IMPOSSIBLE SPEED - Roy Jones Jr. (Captain Hook)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 авг 2021
- Roy Jones Jr is arguably the greatest pound for pound fighter ever. His freakish gifts were unlike any other. Speed, power, defensive elusiveness, and reflexes that have never been rivaled. His reign was dominant, and he captured belts in multiple divisions. This original documentary examines the entirety of Roy's career.

the only thing that sucks about these documentaries is that they are not 3 hours long... I enjoy them so damn much that 30 minutes is just not enough :( ( ( great job man
Watch Roy Jones Jr: Pound for Pound and make it a clean 45
I started with Big George. Just typed in his name and watched all the videos that seemed worth it. I'd do the same with Roy like I'm about to. Still wish he hadn't cuddled iron Mike though
Do a documentary about Prince Naseem Hamed or Amir Khan
And also do a documentary about Joe Fraizer
Plz spread these messages so he actually does this
Netflix should just pay the man so we get seasons of this.
Right just show all his fights and everything that went on in the background
Lol right
So you sell it to Netflix and they automatically make seasons? I don't think so. I know you mean well but you're not too bright. Lol
@@noillcallyou don't forget the dressing room, just for you. 😚
Fuck Netflix.
Roy had no equal at his peak he was just sensational
Yet people think hes not in the top 10 greatest of all time.
At his peak, Roy was superhuman. Never seen anyone more untouchable with incredible hands.
Your eyes don't lie...he used ped's.
Roy was a once in a lifetime kind of boxer. In his prime there wasn’t a person that he couldn’t hit. He was insanely fast, could punch from any angle and direction and had a super high boxing iq. I’m grateful I was alive to see him back when he was in his prime.
Some of Jones knockouts can only be described as artistically beautiful.
no
Hands down the most talented boxer to ever live. Thank you Roy Jones Jr. !
@Bruce Wayne lol. Good point.
Dude was peak talent. I have never seen someone peak as he was. He made great talented fighters look average.
Close second to Robinson
Manny!!!
@@monkeydog8681 absolutley. When he was at his peak, his skill level and talent and ability was never matched or duplicated, when he was at his prime. The only fighter who was ever able to duplicate, and maybe even surpass Roy is the Boston fighter Joe Calzaghe. He actually beat Roy Jones and made him look average. Hats off to Joe as well. He was just as sick as Roy if not better. He retired undefeated if I remember correctly. Still Roy's skill and ability was one of the best ever.
I am embarrassed to say that I was unfamiliar with his career.
What a amazing fighter and amazing career!
What for real...wow..but u redeemed yourself lol
Go watch sugar ray
@@wendelllewis882 And Pernell Whitaker.
most dominant ever. his fights weren't even remotely competitive.
Best pound for pound boxer ever, if he retired after Tarver nobody would question it.
I see Roy's career in two stages ...the first stage is what I judge him by ...in his prime ....
Hard to say.... i think Pacquiao, Jones and GGG share the throne until now. ( cassius as superchamp)
@@Heuteja GGG GFOH Are you drunk ?
@@Heuteja triple g is not on their level at all
i loved RJJ up until i found out he got caught using steroids its a well kept secret so it tarnishes his legacy for me how often did he use or how good was he reaky without steroids if you dont belive me google was RJJ ever caught using steroids it tells you all about i originally foumd out thru a diifetrent source some one in boxing they even named the drug he was caught with in his system all they did was move the fight to a different state with no testing
He had genetics, he had talent, he trained hard, he was really blessed by God, one of the best ever, what a mastery for so many years
5:37 was the fastest combinations I have EVER SEEN !! His opponent must have been knocked out, woken up, knocked out, woken up... that was CRAAAAZY!!
He's definitely up there in my opinion, speed, agility, power, heart, chin, entertainment value, he had it all. So exciting to watch, incredible.
Chin? Lol
@@swizza.i.p7204Actually, the second Tarver fight and Glen Johnson fight were the ones he got knocked out bad after extreme weight loss. Even at an old age and recent fights, he had not tasted the canvas.
@@swizza.i.p7204he definitely had a chin. Father Time just undefeated. Man got hit before, just didn’t go down🤦🏽♂️
He came to my elementary school and spoke to us kids in the classroom. He didn’t just have all the kids in the school in one room, he spoke and met with each individual class. He’s a great guy and still loved in the community.
