Roy Jones Jr. at heavyweight WTF!!

[Taeth]

First how did he get so big. Second how come his jab was so much faster than it had been at LHW, and three why does he get all the talent. I mean he looked as quick as Mayweather at 199 pounds. I don't see how anyone can't see him being the best fighter ever. He was so fast, so strong, and yes skilled that I can't see how anyone would beat him p4p.

I take it you haven't seen the documentary 'The Sweet Science' about how it all lead up to the fight with Ruiz.

Check your PM's.

well according to RJJ he never hit the weights ever througout his career until he went up to HW to fight john ruiz thats how he put on so much size etc. i believe it cuz i stopped touching the weights like a year and 1/2 ago and i completely leaned out im hella LEEEEEEEEEEEEEAN son, b4 i was like more so mass from weight lifting but once u cut weights out your body completely leans out. so if u do the reverse like he did it will have a profound effect on your size like his

But how did he maintain his stamina, speed, etc.? He is my favourite fighter ever, but there are things that don't add up, like the pimples on his back.

[Taeth]

Anyways people always had problems with RJJ because he could fight unconventionally and still beat all the best guys. That is the reason they say he had no technique when in fact he threw alot of his punches very well, and with his whole body behind them while other people couldn't do anything even close to him.

RJJ is just well discplined athlete with remarkable natural/hard worked talent. he even pulled the first tarver win by the same means while most other boxers would either be gasssed out, he dug deep for the win.

bro ive seen RJJ fight live in person 4 times and when you see him put combos together live in person your like WTF

dude just by the sound he makes while throwing punches you actually hear the air like LOUD as he lands combos with such speed and precision.

Incredible feat by an incredible boxer. Peopel tend to downplay it because it was against John Ruiz, who no one likes. But what no one will admit is that Ruiz is a good fighter and was certainly no pushover, and Roy Jones made it look easy.

Roy was fast that night against Ruiz but he looked faster because Ruiz is slow i think Roy should have stayed at heavy for a few defences it was a massive mistake coming back down to lightheavy it took to much out of his body and he was never the same again

Roy Jones vs Byrd would of been good tactical fight but i think Jones would of been to small against most hws like Lewis ect but yea your right he could of fought Byrd Holyfield and Tua wouldn't of been bad to make defenses against them guys.

If he did'nt get caught he could beat Wlad at the time with his speed he could have tired Wlad out and beat him UD12

Not so sure about that im not big fan of Wlad but 6 ' 6 ½ who is around 240 vs a Natural Middleweight who is 5 foot 11 and is over 40 pounds lighter i don't think he could Wlad is way too big for him and Jones would feel power of the big man and remember Jones was 193 pounds vs Ruiz.
