Ronald Wright vs. Roy Jones Jr.

Re: Ronald Wright vs. Roy Jones Jr.
These days it woud be Wright as he is still at the top of his game. I would reckon a few years back Roy Jones as he was pretty much untouchable in his day. In saying that if they both met in their prime I would only reckon it would be a close fought fight and very interesting....we will never know I suppose!

In there prime Jones makes Wright look foolish. Wright obviously wins today

Re: Ronald Wright vs. Roy Jones Jr.
In there prime Jones makes Wright look foolish. Wright obviously wins today. I doubt that very seriously, it may be the other way around, speed has never bothered winky, roy does not like other boxers winky may have frustrated roy. i love roy but..... he was with out a doubt leary of fighting fighters who were not complimentary to his style, toney hopkins are two of the best he fought but both are counter punchers excellent ones but not the style you need to beat jones, you cant wait on him, roys reluctantce to fight chris byrd kind of reinforced this, you nullify speed with boxing ability hence a jab... winky has that and is left handed, he certainly has the ability to frustrate roy.

Re: Ronald Wright vs. Roy Jones Jr.
Roy at his best would have clearly beaten Taylor, Hopkins and Wright at their best. Toying with and then KO'n Taylor, doin what he did against Hopkins in 93, clearly winnin but havin some trouble, and probably bein stoppin Wright. Winky just thinks Taylor hits hard. And Taylor just thinks Winky was fast. Roy was twice as fast and twice as powerful as each.

Agree with almost everything except prime Roy isn't knocking Taylor out. He almost never engaged guys who could punch whom he could clearly outbox. He would have been content to beat him 12-0.

Sure I'll name ya three. Vinny Paz, Montell Griffin, and Virgil Hill. The latter being by a body shot, but it was the first time he had been stopped and he was a bigger, better fighter than Taylor.

::** I seriously hope you're kidding man. Vinny Pazienza ::** You are aware the man was coming back from a broken neck right? And that he was a former friggin lightweight right? And Montel Griffin? Exactly what is it about Taylor's chin that makes you think it's worse than any of those guys ??? ::**

Put the bong on the floor and step back away from it. When did Virgil Hill become Marvin Hagler? I'm not saying Jermaine is Hagler either, but what's nonsense is to say because a man KO'd Virgil Hill he can KO anybody. If that was the case he would have KO'd all his opponents at 160 and up. Roy liked to coast.

Re: Ronald Wright vs. Roy Jones Jr.
Smashcrusher, just fukoff son. Im tryin to have an intelligent conversation here with Skyler. Now speaking of Hagler, he couldnt even KO a blown up lightweight in Roberto Duran if you wanna go down that road. Never said Roy could or would KO anybody. However, Taylor he would. His speed and punching power combined would hurt Taylor badly and stop him, especially since Taylor loves to keep that left hand down. And yes Virgil Hill and Montell Griffin are better fighters than Taylor. Griffin had two close wins over James Freakin Toney! And even in old age went the distance with Tarver. KO'n him in his prime is an accomplishment, considering how good he was defensively.

I hear what you're saying Hulk but I disagree. Virgil Hill and Montell Griffin were not better fighters than Jermaine Taylor. And what it is that Taylor has shown you that he's even come close to being seriously hurt. I'm not saying Roy couldn't, I'm saying he wouldn't. Roy didn't like to get hit. He would have absolutely no reason to mix it up with Taylor. If he wouldn't have landed that body shot on Hill he would have won a UD. Those perfect shots have alot to do with luck. Roy never had an asassin type mentality, he had a boxer's mentality.

I'm no tuff guy, but I'll gurantee I'm tuffer than you. I remember the shat you said when I was facin time in Juvy Hall you lil bitch. Now go touch yourself to your posters of Jermaine Taylor and the Klitschkos and be gone.
And Skyler, I disagree. Both were better fighters than Taylor. Griffin was remarkable, with less than 20 fights he took on recently dethroned P4P king and bad ass James Toney and actually won! Didn't get a blatent horrible decision like Taylor did. And speakin of that Hopkins had him out on his feet, thats why I think he would be hurt by RJJ's power.

Maybe a young Jones beats Taylor . Today however I feel Taylor would fair better... All the assets Roy had that made him a champion are deteriorating rapidly via age , that sh#$ don’t ever come back . and those vicious Knockout’s Jones has absorbed recently has only furthered his demise. (He didnt just get knocked out, He got the F$## Knocked out. ) also You got to keep in mind Roy keeps his hands Low also, only now he isn’t as quick, and he gets caught.
I’ll say this about Taylor .He does need to ditch that amateurish left hand low thing, he puts himself in unnecessary risk doing that , and backing into those corner with Wright was stupid with the left hand low like that, . Lennox called that one right on the money !

Re: Ronald Wright vs. Roy Jones Jr.
Roy in his prime would be the first person to know out WInky IMO... he's style is perfect for being Winky... If Taylor could sometimes counter off WInky's jab then Roy would absolutely pick WInky apart. Also Roy had one of the best lead right hands ever... he could land it on anybody, and Winky wouldn't be quick/strong enough to stop... not to mention that Roy threw punches more angles than a circle has, and he had the best latteral movement I've ever seen.

But Jones also made people pay for their weaknesses and openings, and Jermains lack of balance and uncomfortableness inside of his jab and how easily he;'s backed to the ropes Roy may very well have stopped him since jermain would get hit a lot!

Roy likes to fight in the center of the ring, not on the ropes. The only time he would go to the ropes was when he himself voluntarily backed himself into the ropes to fight off of them. And Roy was so fast he seldom had to throw the jab. He's one of the few fighters to lead with whatever punch he wanted. The only reason Winky backed him up was because he fights flat footed and has a great jab that he uses all the time. Roy would dance on Taylor and pick Taylor apart in the middle of the ring for 12.

Re: Ronald Wright vs. Roy Jones Jr.
Roy would have too much experience for Taylor. The same way that Bernard did when Ford cheated him.
