Nothing like him before him and nothing like him since. Roy, at his absolute best, was one of the most perfectly constructed fighters there has ever been.
Roy jones jr in his prime is the best example of a #1 pound for pound fighter. He dominated multiple weight brackets/divisions.. But unlike many others greats that dominate in the lower weights, Roy smoked the best of the best in the heavier and most difficult divisions. He was a phenom
This is by far the best super middle in boxing history. Nobody did this to Sugar Boy and no one ever could. Roy destroys everyone easily and yet you have the Steve Collins 😂😂😂 or Calzaghe thinking they'd have any chance to win.... believe me .... Ya wouldn't!
Spectacular KO from RJJ. Mailinga was a tough competitor too. He fought Nigel Benn, before and after this fight. Lost a controversial 10 round decision, ( 1992 ) and then took Benn’s WBC strap off him ( 1996 )
This was the first time Malinga had ever been stopped, and had wins over Gregory Clark (former South African Middleweight champion), Nicky Walker who had a win over Sakkie Horn (someone who had two wins over a young Malinga), kickboxer Trevor Ambrose, Robin Reid, and the aforementioned win over Benn
What were u in kindergarten in 99 or something. I ain’t never heard no teen from the 90’s who’re 40 to 50 rn use bruh and lol in the same sentence get outta here with your lying ass
Loved Roy Jones but was very upset that he ducked Steve Collins the Irishman sorry there is no other word for it Steve kept on and on and on and on and on and on and Roy didn't give him the chance because he destroyed eubank and benn and Roy did not want to risk it there's no other reason for it he was a duck quack quack quack 😂
@@watcha_mean5134There’s a small group of Roy critics that believe this same thing. They comment this on nearly every Roy fight. You’ll learn that they all tend to denounce the wins over a prime Toney and Hopkins but rather focus on something as silly as him ducking Steve Collins and Tiger Dariusz. Both who only have wins over old war torn fighters out of their primes. You’ll get the occasional him ducking Michael Nunn despite Nunn also being out of his prime. They’re delusional.
Anything but slow, ur delusional if u think he's still. But yeah, Floyd was overall the better boxer, better Traps, Ring IQ, Defense, Footwork, Counter-punching, Inside-Fighting

During his prime, Roy was miles ahead of fighters worldwide.

Roy's footwork looks slow and stiff. Floyd was better than Roy, almost way better.
