    Default Roy Jones Jr.'s best fights?

    Like the title, what are Jones best fights? I haven't seen nearly as much of him as I should as he was a shadow of what he once was when I became a boxing fan, so I'm trying to learn more about him.

    I'd assume the Hopkins, Toney, Ruiz, Griffin fights have to be among his best, but what are you personal favorites?

    The ones that made me sit up and shut up....

    KO's of Malinga and Hill....two of the best body shot finishes by a prize fighter.....W over Castro,Tate,Gonzalez,Griffin 2,Toney...still think he got in Toneys head and had him half beat prior to opening bell,in hindsight his blitz of Thorton was nice.I thought Thorton beat Eubanks prior.

    Ones I didnt like at all....Pazienza heavily hyped farce,W.10 over a carried Chirino,McCallum,Trinidad,Lucas

    Montell Griffin I presented some problems to Roy because of Griffin;s fast hands.


    Montell II was a shock. That's the best RJJ version IMO.

    All the fights mentioned above...plus the David Telesco fight. Love watching roy back into to corner and fight out.

    Also check out the Bryant Brannon fight, that's the one where he talked about facing all of the europeans before the fight..Benn Collins Eubank etc...

    And I agree the best version of RJJwas the one that showed up for the Griffith rematch, he was physically 100%..he looked like a chiseled statue...
