Watching a clip of roy jones fight hopkins I heard merchant say this as he was unipressed with roy jones he said this also when roy fought mcallum. Its just amazing how people blow hot and cold now hes a legend. boxing is so fickle your only as good as you last appearance, my answer yes jones was as good as everyone says and yes he wasnt as good as everyone says. Take in point if foreman kos ali who wast past his best when they fought he might go down as the most dominat greatest ever, was he the greatest of course not, if holyfield walks away after tyson he is a even more legendary, lennox beats an even older version of mike and its hi signature win which doesnt amount to much, all great fighters but boxing like i said is just fickle
