I think this was Roy's last great fight in his prime as a light heavy. Bulking up and coming down from the Ruiz fight ended his super reflexes.
I will never see that kind of of speed and power again.
Prime Roy Jones was such a joy to watch
no doubting clinton woods is a world calibre fighter, RJJ is just a freak. Respect to both of them
This so beautiful, this is pure and epic talent. No one ever was that talented and good. No wonder so many of our beloved experts have him as the best ever, Max, Larry, Jim, even Ray Leonard admits Jones was unvkomparable. Wenn we, as boxing lovers see him like that, there's a little sadness inside that he didn't hang them up after 2003 and Ruiz, after being the youngest Olympic finalist ever, after having the longest prime ever and the longest run on pfp No. 1 ever, and that he let it happen to get defeatet by Hopkins in their 2nd and Calzaghe. But he was not good with the cash and he simply loved it. What a giant, what an artist, and still what a man.
You can tell Clinton woods is giving his all in this fight. Yet jones is so fast and powerful.
Roy Jones in his prime was the most talented boxer ever.
I'm always at awe with RJJ style.
Prime Roy, my God. He could beat any MW or SMW ever, conceivably beat any LHW ever, and HW Roy would have been a top 5 heavy in his time had he actually pursued that route. Jones was an extremely rare breed of fighter, and we were lucky to be alive during his time.
Woods is a first class fighter, prime Roy Jones was just too much for anyone to handle.
100% original boxing style, probably wil never be replicated
Prime Roy Jones
The day after the fight, Jones took Clinton and his brothers fishing on his lake...Both class guys
Regardless of Woods, look at Jones in this fight. His next fight was HW and then Tarver 1 (which he won). ALL of this was gone. Loosing that weight killed him. He should have retired after the first Tarver fight (I agree with the 117-111 score the most). He simply was never the same again. You can't loose 25lbs of muscle at 35 and expect to be the same.
i bet none of y'all noticed a young Andre Ward at
RJJ had unbelievable speed
17.40 jones taps gloves n smiles , jones feels sorry for him to be fighting himself , hes at his best n hes kinda fast , honoured to have met the great roy jones , a truly great fighter
Probably the most unbeatable fighter ever right here. This fight.