I’ve heard he has paid for kids to go to college in Pensacola
Roy and sugar ray Leonard and Shane Mosley the most decent people in boxing
@@ChampChamp2024 there’s actually a bunch of great fighters who are great people out the ring. Ali, Ray Robinson, foreman(old), Patterson, pacquio, etc
@@amirdawson770 puntoobubano con luisito guinfanal
Because of him i started boxing 12 years ago! His style is the.most beautiful! I love you Roy Jones Jr. you saved my life!
Roy Jone is my personal GOAT
He’s the GOAT period can’t tell me nothing lol
@@GYMJAX Jones Jr Is Indeed The Greatest Light Heavyweight Boxing🥊 Champion🏆 Of All Time Thanks To You & KingSuperior. 👑🐐
He is the best fighter I have seen
factts. pound for poound best boxer ever.
I actually love that he fought until someone beat him....thats what I imagine a GOAT Champion does...
Crawford is probably next to lose unless he retires soon in 1 or 2 more fights.
He went 49-1 (really 50-0)
Did it much better than Floyd
If he woulda retired then he would be the all time goat to 99% of people.
why even go there? useless speculation
He just didn't make smart investments (something Floyd Mayweather would say 😁)
@@bigrich0926 lol 😆😂facts
His resume ain’t fw Floyd not even close
If Roy would of retired after winning heavyweight title. He would of been most likely the goat. Or at least top 3 all time. He was the best i ever seen. He just fought a little too long past his prime
I’ll never get tired of these😭😭😭
I literally put his videos on shuffle and watch them all day lol
Neveeeeeeeer! But where is ANDERSON SILVA
Roy Jones Jr. was a incredibly skilled boxing technician.The full package in his prime 🥊🥊
The Greatest Light Heavyweight Champion🏆 Of All Time In Boxing 🥊 History!
He’d lose to a lot of heavyweights, but the fact that he won a belt at every weight class from middleweight to heavyweight makes him the most accomplished boxer of all time hands down
Well it wasn't his natural weight class.....and those heavyweights would have been demolished if they faught outside their weight class too.....
I’d have to argue that manny pacquiao is
@@jedmcevoy9841 what abt joe Louis?
He still holds the record for most title defences..
@@jedmcevoy9841 , Manny? Really?! I don't see it.
@@fadeblac5633 well pacquiao has more titles so more accomplished but not necessarily better fighter
If Roy retired after the first tarver fight, I think he probably would have went down as the best ever.
Agree the best ever to do it his untouchable, but after those devastated loss rj could never get back up and never be the same again but still probably top 10 all time greats
I agree. He is still top 10 with the losses imo.
True. Woulda been an important move. I agree.
Agreed
Not really, his resume isn't the best, even before the Traver loss.
In his prime Roy was untouchable. Best I’ve ever seen.
Not even close, totally dominate

Factx
Same. He had so many "holy shit did you just see that?" moments- dude was an unreal talent.
People don't know he used moves he got from his Roosters. He did it in this fight. He was a true beast. Mad respect to Roy!
He's and Sugar Ray Leonard are my favorite boxers of all times. I remember the 88 Olympics when he got robbed of the gold metal. He was a complete beast in his prime.
I almost FORGOT how amazing Roy was. Whipping Tony like that is an underrated accomplishment
He embarrassed Toney so bad ...and Toney was a great fighter but it wasn't even close
Didnt toney have to cut weight and wasnt he past prime?
@@colorado2455 wasnt past his prime at all
@@colorado2455 Toney was weight drained but nowhere near past his prime. He was in his 20s. He would go on later to win multiples titles in different weight classes. It's not Jones fault that Toney wasn't disciplined at that time. Toney would've beaten any other super middleweight that night, but not Roy Jones Jr.
@@ObsidianElohim idk he would have beat mccallum being weight drained.
Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jr were the most amazing and dominating boxers to watch when they were in their prime. Truly amazing.
My first and second favourite fighters of all time!!! The third one is Oscar "the golden boy " De La Hoya.
@@cm8836 Yep. He was good too.
George foreman as well went 40-0 with 37 knockouts.
@@Djuane Yeah that's true!
