When the Dust Settles - Will Roy Jones be one of the Best of all time?

Fighters like RJJ who rely on reflexes nearly always decline sooner, and at a faster rate than a typical conventional boxer/puncher. In his peak though, he was unstoppable!!

 

YES HE WILL!

BEST GLASS JAWS OFF ALL TIME>:goodatsch

 

For example?

 

:think

 

Castro, McCallum, Wolfe, Vaca, Toney all good punchers off the top of my head

 

The dust has already settled.

 

Toney said the hardest anyone hit him was Sosa who was a big puncher, Toney was a puncher himself hence being known as 'Light Out Toney', Hall was an out and out power puncher with all his wins coming by KO, Castro was a puncher and future champ at MW, Tarver 1 - watching Tarver-Harding and Tarver-Jones 1 and tell me Jones doesn't show a chin and heart there, Ruiz isn't a massive HW puncher but he put Holyfield down with his right and had 40lbs on Jones, Hopkins wasn't a massive puncher but he was very aggressive and knocking allot of people out at that stage of his career. And it's not like allot of the other guys were powder puff types

 

Thread.

 

What type is this one?

Richard Frazier (Tricky Ricky) New York City's most talented boxing police officer. He was a cop by day and boxer by night. He won two New York Golden Gloves Championships. Frazier won both the 1985 165lb Novice Championship and five years later in 1990 Frazier won the 178lb Open Championship.

Hey...I remember you. You made that thread on boxden about sleeping with your cousin.

 

He was pretty damn good against Clinton Woods just a year earlier. His reflexes were fine for the Ruiz fight too...The weight loss accentuated his natural physical decline and the Tarver KO shot him.

 

Now your reaching ! Again you don't get fighter of the decade just by having HBO behind you if that were the case Gatti would have been fighter of the century ! Your reaching with this nonsesne !

 

He already is.

 

2 things:

1) he was not hit by a bomb against johnson.

2)whereever he ranked after the tarver victory is where he should rank now.

 

Fixed.
