Whatever, I am not arrogant enough to think I know everything. I do not think this is a amateur fight. I think there is a difference between amateur and pro. I am not feuding with anyone. I got on here to talk about boxing not feud with anyone. I thought I could voice opinions but apparently only if they agree with Boss Hog
voice your oppinions for sure. but you gotta know when to stop diggin. fine disagree with someone. but when the majority of the forum (who believe it or not aren't RJ sycophants) come up with very good arguements , good enough to make your arguement leakier than a siv you gotta know when to give it up and move on. i'm all for extreme oppinions got a lot of em myself, but you gotta be big enough to listen and take on bored other peoples arguments and be prepared to have your mind changed. Heck the people on here have changed my thinking on alot of fighters i thought were good or shit.
the argument is Jones is that good, Tarvers pro years and fight numbers are alot lower but he probably IS the best light heavy out there at the moment.
Tarver may be the best out there at the moment but do you not agree he is no where close to being in Jones league. That was my point another useless Roy Jones fight to me. It beefs his record up and gives Tarver some spending money but I do not see it as a very competitive fight.
I am not knocking Roy Jones I am only telling how I see the fight, If you disagree and think Tarver has a good chance then fine. I think it's just another Roy Jones win.
Yeah tarvers the best out there but not in his league thats obvious. but hardly roy's fault. The question we're all asking you is, who's he meant to fight? Hopkins isn't an answer because of the weight divide.
Answer the question if jones is fighting bums who from 175 upwards should he be fighting?
Dude peep this.....I aint beefing with you (you should see the barneys me and HF had when he was a rookie) My point was that......you dont know as much about certain aspects of boxing as some others on the forum and as a result your arguments were pretty silly.....Im all about coolness baby ask anyone, I just get the hump with people who dont listen to reason (which you werent)
Theres no drama, everyones got an opinion and if you dont like RJ thats cool my point is you cant rightly critisise a fighter for not fighting the best when he IS fighting the best opposition available to him in many cases he is just head and shoulder above them in terms of ability....that isnt his fault surely ???
Can we kiss and make up now ;D
As Ms. Garret would say "GIRLS, GIRLS, GIIIIIRLS"
Everyone just settle down, I believe (correct me if I'm wrong) that mannish thinks RJJ's opponents are not the best ....well I should rephrase that, "not the best competition that Roy COULD face" and I think I can include all of the RJJ supporters when I say that OUR arguement is ...
"The opponents RJJ has faced have been considered the best in Roy's respective weight class at the time and it's only RJJ's superior boxing skill that makes them look like he's fighting amatures. RJJ could (have) fight a lot of guys that are considered to be the BEST in the world but he would more than likely make them look the same way. For example, Dariuz, he's always blabbed about fighting RJJ and much like Hopkins, Dariuz wants it on his terms (maybe because it'll take enough off of RJJ's game to let him upset the great Roy) and RJJ will not fight anywhere but the US on account of the 1988 Olympic disaster. Roy is by far the guy who makes the fights with Hopkins and Ruiz worth watching, who wants to watch Hopkins fight some little punk who isn't worth his time, if anyone needs to step up it's the guys who want to fight Roy like Toney, Byrd, Hopkins....Tarver stepped up and he got his fight why don't they do the same, RJJ is boxing royalty right now he doesn't need a belt to be consdered a champion. Roy is a very smart guy right now he's looking after his future and seeing how he probably won't want a job after he retires from boxing he wants more money and you know what he's earned it he's the best boxer of this era hands down and yes I believe everything should be handed to him the way it was handed to Tyson...that's the way boxing is, if you're THE DOMINANT Champ you're king of the hill til someone throws your @ss off!"
I like Roy Jones never said I didn't. I only said I wish he would fight Hopkins, now I'll change to say wish he COULD fight Hopkins.
OK understood, I just thought that you didn't think RJJ's competition was the best in the world and you wish he would have some "challenging" fights when to me "challenging" for RJJ is being able to go to the scorecards
Roy within 5.
He WILL do the chicken move shortly after knock down #1 luring a groggy Tarver into the kayo
:knock_out:
If he is really mad, & is gonna release "RJ" his evil alter ego, it might even be funnier than the "chicken move."
We'll see tomorrow. ;D
:lol: we'll see the chicken dance followed by tarver's rendition of the judah shuffle!!!:lol:
does antonio or jones live in orlando fl? if the one that lives in fl have a fan address or something. please p.m. me or e-mail me at virgobabi03@msn.com if you kno!
The judges robbed me and tarver of glory!Quote:

Well you drop that kind of weight in that period of time and see if you can still stay at the same level. I am shocked Tarver was not KO'd (didn't watch the fight but still none the less I am shocked) I give him props for going the distance but maybe RJJ had a little more trouble making weight than we thought...I think he might should make his new home Cruiser or stay at Heavy either way he's got one fight left ...TYSON!
Big upps to Tarver for his effort ;)
Bigger to RJJ who's worst night was enough to pull it out.
