    I was going through some old videos I had downloaded onto my pc, and came across this oldie but a goodie. Not sure if anyone has seen it before...RJJ was just :yikes to watch back in the day...The natural level of talent was just crazy....Now maybe he avoided some fighters and maybe he didn't, but one thing RJJ wasn't was boring in the ring...That's one thing FMJ can't claim .......Enjoy everyone.

    It is a shame he avoided so many fighters but it probably had to do with his Glass Jaw. His chin is terrible.

    :-( I hate it when people say RJJ had a glass jaw?! He took flush shots off John Ruiz who's a natural Heavy without getting KTFO? That's clearly not glass. Coming down in weight messed him up.

    LOL, terrible? He was knocked out on a running left hand with full extension by a decent puncher in Antonio Tarver, and knocked cold from a shot to the back/side of the head four months later by Glen Johnson. Years ago he was floored by Lou De Valle. Other than that was he ever off his feet? That's a terrible chin? He was only knocked down twice from shots to the chin, both considered lucky shots by thousands if not millions of fans.

    Badass video. It is easy to forget how damn good Jones was.

    He got knocked by Johnson and Tarver only becouse of the weight loss. And the Del Valle KD was becouse he was falling asleep from beating the **** out of Valle and got hit by a 1 in a million shot. :good

    Look its the same old cliche with Roy.........Time and his judgements were his biggest losses.....Its sad that his greatness is tarnished by his losses to guys who he would have destroyed years earlier..

    In all honesty i beleive Roy peaked at the Ruiz fight and like Tyson after Spinks declined but only faster than Tyson and like i said before, Tarver and Johnson were lucky to be there