Can't say that, Joe fraizer, Ali, sugar ray Leonard, then roy George foreman and Evander holyfield. Tyson in the earlier years were fun
7:30 Roy said he had a seizure and then giggled. Straight Savageness 😁
Not funny to me
@@steviejetera1601 👍🏼
Roy Jones was such a class act. My brother was in the press corp and I had the opportunity to see a bunch of bouts. Roy was always a gentleman and was gracious to Everyone, not only the people that he needed to be. He was great inside and outside the ring.
I never knew that Roy, by far the best fighter in the world in his prime, actually declined higher-paying fights in Vegas so that he could put on shows in his hometown. That's awesome, man. He never forgot his roots and where he came from. How you haven't been signed to make more of these documentaries for a king's salary is beyond me, man. Another incredible video.
Pensacola will always love Rpy for what he did and still does. He was just as great out-of the ring as he was in the ring
I feel the same way, he really deserves to work for ESPN or SportsCenter, because his shit is better than them. If this dude had REAL access to the BEST FILM without fear of copyright strikes ⁉️ Good lord 🙏 He deserves to get PAID
Dude, initially just appreciated your comment as RJJ is still, IMO, the p4p GOAT. (at least until Loma retires. Roy himself agrees w/ me here) Then I noticed your pic. Again IMO as a (former) lifelong FB fan, #16 is, for me personally, another f’n GOAT and another one just as genuine as Jones. Was a fan since his ASU days, lived in Phx then, and his Rose Bowl game was straight-up legend shit, even in a loss. I’m a CO native and when #7 retired I dreamt about seeing “The Snake” in orange & blue, when that finally happened I can’t even describe the emotions. I hadn’t ever even cared much about that side of the ball until Jake, he brought a defensive intensity to the offense. Maybe not the most skilled QB ever but he GENUINELY wanted to WIN and didn’t give a shit if it looked pretty or not! Favre & Elway are really the only close comparisons. Those seasons were the summit for me and really the demise as well, wasn’t ever the same after that. The contempt I developed for Mike Shanahan over that situation boiled over to the rest of the game and essentially ruined it from within for me. It stayed fun thru the Manning years but that was the end for me, they’re all just a pack of showboating, money fueled whores now. No more ‘TEAMs’, just a bunch of ‘I’s.
Apologies for the ‘life story’ comment but Roy Jones Jr. and Jake Plummer are 2 men that I hold in equally high regard, not just in their respective fields but also in life. I actually have my photo with each of them and I’m typically not the photo-op type. I couldn’t just happen to notice your pic on a RJJ video and not say something. Thanks for stoking the memories, cheers to you!
It sounds honorable but in this business, boxers should scrape as much cash as they can in exchange for their brain trauma because all those people in his hometown don’t give af about him now ‼️
Roy is an always was a real one. Rare
Whenever I see a new bored film it’s like a full “popcorn & candy” event! Nobody brings it home better. Thanks
Roy was just michael Jordan of boxing in the 90s ..he absolutely own it
Roy Jones highlights are up there with the greats of ANY sport, Jordan. Pele, Barry Sanders, etc
Been watching Roy’s fights recently that left hook was his jam
You should get a contract for making these documentaries. PERIOD.
Please, they wouldn't appreciate Joe Vincent
From middle weight to heavyweight
Yup you're the GOAT🥊
The behind the hands behind the back body shot was amazing one of the greatest and also a good showman he gave people what they came to see
Roy was spectacular.
Exceptional power, uncontested quickness, amazing knowledge of the game and a warriors heart! The best Pound 4 Pound Boxer ever. His only flaw was not knowing when to say when, that man wanted all the smoke!
Yes he was.
SPECTACULAR BUT IMPATIENT!!! DIDNT HAVE THE HIGH BOXING IQ LIKE FLOYD MAYWEATHER JR!!! OR ROY WOULD BE CONSIDERED THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME!!! AT ANY WEIGHT DIVISION!! EVEN AS IS HES IN THE DISCUSSION NOW!!! ROY NEEDED BETTER HANDLERS!!! SAME AS ONCE CUSTAMATO DIED TYSON WAS MISHANDLED!!
