was impressive nonetheless.

    Jones would have knocked Leonard and Hearns out.

    Haye is a wannabe Jones... he's been copying his style all his career.

    i don't think Haye ever imitated Roy Jones... Haye's just an athletic puncher who looks like he never bothered getting the fundamentals down

    All in all, Hopkins has proved that he's the greater fighter of the two. But I don't think he could have beaten Roy on that night. Prime Roy always beats prime B-Hop (and almost everyone else for that matter...)
