what rules did roy jones break

Pretty much every rule in the book as far as boxing fundamentals go. If you slowed him down to super slo mo and broke it down he should have never gotten away with what he did. Andre is not talking about the rules of the sport but the boxing 101 handbook. Roy's incredible gifts allowed him to throw the HOW TO book into the trash can.

this boxing myth that if you fight with your hands low you are breaking the boxing rules is ridiculous and really counterproductive. roy was not the first guy to fight with his hands low or throw a lead right hand or a lead left hook. a lot of the stuff roy does is straight out of the old school no matter how much he gets painted, for reasons still unknown to me, as otherwise. go back and look at all the old jimmy mclarnin or willie pep fights. thats as textbook as it gets.

I think Roy was past it by the Harmon fight. Compare that version of him to the one that fought McCallum and you can see he's noticeably slower.

You mean Target fight?

I don't think Roy was any slower in the Harmn fight, he just wasn't fighting an ancient fighter. McAllum should've never been at 175 in the first place, and when Roy fought him he was a decade past his prime. This point further illustrates my point that Roy fought pathetic opposition during his prime, n that was what allowed him to seem so "great" for so long.

Roy could have fought better opposition but having B Hop and Toney on his record is better than having Benn, Eubank and G Man on it.