WANTING ALL THE SMOKE CURSED HIM THOUGH!!! I TELL PEOPLE THOSE SUPER HUMAN ATHLETES HAVE NEVER BEEN HIT SO THEY DONT KNOW WHEN TO BACK OFF!!! BUT WHEN THEY SLOW DOWN ITS ONNNN!!
He was Spectactical
The guy who “won” the gold holding Roy’s hand up was awesome. Hates the way it happened but it was good to see him know Roy won.
Roy said the so called winner, came to his locker room afterwards and said, "You beat me". Roy said, that was all he needed to hear and then he was ready to move on!
The MOST honorable thing the Korean fighter could have and SHOULD have done was, not accept it and gave it to Roy! He probably would have been killed tho because, you KNOW how them Asians are about their so called honor🤷
@@vladimirjackson1272 nah not in south korea i think
@@maxpainmedia Who knows? 😂 He may have been scared for his life or maybe he didn't even know the fix was on before the games! He looked genuinely surprised when that called him the winner!
@@vladimirjackson1272 well known culture of japanese not all asians though.
Out of all of the great fighters that I love Roy Jones Jr is my absolute favorite to watch. You can just tell that he went into his fights to have fun and just loved every minute in the ring.
He was the only reason why I wanted to play fight night
Omg yessss💯💯🖤
The free Roy they gave you for me was never any good he'd get rocked so easy, stamina drained after a few rounds from body shots, It's the prime 90s Roy that you paid for he was a damn monster on fight night I literally went over 80 fights without losing with that DLC
Him and de la Hoya were my favorites on fight night
@@Brawling_Style what fight night was this
"Your orthodox boxing is no match for my fighting rooster style"
RJJ
Man i get so hyped when i see a Joseph Vincent boxing documantary pop up. Best stuff on RUclips hands down
Can’t be touched can’t be stoped can’t be moved can’t be rocked
WE HOT
When will these gentlemen learn
Roy Jones Jr was an absolutely astonishing boxer! I watched his bouts in the '88 Olympic Games and thought that nothing could stop him winning the gold, he was so dominant in every fight. Then that fucking shambles of a robbery occurred and I was gobsmacked.
The thing about your man Roy Jones Jr was that, throughout his career, he invariably fought top-notch, quality boxers and not only beat them but made them look like amateurs. Furthermore, there wasn't a single journeyman among his opponents. Which can't be said for many world champions of any era. A boxer with such supreme skill and punching power comes along about every 50 - 60 years or so. It's small wonder that he's become a true legend. He absolutely deserves it!
MsG
Roy Jones, proud fighter and best fighter of all time. Good documentary, Joseph Vincent!
Whoa now. Top 5 p4p.
Let’s talk about it
Make a movie about roy??
Sugar Ray Robinson
The amazing thing about Joe Vincent is that despite having 1000000+ subscribers, he still goes into the comment section to acknowledge the fans. Love seeing all the ❤️s. Amazing videos brother. Thanks for taking the time to do them.
What a guy 😂 ❤️
What a guy
Bots do that for channels now
My man IS THE GOAT!! Every Division/Weight class he entered the ring at was his for the taking. I don't care what his lifetime record reflects. NOBODY can or has matched what he was able to do! And he was a Humble down to earth although flashy dude who didn't forget where he came from!! ROY JONES JR. #1🐐
A, genuine, once in a generation talent. The most entertaining and exciting fighter I've had the good fortune of seeing fight.
"Perfect Timing" was indeed perfect timing LOL I see you Joey Vince
got dayum. what a timing indeed.
Who is that? For research purposes ofc
@@wrongviewer ah, a man of science I see.
Yuuuum!
27:43 perfection indeed 😁😁
my most favorite boxer growing up. so stylish and powerful in his prime.
@jazz03 Same here. Not to mention Roy was 15 and 0 at the start of his career. These days we have "champs" that are 15 and 0. Loma may be an exception with 400 amateur fights, he earned his titles fighting champs.
Even the best will loose eventually..He is the best boxer i have ever seen.His speed,reflexes and his punching power is just amazing..
My favorite boxer of all time!.. 💯👌👍
im not even starting but i have depression and you give me a reason to live another day. Thank you
Hope you’re okay bro 🙏🏼 keep fighting
Roy was absolutely amazing at his peak. I loved how he avenged his controversial loss to Montell Griffin in spectacular fashion.
