If you wanna play this whole game...

Tysons record is a load of sh1t!

His biggest wins came against a way past it holmes and burbek, he got beat by douglas at his peak and lost to holyfield and lenox.

So lenox biggest win came against the guy who beat a past it holmes and burbeck?

Hahaha, it totally cracks me up.

Roy jones fought a load of fukin bums as well, his biggest wins against one of the sh1ttest heavyweight champs of all time ruiz, james toney and a close one with hopkins. WOW!!!! WHAT AN AMAZING RECORD HEY NOT!!!

Why is it that calzaghe gets crticism for his record, but jones also has equally as sh1t record, tyson has a PATHETIC record compared with both of them, yet tyson is an all time great?

Theres so much favouritism and biasness its ridiculous.

By the way, why didnt roy jones move upto heavyweight and fight lennox?

Womder if hed have been able to ko lennox with one hand behind his back like he did with that other class c bum that he fought in the ring.
First of all Ruiz would have DESTROYED Calzaghe. Second, Calzaghe wouldn't fight Jones in america unless he got a 50-50 cut. Why would he deserve that? He was scared to fight prime Roy because he knew he would have been demolished.

Also the close fight with Hopkins? Is that the one where Roy won by 4 or 5 rounds with a broken right hand? As for shitty competition what about Mike McCallum, Reggie Johnson, Virgill Hill, Eric Harding, Montell Griffin, Jorge Castro, Mequi Sosa, Clinton Woods, Otis Grant, Julio Gonzalez, Antonio Tarver(he beat him one sidedly in the first fight and two judges agree with me 117-111, and 116-112) And its not the fact that these guys are good, but besides two fights(Eric Harding, Montell Griffin 1) Roy has dominated his fights more than I have seen anybody else dominate the same level of competition.
I agree that Roy deservescriticism for fighting a lot of bums at LWH and that there are fights he should have made. I've ripped his resume on a number of occasions. He should have given Calzaghe the 50/50 split if Calzaghe was willing to travel. That fight would have been worth more to him than his big splits against inferior opponents...that being said....

He beat Hopkins, Malinga (Prime and went on to beat Robin Reid two fights before Calzaghe did), Tate, TONEY, Sosa, Griffin, Eric Harding, Gonzolez, Tarver, and Ruiz. When you factor in his WHOLE resume, including MW and SMW, it's pretty strong. He did waste a lot of time between the Griffin and Harding fights and he should have a fought Steve Collins at some point between 1995 and 1997. Again, I know it was partly a money issue, but it's a fight that he should have made happen.
