Roy Jones Jr Vs Antonio Tarver III Round 5

yup thats his name..but jones was a absolute monster..alot of fighters didnt wanna fight roy..i mean he threw punches from all angles, unbelievable reflexes & handspeed, great timing/rhythm, counter-puncher, power in both hands, could threw every punch n the book but instead relied on his handspeed & reflexes which u cant blame cuz nobody could touch him, smart fighter, etc..he belongs up there wit tha greats.

Andre Dirrel is the Matrix. I feel the same way. Jones was the sickest fighter in the universe in his prime. Unreal speed and reflexes.

Roy's Atheticism was Insane..Esp his reflexes & handspeed..that cant be taught..he jus made guys miss...he would rush in hit you n somehow get out the way..roy is the greatest ATHLETE in boxing hands down..i didnt say the greatest BOXER but ATHLETE..his athleticism wont be seen in boxing for years...i do c a few up in n coming boxers that are close but never will be the athlete roy was..they are andre berto, andre ward, n sum otha good fighter called the matrix..4got his real name..S**t .

i agree

naw dude he did lose alot of speed..he is still very fast..but yrs ago i had 2 rewind tapes jus 2 c wat punches he threw..he isnt that fast anymore..has absolutely no legs thats y he jus laid on the ropes..not aggressive like he use 2 be..reflexes left him..he is only 50% of wat he use 2 be..he was never a boxer..he was a ATHLETE..he depended on sheer athleticism..which cannot be taught..

lol..aint no use n tellin him FACTS..he jus brushes em off & continues kissin calzaghe's dick more n more..tellin him somethin is like feedin a dead horse..itz pointless..everybody knows roy is a has-been..

LMAO mantis i thought u were just giving some honest criticism at first, but i looked back a few pages and ur going on and on and on and no disrespect, im not a jones fan or calz fan im a fan of BOXING,and your hugging joes nuts a little to hard XD

And he didnt lose speed he is still lightning fast..But whats speed when u dont have the confidence and aggresivness to pull the trigger?? or the reflexes to dodge counter punches???

Thats exactly what i mean to tell you!!! ROY JONES ISN'T and never will be the same fighter he was before going up to Heavyweight and dropping back down!! power?? whens the last time you seen Roy knock somebody out?? He isn't fundamentally or as defensively sound as Hopkins, he relied on his reflexes for most of his career and they are GONE..Do u not understand that????

u mean to tell roy jones isnt the same fighter bullshit!he may have lost a little speed but his power is still there.thats something you dont really lose.

SMH mantis is it really that difficult to see that Jones is WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY past it?? did you downgrade sugar ray leanord when he lost to Norris?? Or Ali when he lost when he was way past it? Calz is still near his peak, only thing gone is his power which he makes u for with work rate..Roy lost the attriutes that made him Roy Jones,,His reflexes and aggressivness...Get me now

The reason you think that hes been fighting slow fighters is because hes the fastest fighter ever this side of junior middle.

Even Jones biggest critics would agree that he had insane speed in hes prime.

joe took it easy on rj the last 3 rounds he could have hurt him if he wanted to.

I know more than you apparently.

no dont do drugs I like to use my mind.just look at the way jones fights terrible just winds clock down and pot shots slow fighters.most his fights were real boring he S**ks glass jaw.only good fight I had seen him in was with Calzaghi because he was making rj fight!