Well....it wasn't controversial...he clearly violated league policy.
That's the loss that kept him from being 50-0 before Mayweather.
@@joshclearwater6461 yeah he did, but we know Montel didn't have a chance to beat Jones. 😏 But yeah, that's the tough thing about that boxing adrenaline rush; everyone has to be mindful of the rules at all times.
@@daparadigmRoy jones was and is by far a better fighter than Floyd. Jones went into the ring to fight, not comete against Usain Bolt.
@@joshclearwater6461it was still controversial bc it was his first loss are you slow
Roy was absolutely untouchable in his prime.... entirely in a league of his own.
The closest competition were miles from his level....(!)....He was an absolute phenomenon....
One of the PFP GOATs‼️💯 One of my favorite, like a mini prime Tyson. Two of my favorites, but each very special in their own ways. Folks NEED to know about Roy Jones Jr‼️💯 A WICKED combination of speed, power, elusiveness, and precision. It's rare to have all of that in one fighter. Dude is insane, boxing legend 💯
If he stopped boxing in 1999, he’d be the GOAT.
2003 after ruiz
Better than Floyd 💪🏼
Tend to agree with you although for some reason no one holds Sugar Ray Robinsons utter debacle of a later life career against him in terms of being called a GOAT.
@@thegadflygang5381 TRUTHHH
@@maccagodmcdowall8522 He was better than Floyd with his reflexes but nothing else. Floyd’s fundamentals were WAY better and carried him into his 40s. Roy on the other hand depended solely on his reflexes and once they slowed with age he started getting knocked out
Paused at 2 seconds to give a like because I don't have to watch it to know it's the highest octane you can get in a sports video, JV your videos capture athletes at their best with no BS drama added, you tell us like it is, nothing more nothing less.
Samereee
😂 me too 🙌
Greatest of all time in his prime.. noone could touch him in any era
Prime Roy jones jr vs GGG ?
Lol
@@bardshitler3328ggg stood no chance
Hearns maybe could
S. R. R. ?, Monzon ?.
23:50 that quote by Jones is brutal. Cold and honestly delivered. He a multichamp
I'd always known RJJ's name, but never knew the extent of how good he actually was. Thanks for the video! Entertaining as always!
One of the PFP GOATs for sure. He was amazing, one of my favorite ‼️💯🔥🔥🔥
He was the best from 175 to 160 all-time in my opinion I have seen Hagler i think he beats Hagler via desicision and Robinson hearns and leanoard I seen all these fighters in my lifetime except Robinson and watched plenty of his fights and I think Roy whoops them all..
The @@lafayette-. The first,
Easily my favorite boxer of all time. I remember watching the Y'all must've forgot "Can't be touched" boxing highlights well over 1000 times. I first saw it on youtube around 2008/2009 and it was the most jaw dropping spectacle I've ever seen. Hands down, hands behind his back, Dancing, spinning around, bob and weave..
A masterclass in exciting and entertaining combat. Smoked two legends in Bernard Hopkins and James Tony.
He will always be my favorite an absolute living legend. Thanks Mr. Joseph Vincent!
Watching Jones box is art!!! I can re-watch all his fights and still be amazed!!
I remember Tarver giving Roy a hard time about how losing the weight didn't matter but when Tarver bulked up to heavyweight for the Rocky movie he was in then had to get back down to 175 lbs to fight Hopkins he finally admitted the weight loss really set him back. Chris Byrd experienced the same thing as he was a legitimately competitive heavyweight for a few years but tried to get back down to light heavyweight and got destroyed. It's one thing to lose 5-10 pounds for a fight but once you start losing over that, especially muscle weight, your body isn't in good shape when you're fighting at an elite level. Yes, in terms of health compared to a normal person you're in great shape but not in MMA or boxing, that kind of loss is really damaging and it sealed Jones fate. Tarver eventually moved up because he also just wasn't the same. It's a lesson future boxers hopefully learn.
RJJ had a major issue, in that he had no rival. nobody was even remotely competitive. so he kept going up in weight, to find new challengers. shouldn't have gone up to hw though.
