^Agreed. I think people make excuses for those wins. I hear "well it wasn't PRIME Hopkins" and "well Toney had to lose a lot of weight before hand". Hopkins was 5 years in the game, just like Roy, and was a nasty fighter already and was a top middleweight. And James Toney, he ALWAYS had to lose a lot of weight before fights, and NOBODY ever obliterated James Toney like Jones did. Jones pitched a shutout in my books.
People also don't give him enough credit for winning a HW title. Even if Ruiz was no Lennox Lewis, he was still a highly capable (albiet boring) HW.
Roy Jones was one of a kind.
