    Default Great Roy Jones Jr./Anderson Silva article

    Y! SPORTS

    Silva (mma's equivalent to Roy Jones) was recently KO'd in a shocker of an upset.

    Incidentally, before he was KO'd Silva was discussing a boxing match against one Roy Jones.

    I feared Silva could beat Roy even in a boxing match or make it humiliatingly close due to Roy being totally shot and so merciful in recent years as to let anyone go the distance with him.

    IF they do indeed box maybe Roy will be inspired by the recent KO loss of Silva and put some mustard on his shots.

    There's a pretty fundamental difference in the two defeats though, among other things. Roy Jones respected Antonio Tarvers ability, and was actually throwing punches himself until he was KO'd. All the Silva fight really showed was that any capable fighter your size can knock you out if you offer your chin like that repeatedly. It was a lot different than Jones showboating while still in balance and position to counter, Anderson was just being a flat out clown. Now of course he's gotten away with it before in spots, but that same thing could have happened then.

    wasn't it a modified jab type punch? Kimbo, the king of the streets also was knocked senseless by a jab... crazy.

    Don't smiley face palm me.

    ROY WON'T THROW FUCKIN PUNCHES!

    Especially when he fears someone is faster than him and due to multiple KO losses, his chin is pretty poor these days.

    He's 44, shot, and extremely gun shy.

    I'd pick him to beat Silva in a boxing match what with Anderson's whopping 1-1 pro boxing record from 10 years ago, but still I'd be weary as you cannot depend on Roy these days. He proved that against the powder punching unknown Polish kid.

    The way your speaking im going to assume that you never seen mma guys in the boxing ring. Guys that are monsters with their hands in the ufc like silva and vitor, look like little kids with no power or skill in the ring. Its embarrassing, they can barely get through guys that are fighting for sandwiches. Roy would destroy him, and any guy that beat roy out of his prime would destroy him. Andersons punches would offer no power, or speed, or skill, boxing is a whole nother level of mastery, for christ, even jeff lacy would kick his ass.

    THis is the thing that really annoys the shit outa me about the whole Boxing VS MMA thing. It was around two years ago when there were talks of Nick Diaz going up against Jeff Lacy in a boxing match.. The fight almost got made until Nick Diaz pulled out like a pansy.

    It's unbelievable how so many so called boxing fans predicted that Diaz would win.. That's just stupid..

    James toney against randy couture in the boxing ring would be opposite of what hapoened in the cage.

    Roy jones owns any mma fighter in the boxing ring. Its that simple.

    i honestly believe a boxer has more of a chance in the cage than an mma fighter has in the ring

    No you wouldn't. You're just back peddling. And that Polish kid destroys Silva or any MMA fighter that gets in a boxing ring

    Sure I would tough guy. Hell, I was picking Roy to beat Prince Badi Ajamu when over half the forum was predicting Roy would get stopped early.

    Roy has declined dramatically since even then tho, and it would concern me him boxing Anderson Silva as I think he would try to carry Silva and not throw many punches while Silva would most likely try to KO him.
