Roy is the best pound for pound of all time. You could say Mayweather or Ray Robinson and I wouldn't necessarily call you out, but in my opinion it's Roy.
The whole p4p debate is confusing there really isn’t any criteria. But still Roy in his prime might have been the most unstoppable force in the history of boxing. I think he would beat Ray Robinson and all of the 4 kings.
There is a lot you can learn from a rooster. I grew up with my dad and grandfather being cock fighters. Confidence, price, and gracefulness. Hispanic heritage can teach a lot even from a simple rooster. It’s a way of life.
@Dacia Ramirez I think so too. I just think it would be dope because Hagler never gets discouraged. So we'd really get to see Roy unload his full offense. Hagler wasn't too hard to hit but I think you are 100% correct. Hand speed and elite boxing skills are what you need to beat Hagler and roy had those in spades haha plus I think roy is one of the most underrated power punchers I'm history. When he sat down on his shots they were thunderous. U remember when he hit the man behind the ear and he went into almost a seizure? Ha scary stuff
@@johndamper2934 ya ur right roy would've really got to unleash the whole skill set, Hagler had such a hard head and jaw and heart of a lion he just never stopped. Can u imagine if roy was a heavyweight in his prime and got to fight Ali?
My favorite fighter to watch. Roy Jones Jr is the only fighter that I have seen that genuinely loved fighting. You could tell that he had fun every moment in the ring. Just so much fun to watch.
when my dad was in the navy , we lived in pensicola florida for like 4 or so years. and my dad would play basketball alot during these years because he could hoop. my dad is white, and not that its a big deal but he would play alot of pick up games and people wherever my dad would play at definitely noticed this was a bad white dude. and i mean bad as in good . my dad could dunk , shoot, call plays, all that but besides that… one day a group of people pull up to the pensicola basketball courts im not sure of the exact name of the basketball court . and it was roy jones jr with all his friends . my family was telling me all this. keep in mind im a kid but theres just some things youll never forget. alot of people showed up cause of roy jones. this wss in the 90s. so he was in his prime and had all the attention. so they all played pick up games. no television ,no bullshit, just some pick up games. my dad was matched up against roy and gave him a hell of a run for his money . my dad said he would always be talkin shit haha but like competitively . he was always a competitor and was a decent basketball player as well . anyways long story short roy jones and my dad got to chattin and ended up being cool with one another off the court as well . introduced himself to me and my mother while at the pickupgames. my dad and roy got to chatting and my dad set up a basketball game for the navy base in pensicola florida and roy jones jr . like a charity basketball game . music , food , community. just a all around good time . i keep telling my dad to this day , “ dad since yall were so cool with one another you shouldve got his damn phone number so yall couldve met up again “. my dad had mentioned that roy said “ thanks again don (dads name) if you ever need something orc anything man hmu and get in touch with me “ . i still give my dad shit to this day for not following up on that offer smh . anyways i got to meet roy jones jr when i was little but hey thats badass .
4:02 and thats what floyd meant when he said do you think he works as hard as he does to say theirs another fighter whos better than me and people gave him alot for saying hes better than Ali
A man and his faith is his own business, I doubt Roy wants to discuss his faith with anyone because it doesn't matter. It's between him and God. Why would Joe stop their conversation about his boxing to ask him about god? They are talking about boxing. To say that Joe hates on Christianity any chance he gets is just nonsense.
I love Robinson, but he lost his Middleweight Title 4 times to (Randy Turpin, Gene Fullmer, Carmen Basilio, Paul Pender) All due respect to them but imho Prime Roy Jones Jr. would have beat the breaks off all of those guys every time.
@@boogidwnej179 Roy has said on numerous occasions that Salvador Sanchez, a Mexican is one of his idols and one of the greatest boxers ever if not the greatest. He speak highly of Chavez and Mexican fighters in general so he gets a lot of love from Mexicans
Ive always said...Roy Jones in my opinion was the best boxer to grace the ring. He's like the Michael Jordan of boxing. I think he went past his prime around the time he was moving up and down in weight. If he didn't do that he would have had an undefeated record.
I got privlage of meeting Jr. At sunset La. At a rooster show years ago..he had just won the heavy weight belt. Such a true humble man..God Givin Talent!! And alot of work
@@jasperpaululep4927 nope. Best ones are in Mexico. 1inch knife only the true gamefowl cut with that, in Philippines you use a huge knife, any rooster even a barn one can cut with that machete
mars aspects his 1st house: courageous, hard working, energetic, initiator of something productive and will rise in life through self efforts only. Mars aspect 1st house gives tremendous self belief/self loving nature.
All professional fighters are on juice. I’ve seen it at state level so if low level competition is always caught cheating (in state exams) it’s disingenuous to believe the champions aren’t. Literally margarito had concrete in his gloves. The professional world is a lot crazier than it seems.

