  • These were flat out the days that roy was trully unstoppable like his song said... lol... one of the fastest hands ever, punching power in both hands, super quick and light on his feet, reflexes of a cat, and smart fighter... today he has no energy and spends all his time on the ropes :-( Roy used to go 12 rds without getting tired (thats how well conditioned he was)... all the talents he relied on are the first things to go in a fighter which is why he looks bad now. No where near the sameguy

  • Emassacre1 is right. No one was ever close to the prime RJJ. Thornton was a good fighter but looked like an amateur against Roy. Sad to see Roy loose against the completely boring Calzaghe. He was no way near his prime in that match and will never be.

  • oh please plenty of fighters could have beaten a prime rjj. he generally fought weak opposition, and did as little fighting as possible, just jabbed and ran most of the time. a good boxer puncher like tommy hearns could have definitely knocked him out cold.

  • @johnosandra.... good one... henry armstrong was the man... i'm very familiar with him and agree that he would've been a problem for Roy, even Roy in his prime.

  • the only fighter i could ever think would have a chance against a prime jones is henry armstrong

    i watched him bang hard with a bloke for 15 rounds today and was as quick in the 15th and throwing just as many punchs as he did in the 1st

    iron chin,pop in his punchs and the eye of the tiger

    the only man i think with a chance against a prime jones

  • "i believe he would have beat them all "someone should've told roy that because that's why he was nicknamed "reluctant roy" he gave the impression that he just did not want to fight those fighters.

  • RIP Tony aka.. .punching postman! Glad I had a chance to know a wonderful person and attend the funeral services!

  • Rip Tony Thornton

  • "A combination ballet dancer an bouncer" LOLOLOL ohhhh larry lol... how can ppl say they dont like larry merchant LOL

  • Damn! 8:54 he just runs high right overhand into his face. BOOOM!

  • It's really cool how Jones can change to Southpaw like that and still dominate. Def one of the most entertaining boxers of all time.
