    How? Jones started as a 154lb fighter! Leonard started at 147, so it would be like Roy retiring and coming back and fighting a SMW. Lennox was a heavyweight you know?


    Leonard retired at 147lbs so he came back and stepped up two weight classes. Jones was at 175lbs then went up two divisions.

    Roy wasnt going to retire at 154lbs was he? he is known as a lightheavyweight and was at that weight from his 20s.
    He only retired because of the detached retina. If Jones had got a detached retina at 154 yes he probably would have retired.

    Roys best win ( on paper atleast ) was against James Toney or Bernard Hopkins yet even though he wasnt particluary sensational in either of those fights I think at his best Jones is possibly the greatest fighter ever.
