Mathew Fouts is absolutely wrong. My comment is the top one on that Myth video, we got into a long and ongoing arguement about it.
Roy Jones was a genius . He has something only Robinson and a young Ali had. Beyond quickness they were rangy. Their hands and feet had an uncommon coordination. They were dangerous even when you thought they were out of range. Floyd Mayweather has this when he was at '30.
I read that Robi exploited his reach advantage over most of his opponents and you can see him doing this by Jabbing constantly, I feel La Motta out jabbed Robi in their final fight for about 12 rounds though and that he would of backed Jones against the ropes with his jab in his 40`s prime. Was Roy`s reach in the top ten in any of the divisions he fought in All time wise?
I don't feel like Jake outjabbed him, it was close for a few rounds but Ray's ability to work off the jab was far superior. I'm guessing you never saw my article on it so https://imgur.com/gallery/ckrLP
Still amazing to watch Robinson double and triple that left hook in his prime. He did it like nobody else. They carried real force they were not your typical shoeshine slaps. One minute he is floating back and he stops on a dime and a barrage of hooks.