@user-cz3zj8yw5j yeah but his other issue was not preparing his style for when he aged. He was smart, he should have known eventually his physical skill would decline and started adding things to his repertoire. Sucks because he is my all-time favorite fighter and watching him unable to adjust was rough. In his prime though, the man was a sight to behold.
I'm just glad I got to witness the greatness. Dude was unbelievable in the 90s.
Roy jones jr owned the 90’s no one could beat him during that time.
@@Djuane He was unreal.
Truuuuuuu. There was no running or ducking. This guy ran thru weight classes not just leagues.
And he didn't without even trying. The real TBE and P4P 🐐
Prime RJJ was simply inhuman, a thing straight out of an anime/superhero movie.
Imho TBE, he was simply unbeatable.
When he jumped down from HW his body was too compromised by the fact that he went up, he just wasn't himy anymore.
But up until that point, there was only one thing, and it was total domination.
Tarver beat roy jones...but he didn't beat ROY JONES. we know what that means
@@therealbs2000 tarver seriously believes he beat roy at his peak to this day which is sad. He was like superman in his prime. Unrivaled, speed and power was unmatched. The last time we seen prime roy jones jr was against ruiz. He should have retired after winning his belts backs otherwise it was all for nothing. 50-0 the real TBE
RJJ was crazy inside the ring. He was Mr. Entertainment. If you were a paying fan, u will have your money’s worth.
So pissed i wasnt old enough to watch this man in his prime 😫 😭
This is what you call poetry in motion.
Thank you. One of most ruthless boxers to ever put on gloves.
Edit: OGs know this is a remake.
An upgrade 2be more precise . 🎯✊💯
No doubt
With me, the GOAT. An artist boxer.
the jump in left hook and his straight right was perfection
His ego didn’t let him quit but still one of my favorite goats and thank you for this goat joe 🙌🏼
Pure greatness! 100% reason to always remember the name.
In terms of individual brilliance, nobody comes close to Roy. Even with the losses, this man needs to be considered in the same manner as the greats if not the greatest... He was a blown up middle weight that became heavy weight champ of the world. That's extraordinary
Not only was his speed amazing , the power and timing and footwork with the faints is just a thing of beauty. He made it look so easy . but his style of fighting was not easy to duplicate , just pure natural god given talents with hours of working on his craft to get better. When you love boxing so much , it's hard to pick a favorite. But 100% Roy is on my top 10 list of all time greats !
Roy is my favorite fighter of all time. Thanks for creating this for him and his legacy!
Joseph Vincent is hands down the best at what he does. No other RUclipsr even comes close to the masterpieces produced. Absolutely fantastic!!!
May I introduced you too Motevidia ,Office Hancho?
Elite fight club
This dude barely says anything in his vids lmao. He basically just takes video clips and says one sentence every 10 minutes and calls it a documentary.
Barely any narration or information at all.
Look at how he torques his hips when he throws left hook. That’s where the power comes from. 💯💪🏽
As 90s kid I can testify that the prime RRJr. was a demigod of boxing.
I was about 20 at that time so I saw alot of Leonard too. The way I see it is there was only a few boxers that have a certain level of quickness and reflexes...I mean cat-like. There was Roy, Leonard, Floyd, Ali, Whitaker and even Tyson. I guess Manny, Naseem and from what I seen from video, Robinson had that too. All the other guys like Hearns, Hagler, B-hop, De la hoya, Mosley, Trinidad and some others were real close but not quite that quick. Out of that group only Naseem is not seen as a great I think. lol, I forgot about Toney before he got fat. Matter fact he was in terrible shape for the Jones fight compared to what he was. I bet yall didn't know that fight night champions started all the way from Toney's EA sports boxing. Yall don't understand that dude was untouchable at one time like Floyd was.
Man I've been watching boxing for nearly 3 decades and you're showing clips either I haven't seen before or thought was already lost because of how old they are. Great work man.
Most talented boxer ever
You can raise a boxer, but you cannot raise natural, hungry, and elite fighters like the amazing Roy Jones Jr.
My favorite boxer of all time. Loved watching him box. Just magic.
Joe you are the absolute best, never stoo what you're doing.
Love from Germany
Roy Jones Jr. will always be the GOAT in my heart. This documentary made me sad, but it was great! Thanks and Great Job!
I'm with you bro💯!!!
