Roy Jones Jnr V Gerald McClellan Circa 1994

[Majesty]

you guys must have forgot how good of a boxer Gerald was.. Gerald is a 1 punch concussive hitter guys like Jackson and McClellan only come around once a generation.

Its a classic case of Roy Never had fought in his career a guy like McClellan even to this day. Roy was a a special guy that no one has ever seen when he was operating in his prime. Total Pikem for me

it was a pickem fight till about the 4th round.

Roy Jones was never down nor hurt in a fight until he fought at Light Heavyweight.

I think him and Gerald would have went to war but eventually Roy would have got him late in the fight after making him pay for his wide punches.

And Gerald's only fight at Super Middleweight was Nigel Benn I think and thats where the tragedy happened.

I don't think he could have taken Roy Jones's punishment at 168, Roy just hit too hard and was too fast and too skilled. Gerald would have had him goin early but he wouldn't have stopped him and Roy would have taken over and stopped him late.

Gerald should have stayed a Middleweight. I would have loved to see him fight Hopkins.

I argue that Roy had a pretty good chin until he came back down to 175, and that Tarver is a pretty heavy handed guy who hit him perfectly. There is no excuse for what Glen Johnson did to him because up until that point Roy was blocking almost everything Glen was throwing, at least to his head.

Watch that fight again...Roy was out on his feet and only the ropesand him leaning on johnson, kept him up in round 4 or five think. He recovered and threw a few hooks. Point is he was already getting hit too much before the knockout.

The entire time I kept saying "he's going to get knocked out again", He just didn't look right at all. I was actually in Memphis, Tn for that fight. Once I heard that his home was wrecked in the hurricane, then he drove from florida to tennessee for the fight, I knew he wasnt going to look good.

I watched that fight plenty of times, he was badly stunned once before the KO, but Johnson was landing 90% of his punches on Roy's gloves.
