Thanks for 200k subs guys, its crazy as hell!. I would love to do this series for all the decades dating back to 1870, let me know if you would like me to do it
I grew up watching roy jones junior... he is the most talented fighter of all time together with muhammad ali...both share the 1st place spot...that is just my humble opinion
Jones Jr was the total package. Elusiveness plus Power. He knew how to change levels to stagger his opponents then immediately threw power punches. Amazing precision and amazing power. Much respect!
Truly the best in his prime. Around this time he was so much more talented then the rest it was pointless fighting him. Only when Roy lost his speed & reflexes could anyone beat him. Greatest athlete of the 90's for sure a rare specimen.
Hefrron Bros he didn't ruin his legacy. He was a champ in 4 weight classes. He retired as a heavyweight contender. But atleast he had the balls to move up. He probably would of had a perfect career if he stayed in one weight class but he was determined to be the best boxer pound for pound
@@Rodageado opps my bad, auto correct, lightweight, he did fight light middleweight, but he could have fought middleweight, if stayed off the drugs, pound for pound all time, he had De La Hoya swinging at air lol, he never missed anyone that bad, Mayweather ain't got shit on PWs defense
Roy Jones Jr is the G.O.A.T on a B.O.A.T. everyone says that fighters get better as time goes on, but ive yet to see a better boxer than prime Roy Jones till this day.
Roy Jones Jr. actually had the record (50-0) if he didn't get disqualified against Burton. Oh its no surprise he is #1 on the list, the man won Fighter of the Decade by Ring Magazine.
hot take: ricardo lopez is SUPER underrated and was one of the most technically gifted boxers to have ever lived. every aspect of his game was top notch, and i actually think he could have beaten nearly anyone at feather or even lightweight, too. he is maybe the closest thing we will ever see to a flawless boxer. just a shame no one watched him due to his size.
Love to see true boxing fans and hear their respective opinions.. I'm not very old but my generation and those younger missed out on much of this, esp the dominance of RJJr which lasted basically a decade between 93-03.. Due to the direction boxing has taken since, profits and the undefeated factor now weighs more than dominance compared to competition, talent, etc.. True there are many other fighters during this era who were truly or borderline great but Boxing Legends TV was pretty spot on considering this is a topic that will forever be up for debate.. I do believe that Tapia, Mosley, Collins (Benn even) and a few others were a little more deserving in the honorable mention section over those who were chosen but again this is all debatable.. Great work Boxing Legends Tv..
Cryer24597 um no shit you dumb ass of close ali is the greatest heavyweight but ali isnt the greatest of all time outta all divisions and thats the truth i am a fanboy jones because the facts on jones shits on alot of other boxers youre an idiot and dont know shit bout boxing history and blantely says ali is better than any other boxer known to man which i agree and disagree with that but jones did fight good opponets hes like ali almost he was to dominate like ali in his 60s no man in the heavyweight divison even now could touch an 60s ali he was to dominate
You know what I love about this channel ? Despite the fact you have a golden voice, you still know the value in letting the footage be your brand. This is why I don't mind that BLTV on the screen, because it means the highest quality content.
Thanks for putting Tito on the list, he's heavily underated by many. Titos was the true champion and no one could beat him at the 147 and 154 pounds. He began to lose when he jumped weight and head to the middleweight facing natural monsters such as Bernard Hopkins and a great although old Roy Jones Jr.
I’m glad Hamed made the list because some people don’t realise how important he was to shining a light on the lower weight classes and demanding to be treated like the main event
Awesome Vid!.. Btw...What was that track you have for the honorable mentions section of the vid? At least 5 other folks have been asking in the comment section....cmon don't hold out on us let me know and I'll see to it that if get you at least 10 more subscribers. Please cite those tracks.
Due to all his cherry picking, ducking, playing politics, publicly taking step aside money & suing other fighters for not offering him enough step aside money. Lewis is a fraud, possibly the biggest fraud in boxing history. He never beat one genuine contender, never took a genuine contenders unbeaten record, never fought a genuine top class opponent until after they had become faded n jaded from fighting wars with each other. Then he ducked the rematch with with the one fresh contender he did fight & retired instead & even then Klitschko wasnt unbeaten ! The only name on his record for the entire 90s is Holyfield & that was in 1999 after Holyfield had a heart attack, retired & came back. Mercer arguably beat him, Bruno gave him hell, McCall KOd him & none of those guys were unbeaten. He was a glorified bum, a political token.
@@County_da_kang He beat NOBODY who wasnt already beaten, broken n battered by either Bowe, Holyfield & Tyson. McCall n Rachman were only famous for ... BEATING LEWIS ! He was at best 2nd division getting his glass jaw cracked by 3rd division nobodies/prospects ... WHO WERENT EVEN UNBEATEN ! Bowes record wasnt great in terms of names compared to Tyson & Holyfields but at least he fought a PRIME Holyfield & he was signed to fight Lewis before Lewis BLEW IT by getting KOd by McCall. NOBODY ever took step aside money before Lewis done it so often it became normal, before Lewis it was a disgraceful thing to do to take money n surrender yer right to fight for the RICHEST PRIZE IN SPORT ! Lewis cut his cloth accordingly, his record tells no lies & Im telling no lies about him or his padded, carefully managed record.
You gave me a new respect for Lennox. I just never had heard or seen his career put in such a great perspective before. Well done you boys are the best!
When people say Mayweather outclasses and dominate his opponents has never seen Roy Jones during his prime.. flyweight weight class to welterweight GOAT is Pacman. Middleweight to heavyweight, Roy Jones Jr as GOAT

Man, watching RJJ in his prime just makes me wanna cry. Such a God given talent he was, in his prime TBE.

