Hereunder is what the flamboyant Jones had mumbled:



"Like a lot of fans, he loves to watch Pacquiao fight, but being a boxer by nature he appreciates more of what Mayweather does in the ring.

“Manny is a real good fighter, but he’s more busy than skillful,” he said. “He’s the type of fighter that overwhelms other fighters with his heart and his conditioning, but even though he beat Marco Antonio Barrera, I don’t think he’s better than Barrera. I’d still say Barrera’s better, pound for pound, than Manny. To me Manny’s the busiest fighter in the world, but he’s not a thinking fighter and he’s not one to show boxing technique, and that’s not what being pound-for-pound is about.

“Pound-for-pound is not a popularity contest. It’s about being able to do it all in the ring – offensively AND defensively – at the highest level, and right now Floyd is the best at executing ring generalship.”


So what do you think folks, is the aforecited assessment-- from the once pound 4 pound great-- has some weights?

No Roy it's not about being popular its about beating the best guys out there and thats why Pac is number 2/3?

What a stupid comment by RJJ, I suppose he thinks he still should be number 1.











All in all even though Pac KO'd Barrera and even if he does it again.....No he is not a better fighter then Barrera over all.....

EG would you rate Tarver over Jones??
