    I'm glad the poll is as clear for Roy as it is...

    Nice to see Dipper back to his Roy lovin' best, too... :D

    at this point in his career, rjj has a china chin that's undeniable.

    Best to you You too, Dipper/Mac or whatever.

    Hope you pass English on your next try.

    Hope you can eventually read well enough to figure out Cuchulain
    (Hint: It's not Jewish and it's not from your country)

    Hope all your other 'issues' get resolved (You know the ones I mean).

    Keep takin' your meds and all will be fine.

    See you on another thread sometime.


    Regards.

    They are no equivalent. You already know this. Beating a near prime Hopkins is not better than beating a shell of Jones. But again, if this is the best you can do in your argument, I understand your anger.

    Pointless to do so.

    Jones probably wont get knocked out by Tito, but if he does he should definitely retire.

    Your post should have ended at "whatever". Hard for you to say you don't hate Jones when you say things like. Kinda proves the opposite.

    If thats what helps you sleep at night.

    Accept, not except. They don't mean the same thing.

    Can you except the fact that you are in the minority?

    Not better than Hopkins?, what more proof do you need than their fight?
    Yes, Hopkins was Green but so was Roy so it was more than fair and was also for the title which neither fighter had. So all the situations at the time clearly prove that it was fair in every way, not to forget that Roy basically had 1 hand in that fight but you don't have to believe that if you don't want to, the result is still crystal clear.

    Just to play devil's advocate, cause I CLEARLY rate Jones above Hopkins, but Saddler beat Pep 3 times out of 4 and you'll see most rate Pep above Saddler. So having Hopkins above Jones despite the loss, wouldn't be the FIRST time. But I agree, the fight between Jones and Hopkins was clear enough that it would be pretty much the same (perhaps a LITTLE closer) at any stage in their career (barring now, perhaps). And if Jones REALLY did have an injured hand, then even moreso...

    I doubt Jones will lie about the injured hand, why would he do so?, to make Hopkins look worse?, I doubt he'll need that kind of attention with all the stuff he has accomplished anyway. Jones' speed gives Hopkins trouble ANYTIME, you can put the current version of Hopkins in there with the same version of Jones at his best at light heavyweight and Hopkins would still lose simply because of Jones speed/movement.