Just watched it for a 3rd time. Best fighter I’ve ever seen. Great video guys 🔥
Roy Jones, the best ever!🙌🏾
Honestly the only videos I ever like without watching, the calibre, standard, effort and quality in everything you release is absolutely insane man.
Please don't ever stop.
Jones and Tyson were the best I ever saw. Even after goin back and watching Ali fights. Nothing like those 2
Pretty Boy Floyd too.
@@KelzKelz nah, his matches aren't exciting at all
@@Kevin-ol7gj You dont think Floyds fights are good? I mean to each his own but that dude does the same stuff as RJ. Hes just smaller so not many power hits that you see from the bigger dudes. Def cant hate on Floyd sure he seems douche af but dude has massive skill.
Ali was doing this against much tougher (and in the case of George Foreman, more defensively sound) opponents.
@@Kevin-ol7gj young Floyd was a spectacle
Bro, thank you so much for this RUclips channel. You know a lot of knowledge and I respect everything that you post. This is by far one of my favorite youtube channels ever. Thank you !!❤🙏🏼
Jones in his prime was one of the true greats ...he was so good that he didn't even really need to work on his fundamentals...he based his style on watching rooster fight .
If you look at Hopkins ( who put up a pretty decent attempt against Roy in his prime but he wasn't in Roy's class ) he's a classic case of "what is not born is made " and that's why he was able to keep on fighting well into his 40s whereas Roy faded quickly ...his punch resistance and I also think his legs ...but having said that Roy was THE most exciting fighter that I ever watched ...he was a fucking freak.
The Olympics is a joke ...
I cant think of any fighter that could have stopped him in his prime even going back 100 years. P4p one of the best ever.
I lost count of how many times i bursted into laughter after each knockdown. Unbelievable power and amazing speed/reflexes don't do this man justice. WOW!
Yeah me also.. @1:24 mf let me up!! 😂
This guy would have destroyed canelo easily
The perfect timing was perfect timing lol.
There was a time when you thought he could never be beat. In his prime no one had that combination of speed, power and elusiveness. It was amazing that he was able to keep his power as he moved up all those weight classes. He was something to see.
Amazing that he kept his speed after moving up, you mean. To gain the weight & not lose the speed is incredible.
He couldnt be beat in his prime. Hes the only fighter in boxing history i believe was above everyone else
I know what you mean though. I didn’t think about it in my first reply, but you’re right that it’s weird that he didn’t lose his power when he went back down, too. I guess it was the way I read it the first time 🤷🏻♂️
@@Djuane Best I have ever saw in my 50+ years watching boxing and boxing myself. His natural gifts were a step above everyones.
My favorite growing up. I wanted to box just like him. Thank you for this, people should never forget the dominance and brilliance of Roy Jones Jr. Greatest boxer I ever saw.
Roy was a phenomenon
Some people just won’t get how god this guy was in the ring. Definitely the best ever
I agree
Monzon, & Robinson ? ?
His decline happened when he was 35, for a fighter who depends on them you just drop off around that age. Seen it in Australian rugby league (NRL), seen it in cricket. Seen it heaps in MMA. Roy is the poster child for it because his reflexes were so much better than everyone else's, the man was a genetic freak. He got me ifrom being a casual fight fan to a lover of boxing, then MMA. My favourite fighter by a country mile, will always be a Roy fan, he's my vote for goat.
True, but Glover Texeira won the LHW title, I think he is 44 I believe. He is definitely an outlier, this doesn't happen often at all, but just pointing out that some people can last longer than others. But it's not usually a good idea to fight past that point even if you CAN still fight. It would be better for your brain and body to retire, at least before you actually get seriously hurt, or make the CTE worse than it has to be.
it was less age, and more from weight. age decline is slow, he declined rapidly after hw
@@KenMasters-lh8tk yeah, you dont suddenly turn 35 and your body instantly falls apart that day, granted it doesnt recover as fast as it would if you was younger, but if you have bad lifestyle habits and a bunch of injuries, thats when it starts catching up to you quick imao, usually when people are still at a elite level in their late 30's 40's its because they took care of themselves, and they avoided any major injuries up to that point.
@@ActionJackson669glover texeria didn’t depend on speed and reflexes at 44 Roy depended on it so when his speed went after dropping back down to 175 his fundamentals were gone
