Floyd Sr. Say's RJJ was never exceptional and that oscar really lost to PBF...

[JT Rock]

Some people are just jealous of how good people are love him or hate him Roy Jones Jr was exceptional and very talented and if anybody says different then they don't know about boxing imo or there just plain jealous.

You can't tell me with a straight face that Roy Jones is a Fundamentally sound fighter with exceptional BOXING skill.

Roy was EXTREMELY athletic, fast and strong, thats how he won fights he was always the superior human being in that ring...

He was very unorthdox fighter but he still had some very good skills he had goob jab when he used and amongst other things yes he didn't do what normal fighters do but that doesn't take away what a great fighter he was and Floyd Sr is talking out his a**.

He was talking about fundamental skill.... This Mysery jab Roy used once in a Blue Moon is hardly a measureing stick for fundamental skill, Roy was fast enough not to need a jab to set up his power punches and thats a well known fact..

Roy is proving how shoddy his fundamentals are at the moment, he got sparked by Johnson, looked like less than an amatuer against Tarver in the 3rd bout and he beat some guy in boise that no one ever heard of

No superior reflexes = less than ordinary for Jones

Take a fundamentally sound boxer with deteriorating reflexes and he can still be competitve since he has a great foundation of skill... Roy's reflexes slipped a tiny bit and it cost him his career as we know it

Roy was great but it wasnt because he was a skilled technictian... Thats the part I agree with Floyd sr

Your talking about a fight with Johnson when he was way past it in his prime he knew how to deal with pressure fighters check out my thread i done yesterday and again read my other comment what i said after and your get the picture of what im trying to say you don't have to be skilled technictian or ect to be exceptional which Roy Jones was hell Whitaker had good skills but he wasn't exactly like every other boxer infact i've never seen a boxer like Whitaker in my life does that make him any less exceptional ?? no it doesn't and the same goes for Roy Jones.

I saw your thread and you just validated my points exactly once Roy slipped an inch, it was over!!!!!! Hopkins, Wright, Toney, Delahoya, MAB would not get embarrased like Roy has

roy's demise was due to his own success. he got used to being able to stand and hit fighters and not expect the punch to come back..and he got caught by the perfect punch by tarver and became gunshy after that...roy's reflexes are not prime but they're still good enough to beat anybody out there as long as he's not afraid to let his hands go...

Sorry JT but this makes me laugh Tyson in his early 20s when he faced Ruddock was considered way past it even though i didn't see much difference but when Jones moved all the way down in weight and it was so obvisious that he wasn't same fighter he is only considered *slighty past it* or just *slipped an inch* in his prime he would of embarrassed both Johnson and Tarver and you know it and actually your saying Jones wasn't well rounded or didn't have good technical skills like Mayweather well that proves my point how good he is he didn't have what most boxers have like good technical skills or ect yet he dominated Toney and Hopkins and is considered the best ever at 168 and 175 and would beat anyone at those weights in many peoples eyes.

DING DING DING!!!! YOU THINK that was point if he had good fundamentals then he would still be a great fighter today like the above referenced ones..

[ICB]

What im saying is JT is that you said yourself he hasn't got the technical skills of Mayweather or other things normal boxers have yet look how good he is without these things thats im saying he is so gifted that he is too good for his own good and doesn't need these things that most boxers have thats what i call raw talent like Michael Johnson who has one of the weirdest running styles ever yet he still used to be miles ahead of his competition and thats exactly the same with Roy.

you know i compared mike to roy in the way they both took their respective sports and where bounds ahead of it...also like bob beamon who took the long record from 27 feet to 29 feet..bypassing 28 feet altogether...mike took the 200m record from 19.72 to 19.32...and roy was this far ahead of the boxing game and to say that he wasn't exceptional is ridiculous...

[artest2000]

the reason y he did not use the jab alot was because he was so far ahead of every one.

Totally agree.

While I have always been a RJJ fan...I personally feel that Floyd is the more dynamic of the two as far as game goes.

Sure Jones has more power & is also the more atheletic of the two...but Floyd is the more sound boxer.

Also...Floyd's video was much more impressive that Roy's Pot Shot Pose Down.

roy jones as far as technical boxing goes was probably one of the worst...but that by definition is why he's "exceptional"... because he dominated for so long this makes him exceptional to all the fundamentals of boxing in every aspect...

#2942 Yep Roy never had to be a skilled technictian. He had everything else to make him great

[JT Rock]

roy jones and see the things he did in the ring he brought the matrix in to the ring never have i ever saw some one do that like roy.

I dont know dude, both clips look equally impressive in their own right

The only thing i agree with is that oscar would have done better with floyd sr in his corner.....but at this point i don't think that matters if the re-match happens reguardless of the trainer i think oscar looses....

[TheBESTP4P]
