What is the greatest achievement of Roy Jones Jr's Career?

[Master]

Also, I know some people write off the McCallum win but I think that's rather a good win on RJJ's record.

McCallum was a fine technician (young, aspiring boxers should be studying tapes of this man) and boxers whose style has its foundation in technical soundness usually do well as old men. Technique is what let Toney do well more than 50 pounds above his natural weight class and it's what let Hopkins hand out a boxing lesson against a much younger man. It's what let McCallum go the distance with a prime(arguably) RJJ.

Roy always respected McCallum even in the early days when he was a contender and McCallum was a champion. Roy probably took it easy on the old fighter and could have stepped it up if he wanted.

I see. Still McCallum was a damn fine fighter. His first fight with Toney is one of my favorite fights.

Agreed I thought he won the first two fights against Toney. He was a brilliant fighter.