He dead ?
@@reinaldomanuel8488 yup
@@deontaykembar2239 robbed against Chavez
My opinion the best lightweight ever along with Duran
Prime RJJ is a God in the ring back in the 90s his reflex timing is second to none.
@EXPECT LOL Floyd didn't fight 230 lbs heavyweights like Roy did bro
@EXPECT LOL no, floyd may well be better and is certainly more disciplined. Roy is far more athletic and skilled.
่
Pernell Whitaker is the ORIGINAL BLUEPRINT
Roy Jones was a cherrypicker.
so refreshing to have a channel on UA-cam that really knows his boxing, great list. Keep up the hard work BLT!
Joe Rogan Experience Agreed
Jones Jr was the total package. Elusiveness plus Power. He knew how to change levels to stagger his opponents then immediately threw power punches. Amazing precision and amazing power.

Ruined his legacy my ass!!
Forget those later fights and just appreciate the unique master of the 90's!
Pound for Pound, the best there is. He was a video game character come to life.
Seeing the 'Honorable Mentions' made me realize how much insane talent there was in the 90's
6:59 This was the video where i heard of Pernell Whitaker for the first time.
Now i heard he died from a car accident... RIP champion.
Pernell was ridiculous, my favorite growing up, he had Floyd's defense and Pacman's offense, best middleweight ever, imo

I have the feeling Errol Spence could be the Roy Jones jr. succesor.
Paschan TOPs next joke...
@@PaschanTOPs stay off them rocks son.... they bad for your health
At middleweight who beats Roy Jones..... I'm talking ever .....maybe Sugar Ray Robinson maybe Hagler
@Jeffrey gundlach Don't forget Roy Jones was faster than any other boxer (even Willie Pep) and hit harder than Hagler and Robinson at middleweight.
Ricardo Lopez is one of the greatest fighters of all time p4p. Thanks for including him.
Agree
Roy went from a 155 lb debut to owning a HWT belt. It will never be done again in my lifetime, if ever.
im 10 seconds into watching ive already got a feeling prince naseem will be in there lol
damn i was right!
My favorite boxer the Prince
Fuck prince. Bernard fucked him up
الشاهد omg you’re like cancwr
selected his opponents never respected them = poor prince
Thank you! Enjoyed your selections-especially Ricardo Lopez!
Me too
Roy Jones Jr. actually had the record (50-0) if he didn't get disqualified against Burton. Oh its no surprise he is #1 on the list, the man won Fighter of the Decade by Ring Magazine.
He disqualified against M. Griffin
@Long Beach Anonymous The autocorrector
Your actually a abortion survivor .
Where's Makunouchi Ippo ?
I know your making a joke, but Ippo is nothing comparing to these fighters
Just Cause I'd say martinez but he's based on Lopez lol. takamura would make it
Just Cause if you know hes joking, why would u even leave that comment
Date Eiji and Ricardo Martinez are both deserving of a spot on the list
Imho he could be represented by Tyson for his peek-a-boo style.. or Michael Katsidis for crazy in-fighting.
RJJ... Best fighter I've ever had the privilege to watch in his prime.
He was unbeatable
Love the list but not even an honourable mention for Michael McCallum that's an oversight.
That honorable mentions music thooooooooooooooo
Did you found it?
He should credit music he uses. Very similar taste to me.
anyone found it guys?
You guys know that song? (Sorry for my English)
What's the name of the beat in the very beginning?

I have to admit, RJJ was the bets fighter I ever saw, dazzling hand speed, punching power, bravado,. He had it all!!!!
Agreed. That version of Roy would have DESTROYED Joe Calzaghe, and I have a lot of respect for Joe.
Love Lennox, and eubank was such a gentleman, and superb speaker. I liked listening to him talk as much as fight.
Eubank, Benn, Tyson. The lisp is endless.
Congrats for the 200 K !
Thank you! You have been here from the start, and I will never forget that
Because you always provide quality ;)

Love RJJ most！My first favorite boxer！
Love this channel! It’s my boxing bible!
Excellent top 10 list. i cant disagree with it..Roy jones the best boxer ive ever seen..Amazing talent..
Channel deserves a million subs. Excellent countdowns.
I forget how did the prediction James Toney made about Roy Jones turnout?
Man this channel is DOPE...
And it has ropes. Do you think it could be maybe a 'rope-a-dope' channel?
Hard to argue anyone beating Rj for top spot in the 90s!
Guy in his prime was absolutely unreal... absolute pleasure to watch those years
Great job brother. Please continue with this series of videos.
pound 4 pound da baddest man throwing down Roy Jones Jr fashow

How did Steve Collins not at least get an honourable mention! He beat both Eubank and Benn twice and retired on a 15 fight win streak.

Can you make a video on Marvin Hagler? he was one of the greatest middleweights who ever lived but I feel he's underappreciated
