Roy Jones Jr is the most skillful boxer who've ever lived in his prime. To me, he is the greatest of the great fighters. Not only he had power in both hands, he also had mastered skill and strategy as well. History in its sobriete will agree with that someday.

Benitez, Ray Robinson, Carlos Monzon, Nigel Benn, and the Hawk Julian Jackson would have sent Roy out on stretcher! At Roy's prime (and fighting top fighters in their prime) he was completely boring and ordinary in his biggest (and only) 2 wins, B. Hopkins I and J. Toney. At light-heavyweight, it would have been even worse for a prime Roy vs. a prime E. Holyfield, Matthew Saad Muhammad, Bob Foster, Michael Spinks, Ezzard Charles, and Archie Moore of 130 K.O.'s fame - please go and study the unbelievable record of "The Mongoose". Roy Jones Jr. was fast and flashy, fought in a very weak era and rode a hype train to fame and fortune to his credit. He was not supremely skilled, terrible boxing stance/guard, had a rarely used and poorly thrown jab, typically threw wild (guard down) hooks, had inconsistent follow-thru on power punches. He did throw the uppercut well and had nimble feet to keep distance in his favor. His fights were typically boring because he didn't truly dominate opponents far inferior to him with just a handful of exceptions. Skill-wise, he couldn't carry Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s nor Larry Holmes jock straps. I recommend you go back to the boxing lab, my friend. Chase TMH!

You see that's the difference, Hopkins didn't rely more on his athelticism than his actual skills where Roy relied more on his athletic abilities, but as you get older they all fade away. Thats why Hopkins won, his style can be boring, but more effective and that's what matters

Can't compare the two in that aspect. Hopkins played it safe in fights throughout his entire career and is also an exception to every rule physically. The man is the biggest example of an anomaly if there ever was one, which is why they call him "the Alien". That being said, last time I checked, B-Hop didn't cut 25 lbs of solid muscle that would've permanently ruined his punch resistance, taken away his legs, and diminished his athletic ability like it did Roy. Age isn't necessarily the main factor in determining who's the least far past it. Jones' career after that 25 lb muscle loss is proof of that.

I think you got thrown into a media hype train, there was nothing exceptional about Roy. Not one thing. If there had been, in his 2 biggest fights (both wins) while in his prime versus the 2 best fighters he ever fought (while in their primes) B. Hopkins & J. Toney, the whole world would have seen and remembered "exceptional athleticism"! Yet, nobody remembers those fights, nobody gets together with a group of friends to re watch them. They were both boring fights. Bernard was a real one though, his career does have some very impressive moments. Roy Jones Jr. is one of the most overrated fighters ever!

Hopkins is a living legend, you can't take that away from him. However, during the mid 90 ' s Roy and James Toney dominated the middle, super middleweight divisions. Hopkins peaked and the other two had moved up to different weight divisions. None the less they have all achieved greatness, but I understand people's opinions as they have their favorites. I would have stacked it in this order, 1) Roy Jones 2) James Toney (my personal favorite of all time) 3) Bernard Hopkins

Going in to the fight, I had concerns Roy would not fair well. Here's the deal: Hopkins is a bitch,. In their prime when it counted, Roy beat that ass. Hopkins aged better and so decided to go around and bully guys close to his age who whipped his ass back in the day, so fuck him. Second, I teared up a little because I knew that was it for Roy. It wasn't because he lost, it's like when your favorite athlete plays his last game.

No if's, Roy went 50- 0 so very easily could have retired the greatest ever no questions asked (and still did IMO).But he's not about that (like some boxers today). The books show 49-1 but everyone knows from an ass-beating perspective he went 50-0. Roy wasn't feeling challenged so wanted to do things that nobody had seen i generations (if ever). He truly did much of his (post 50-0) activity for one reason: to save try and save boxing He felt it was dying as a sport (and it was) and I ll never forget him saying (a few months before Ruiz fight) how he realizes people were doubting him but it was drawing interest and that's what mattered to him (and meant every fu*king word of that). Oh, and beat that ass too. One thing I can tell you, he wasn't hurting for money. At all. He is just very competitive and there was nothing wrong with him going down swinging. Lots of MFers cherry-pick and sit on that record. Roys old skool.

