Jones owned him! You can have Jones anywhere you like on your list but the fact is Jones was an amazing talent in his prime!
Not for his opinion.

Perhaps Jones was "amazing" until he got figured out.
You don't think age caught up with him? As it does with everyone
Jones was just 34 when he fought Tarver the 1st time, not exactly ancient eh? And he's still fighting 8 years later at age 42. It could just be that he didn't train as hard as he used to, who knows.

Prior to the 2nd Tarver fight, because of unorthodox style, solid defense, and the fact that he stayed on offense most of time, it was very hard to get a clean flush shot in on RJJ. Jones Jr. achilles heel turned out to be his china chin, Tarver was just the first to expose it.
Just think how good Jones must have been then that no one knew he had no chin for over a decade spanning from 154 to heavy.

I've never said he wasn't good, just not the "god" all you RJJ fanboys make him out to be.
