    It would have enhanced both resumes. But some overrate Jones at LHW having him in the top 5 there all time. I however have him right inside the top 10.

    Well your extreme view is not one thats going to hold much water in most cases. Not 2 titles BTW, it's just a nothing belt like the IBC.

    No contest ..Roy Jones by wide margin ..People are giving all this praise for what Hopkins did capturing a LT HEAVY weight title but Jones did that long before Hopkins was even considering going back to the weight he started at !

    Prime for prime they aren't even remotely comparable.

    I know he wasn't in that fight, but as people say Hopkins was green and got better after that fight, I believe Jones was young also... I do not consider Jones in his prime during this fight, which is why I made that statement.:good

    It's funny you have to resort to your childish games instead of posting subjective information that would validate your claims.:lol:

    You keep bringing up Tarver's and Johnson's KO wins over a SHOT Jones.

    You might as well bring up Tyson post Holyfield KO losses, or Leonard/Duran/Hearns losses after they were shot.

    Prime Jones (up to Ruiz) is vastly superior to Hopkins in terms of speed, skill, opponents, achievements, decisiveness of victories, KO percentage, total domination of opponents, number of ROUNDS lost, etc.

    To borrow from Quintin Tarentino:

    Roy and Bernard weren't in the same ballpark, weren't the same league, weren't even the same ****in' sport !

    This post illustrates the futility of debating with you.

    You get KO'd in your facts department and what do you come back with?




    'nuff said.
