bhop never went up and cleared out every division like roy.
then, after becoming a hw, went back down and damaged his physiology, to defend a title he could have just dropped.
plus, roy bodied bhop when you would judge the height of their boxing skill.
not to mention, bhop never got in ring with imo,...the most dangerous boxer in the sport:

GLEN JOHNSON

when, johnson was at the height of his boxing prowess.
plus, roy fought johnson weight depleted and with his body's physiology completely out of whack.

which roy did just to chase history.
as, that was all that there was left legacy wise for roy in boxiing to do.

if you mention roy's losses...
they all have asterik's beside them.
as there is a much larger story to the losses than just what is printed on the box.

You don't know shyt about boxing, I'm a Roy fan, he was the best when he was ranked p4p, but his reign on top was shorter than leprechuans

So Glen Johnson was at the height of his boxing prowess when he was a old man and KO"d Jones with ease

but Bernard Hopkins was the quintessential late bloomer, but Roy beat him at his height

Hopkins beat glen johnson when he was undefeated

and Roy Jones never cleared out any division he moved up in weight classes

Hopkins was the longest reiging Middleweight champion in history and even unified all the titles, becoming UNDISPUTED champion at MW when he belt De La Hoya

Roy never did that

Roy didn't have no comp, wasn't his fault, but he literally had nobody to fight

even if you retired at Ruiz, winning the WBA heavyweight belt was a nice notch in the belt

only fight he looked weight drained was the first Tarver fight where he won
he didn't look right in that fight

in the second fight, he was back to roy jones he was winnning the fight showing speed and power, and just got caught

but if you watch any one of his fights you can see roy was always wide open when he as on the offensive

skills pay bills, Bernard is better and will go down as such when its all said and done

*waits on the homie @patscorpio opinion*

my opinion breh...roy was never one of my favorite fighters and i have my criticisms of him but I'd be lying if i said he wasn't the most physical gifted fighter ive seen in my lifetime....one of the very few fighters who ive seen literally whip technically sound boxers and dangerous punchers with absolute ease in his prime

If roy jones was the greatest boxer he wouldn't have fallen off when he got slower


there is no way to do what Jones did.
then, beat the level of comp he faced at that weight at that time in the division.
physiologically, your body can not drop twenty five pounds of muscle and keep your physiology intact.
it just is no way, especially to come out and fight tarver twice and Johnson.
you can not drop that much weight and fight top line fighters solidified at that weight at the top of that heavy handed division.

Roy's reign on top was long as fukk breh, what are you talking about? He was p4p #1 for years. He was the best fighter, of any division, of the 1990s and you can make an argument that he was the best overall athlete of that decade as well.

Let's be real here, over the last 30 years or so there have only been three REAL P4P #1s - Sweet Pea, Roy, and Floyd.

Roy was probably p4p for 3 and 4 years, Oscar De La Hoya was # 1 pound for pound, and so was Shane Mosley for a few years around the same time roy was still undefeated

Roy dominated for ten years, but I'm just talking p4p

And what I'm saying is at no point was Oscar or Shane a better p4p fighter than Roy Jones, just as at no point was Manny (or anyone else) ever a better p4p fighter than Floyd during his run.
