Lebedev's KO of Roy is KO of the Year

[JonesJrMayweather]

Who other than the the european fighters (benn, collins, eubank, JC, DM) could jones have faced that he wouldn't have received criticism for during his reign?

thats a pretty good list you've got there. i see you've come around to my side of the argument. haha.

take nothing away from roy... he was a phenomenon. but lets be realistic about the level of competition that he looked so great against. your list is a good example of people he could have chosen to fight if he had wanted to push himself harder.

I think those fighters are only used as an excuse to diminish RJJ, because no one would've honestly picked any of them to stand a chance against Roy. In fact if he fought them there would just be a bunch of excuses. I mean who on their records is so good that it made them such viable opponents since you basically shitted on Roy's resume.

Who did collins/Benn?/eubank?/JC? face that suggests Rjj beating either of them would solidify a higher legacy especially considering that some of the common opponents who were "good" Roy obliterated them?
