Uhh only problem with that comparsion is hall is Lightheavyweight and as Holmes would say Hall can't carry Holmes jockstrap Holmes is 5 times better than Hall and Holmes would stick that piston left jab is Jones face all night i don't care if Jones would avoid it sometimes Holmes would just step back to not get countered then pick his shots and land with it come on your comparing Hall a Lightheavyweight who isn't that good to all time great hw like Holmes come on thats silly and you know it.

i am not saying homles is not better then hall. what i am saying is if spinks can beat larry then jones would box his head off.

[artest2000]

homles would have a size advantage and there is all ways the chance of a KO. but if it went to the points roy jones

is that being silly

Past his prime against Spinks .... and he still won both fights to 90 percent of public Holmes was the one being aggressor vs Spinks and won both fights Spinks didn't outbox Holmes at all and i doubt you have ever seen those fights to be honest as i said again if your talking about Holmes past his prime how about Tarver koing Jones and Johnson koing Jones if they can do that Holmes would right ??

Yes it is because i doubt you have ever seen a Holmes fight and you have never watched him in his prime i doubt tell me truthfully how many Holmes fights have you seen ??

uhh holmes would murder jones! jones had exceptional skill but is way to small to hang with a big HW like larry

jones had a good chin before he moved back down. well the first fight agasint tarver proves that his chin started to become bad

[ICB]

And these clips show what exactly ?? Holmes dominated Shavers in both fights won every round in both fights except for the 7th round in there rematch and Shavers caught Holmes with one of the hardest punches ever in hw history got up and dominated the fight and again i see you haven't watched Holmes fights just clips so you base judging fights on clips firstly Witherspoon is very skilled fighter do you know how good he was when he was younger ?? he was 6 foot 3 Holmes had some problems but still won Holmes battered Cooney to a pulp on to the next fight Norton vs Holmes one of the finest hw fights ever 15th round was one of greatest rounds in hw history Norton also gave Ali 3 tough fights and imo Norton should of won 2 out of 3 fights Norton is nothing like Jones he had crab style defense and Holmes still won by 2 rounds Holmes dominated Cobb 15 rounds to 0 Holmes had trouble with Weaver but still koed his a** and onto Ruiz vs Jones ?? i see Jones tagged with right hand that shook him i don't see what these clips are proving and proves my point you have never seen Holmes fight just clips and thats bad judging fights on clips.

[artest2000]

watch the clips again and see that homles was not that fast with his foot speed he held his hands low and jones speed would be hell for him.
plus the angles jones could open up with were awesome

[ICB]

watch the clips again and see that homles was not that fast with his foot speed he held his hands low and jones speed would be hell for him.

Uhh i have 30 + Holmes fights i don't need to watch the clips i've seen the fights enough you haven't seen the fights and base it on clips actually watch the fights watch how Holmes schooled Shavers twice and skill he shows doing it and Jones held his hands down and got shook by the slow Ruiz and proves what exactly ??

I dont have an opinion on the subject...

But whatever prat wrote on the linked forum on the orinal post ..

" Ruiz isnt even top ten" .. Fwocking idiot.. No hes not top ten .. Because he hasnt fought a large handful of world class opposition and he hasnt beaten a fair few of them has he?

Just because he as a person is a twat.. gets given numerous undeserved title shots and has a boring style doesnt mean that he isnt a great fighter!