I'll go with pac. Still roy is the most physically talented fighter of all time
@@deadarmd pac beat a lot of fighters at catch weight so to me that eliminates him
Roy was juiced to the gills
Roy is the best of all time
Roy knows the fight game , all of it, Humans ,and roosters . He knows whats up. 👍

Idc what anybody says
Roy Jones Jr > Floyd
Vinny Paz threw over 100 punches in one round and ZERO landed on Roy
Dodge ball and chit 🕺
Alot of people dont know this but vinny paz beat roberto duran a year prior to fighting roy jones jr. he was past his prime in the 90’s though.
@@Djuane still have to give him props
@@Djuane
I forgot Duran was still fighting even in the 90’s
No one in history beats 1993-1995 Roy Jones Jr. My dad won so much money off that man lol.
Imagine Hagler vs Jones jr at middleweight haha that would in my opinion the best fight ever.
@@johndamper2934 would've been a great fight but jones would've mopped him up. Just 2 fast kinda like when Leonard fought hagler

still ain't got no triceps though
That Rooster analogy was Some Snake in the eagles shadow shit.
Lol
I don’t think there’s ever been a more dominant fighter than Roy he rarely ever lost a round or didn’t have control of it
Ive never seen anyone more dominate than roy jones jr or mike tyson in there prime
4:02 and thats what floyd meant when he said do you think he works as hard as he does to say theirs another fighter whos better than me and people gave him alot for saying hes better than Ali
the dip before the hook, gets them every time. my favourite boxer ever.
I always notice that Joe Rogan tries to change the topic when Roy Jones talks about God.
Joe is ex Catholic and seriously hates on Christianity any chance he gets unless its a religious guy who he respects.
A man and his faith is his own business, I doubt Roy wants to discuss his faith with anyone because it doesn't matter. It's between him and God.
Why would Joe stop their conversation about his boxing to ask him about god? They are talking about boxing. To say that Joe hates on Christianity any chance he gets is just nonsense.

Farm strength and freak athletism = RJJ
Went to Roy’s house when I was a kid. He still had Roosters all over. Remember as a kid hometown of Pensacola would shut down for Roy fights.
He hasn't changed
Roy Jones and ray Robinson is the best pound for pound of all time

Roy was God given reflex fighter. Power n speed best at super middleweight
.. lead hook .. AJ was one better - a lead uppercut..

My favorite fight when he fought james toney.
1:10 adrien broner went a full round without landing a single punch and won that round XD
Roy Jones Jr was just so fucking skilled. One of the most purely talented fighters ever.
Much respect!!!since I’m a rooster fighter since I was 10 yrs of age. Only in Mexico tho. Best rooster are bread in USA FYI.
But best cockfighters are from my hometown Philippines,, peace

Imagining this killer studying roosters is crazy
The greatest of all time in his prime YALL MUST OF FORGOT HAHAHAH I fuckin love roy I hope I get to meet him one day
What's with Roy's left bicep?
Prime Roy was amazing. I wish he never came down from HW. He was never the same after that.
Louisiana fighting roosters I met him
Like a true martial artist taking inspiration from the movements of an animal!
At 2:95 he still got insane speed
His offense WAS his defense...
Roy Jones ist der beste 👍
Thanks for raising me Roy. Your boy done good
Roy and Izzy have a similar vibe
"Izzy" Israel Adesanya.
Not at all

Had alot of respect for rjj but he is a juicer
