IMO Roy is the most unbeatable fighter in the History of Boxing. Ive watched all of his fights. In his prime, Noone had even a small chance at beating him. Seriously could anyone have beaten this guy in his prime?

Sigh.........
Roy was a great fighter in his prime but here's a list of guys at those weights who had at least a "small chance" of beating him
Robinson, Monzon, Hagler, Calzaghe, Ward, Mclellan, Eubank, Jackson, Burley, Lamotta, Turpin, Benn.
All of those guys in their prime, and they are the ones off the top of my head have at least a "small chance" at beating Roy.
He was a great fighter, but it only takes one punch to turn things around in boxing, Jones I feel always had a vulnerability about him although he was very hard to catch clean, but it could happen, even someone like Julian Jackson, Jones only got to make one mistake, get caught and it's goodnight.
It's a shame we never got Mclellan vs Benn because I feel he had the perfect style to take Jones out. Badly.Last edited by Earl-Hickey; 07-29-2012, 01:21 AM.

Also if a guy like Julian ****ing Jackson caught ANYBODY clean it would be goodnight.