I wish so badly that Roy would never have tried to cut that weight from Heavy back to Middle to fight trash Tarver, He destroyed all of his fast-twitch muscle fiber and his speed was his gift and his edge. My Fav fighter of all time right behind Iron Mike. Hurt my heart when he got knocked out, never should have happened. Still the Best Roy!!

I've forgotten more about boxing than you'll ever learn. RJJ's 2 best opponents (still in their prime) as was Roy, were B-Hop & J. Toney...Did Roy show up as an all time great in either fight? Is either fight MEMORABLE or worth watching twice? Now think about Ali/Liston, Ali/Frazier, Ali/Foreman, Leonard/Hearns, Leonard/Duran, Hearns/Hagler, Hearns/Duran, Holyfield/Bowe, Holyfield/Tyson, Wilder/Fury, Mayweather/Corrales, Mayweather/Cotto, Mayweather/Canello Alvarez and on and on...greatness shows up in the biggest moments, understand lil brand new.

Not Hopkins' finest moment. He had the win in the bag in terms of better technique. He did not need to indulge in all the fouling, Roy Jones was only retaliating and rightly so since Weeks was not protecting him. As a BHop fan, this fight was a great disappointment and you have to think that emotion - 17 years of it all bottled up - got the better of him on fight night. I think he was scared of losing to Jones Jr again, so pulled out every trick in the book even though he really didn't need to.

Exactly. Well said. Hopkins was an embarrassment in this fight. Was obvious he wasn't confident in beating Roy with boxing alone, so he did every dirty trick he's always done in one fight. Very disappointed and I'm sure if he's honest with himself, he himself will regret 'winning' this way.

Among the more fascinating and strange boxing matches of all time. Hopkins is characteristically a dirty fighter but he's tactical about it, represents the reality of getting away with something on the line as it is in life. He's a reality. Jones always was a clean fighter, a darling of the press and opposes Hopkins in style as well, with a more panache and pizazzy way which is unique to Jones. In the first Jones Hopkins fight, it was apparent that Hopkins had stamina and savvy to disrupt Jones' natural rhythmic dominance in the ring but at that time, not enough. With this amount of time having gone by, it is clear that Hopkins staying on his path in his weight division, refining and polishing his own style, honing and crafting himself into a superior version of himself through experience with less of an overal physical loss from his age. Jones on the other hand went through four weight divisions, was splintering into basketball briefly, developed a musical career, etc. This is impressive in its right but the contrast is similar to others since Jones began to condition himself beyond his natural weight! Before Tarver, he had to gain and then suddenly, drastically lose for Tarver. Jones discussed how it was 'very difficult' for him to make the weight for that fight, and in my opinion Jones *was never able to regain his stamina* after jumping around and out of his true weight division. It appears to have permanently diminished his endurance, and with his effusive, wild, spiritual (in my opinion) style it created a deficit for him to become effective as before in the ring! Thus it is possible that if Jones had re-invented his style to be more classical or in fact, almost anything to adjust to his new physical condition then he would have created greater odds for himself in the last phase of his career. Jones is so amazing, so athletic, so talented and beyond words that he's still impossible to really upset beyond points for the stronger, fitter and more in tune Hopkins. Hopkins loses for being a dirty fighter to make his point but Jones took more damage. Even in their careers, they are a bonded pair.

Everything said about Hopkins' behavior was spot-on. He was a cheap-shot artist and a drama queen. Thing is he set the tone and dominated this fight. Overwhelmingly disappointed in Roy's lackadaisical effort, nearly zero offensive production or pressure. No truly memorable punches or flurries. incredibly poor performance.
