So then there is Bernard which he won but it was no blow out and Tony was weight drained but no excuse he was owned. Then there is MaCallum who was best weight was 154 and he fought roy at 175 and at 40 went all 12 rounds with him and you may make funt of duran being at Lightweight at prime but you do not Bring up that MaCullam fought at a lower weight to and he lost a big fight so he was below the big guys in the 1980s guess what i am saying is that Hagler will win a UD and i will leave it at that i guess.

The DQ was BS Jones knocked down Griffin and landed a punch when Griffin was on the floor but Griffin was already gone so there was no need for the DQ and as for Griffin not being good name ?? he beat James Toney twice thats nothing to shabby.

Toney has always had weight problems his loss to Jones was because he was flat out owned by superb fighter plus alot of people forget Toney was P4P number 2 in the world at that time.

McCallum also won Lightheavyweight championship off Jeff Harding he was still very good at Lightheavyweight just compare Hagler's and Jones record on all the best fighters they beat plus what they achieved and Jones wins it.

Im not taking away anything im pointing out the facts Jones had better overall career than Hagler after Ruiz fight people were comparing Jones to SRR if Jones would have retired after Ruiz fight this debate would not even be happening.

Yea but he did not he ended up getting destroyed and if Hagler stop fighting before fighting SRL i think Hagler would be looked at differently as well.

And look they made another on man people must like to talk about this fight.

I see Roy Jones giving Hagler a tough night. Sometime's Marvelous would let guys get away with a bit to much (Duran). I don't know if (after being forced to make weight at a same day weighin the YOUNG 160 pound RJJ had the balls to take Marvin to task. Just the same... I would have like to see this fight. Besides BHOP, Roy is the only "modern" (12 round championship) fighter near MMH'S weight class that I give a shot with the chrome domed legend from Brockton Mass.

Interesting fight,bigger heart vs better skills,I hate to say this(because I loathe Jones as a person) Im leaning towards Jones winning on points

You guys should go watch more RJJ fights. The with all his speed in the world the guy never landed alot of punches in any round of his career....He could potentially hit hagler alot, yeah.. but that's not how RJJ fought.
