I see a lot of people talking shit about Roy shadowboxing in this video. Really? You think you can teach Roy Jones Jr something about shadowboxing? He's not fully extending his punches because that's not what he's doing it for. He's visualizing an opponent in front of him and working on positioning, movement and specific mini scenarios in his head like countering and drawing an opponent out. You can see when he's throwing 1-1-2 and then pulling straight back after the right hand. Then you see him switch it up by pulling back and rolling away to the side to change up the rhythm. If we were to put the workload in percentages, his body is working on 30% and his mind is on 70%. That's why he doesn't bother to follow through with the punches and raise up the heart rate - he's upgrading his software, rather than his hardware. Lastly, Roy is close to 50 years old. OF COURSE he's gonna slow down and at that age you need to slowly warm the body up before you do anything at 100%. All I'm saying is, let's not forget who we're talking about and appreciate a legend: Roy Jones freaking JR knows how to box. Y'all musta forgot.
The Hitman Sure and different fighters train differently. 8 years ago people were laughing at how Floyd Mayweather hits pads, saying that he was playing paddy cake. But that's a similar case, what works for you, works for you and not anyone else. I just think it's silly that people are laughing at how a P4P legend trains. Roy Jones forgot more about boxing than any of these trolls will ever know.
Romas Lebionka Well said man, honestly it's like when someone says something so dumb you don't know how to respond, it's very common in these comment sections
Romas Lebionka bro fuck the causals they know nothing
You would only be hyper extending your arms anyway if there's not a head or body to absorb the blow... but you are right as far as the mental aspect 100%... there's no need to fully extended.
well said
Favorite boxer of all time, never seen someone with so much power and speed combined before. He's clearly much older here but can still crack.
Plague Doc he would beat the fuck outta mayweather no doubt.
two complete different weights, not even relevant.
He can still crack his brain lol
Orlando Castillo irrelevant bum
You never seen mike Tyson?
Iron Mike and Roy Jones Jr. my two favorite boxers of all time.
councilmandoug808 Roy jones jr and mayweather jr
Donald Trump lol
You must be happy right about now!
Seyahat T facts
And they’re going to fight on Sept!
"Can't be touched
Can't be stopped
Can't be moved
Can't be rocked
Can't be shook
We hot
When will you niggaz learn!"
Fuck yeah one of the sports most exciting/entertaining boxer show some respect you younglings, do your thing champ.
Boxers always have the fight instinct in them even after they retire, it’s great to see Roy Jones back at what he loves.
forever a Legend
The acronym “G.O.A.T” is usually thrown around to easily these days, but in the Case of Roy GOAT doesn’t do him justice..He’s Easily one of the top Five boxers who ever lived, no matter the weight class..
I know you're trying to give Roy respect but your comment doesn't really make any sense lol
ohtebowah, only to someone who wasn’t watching boxing Religiously from 1980 through 2018 does my comment not make any sense..
You have absolutely zero clue how overwhelmingly amazing Roy was for 12yrs Straight. He’s by far the greatest Middleweight of all time, & he’s without a doubt a top 5 pound for pound boxer who has ever lived.
If you don’t understand that, then stop wasting time replying to me, take the time to utilize TH-cam, go on a journey of discovery, & go watch the first 30 fights of Roy’s career, then I double fukin dare you to be 100% completely honest with yourself, & try, TRY to name 5 other boxers from any era that were greater than Roy..good luck
Force Times Distance Equals ? Torque lmao i agree with you in that respect I've never ever seen any boxer like Roy in his prime. Your comment still doesn't make sense however. You say the term GOAT doesn't do him justice. But then you go on to say hes one of the top 5 of all time ("top 5" in bold). Both statements can't be true. Think it through buddy
ohtebowah, Stop nitpicking lil fella. It’s called hyperbole. Don’t read so much into it, just hit like, say agreed, then move on
Force Times Distance Equals ? Torque wrong
Best lead hook to ever exist
Underrated comment
Frazier
This man was the best fighter that ever lived ... and I mean EVER.... unmatched speed timing and god given ability , there wasn't a man alive that could beat him in his prime ...
you can tell hes working and cardio and fluidity.... most important part is when he doesnt like his footwork or motion, he acts like he got it and resets....that's because he is doing one of the most important things in shadowboxing....Visualizing. In his head he fighting somebody! cool stuff.
Roy looking good for his age.
Legend, best of luck in your retirement Roy, thanks for entertaining us for so many years..
My favorite boxer ever. Thank God for roy jones jr and he's dope on the Mic. Can't be touched
I could watch Roy shadow box all day. Just the sweetest to ever do it.
I wish I watched boxing during Roy Jones Jrs reign, I’ve watched his fights but I’d loved to been there for the hype and the awe. Greatest boxer imo
Roy Jones is a master !!!🥋🙏😌
Legend
One of my favorite boxers of all time #respect
all time fav
Still 1 of my favorites of all time tho
Roy seems so happy training and fighting. It must feel like reuniting with a long lost family member. Just alive! Energized! and inspired!
That was great.
What a relaxing moment to see him☁☁
feed him to Lord Artem
I would love to see a God slaughter a Lord.
Still my boy for life I remember him being unstoppable in his heyday 💪🏿
20th century legend and beyond!
Legend!
Legendary Roy Jones Jr
A bit slower but His angles are still crispy
Any commenters dissing this guy would not step in ring with him lol
Roy would destroy 90% of these commenters. These mostly MMA fanboys would have their head handed to them in a boxing match where you are limited to hands only. BUT they want to give Roy Jones Jr shadow boxing advice.......LOL!
@Marcus Reed
SUUUUUUUUURE "Marcus"......suuuuuuuuure
So, why aren't there multiple videos of YOUR achievments? Easy to be a keyboard warrior and run your mouth.....chump. Now go make something of your life and stop trying to be a legend in your own mind, because to the rest of us you are just a chump with these silly statements.
Roy’s still sharp for his age
The fucking man!!!! Love this guy! Whoooop!! My mans getting old but he did what he did when he was younger! GOAT!!!
He looks in great for his age definitely one of the greatest boxers of all time fair play to him still fighting
The champ still is and always will be a beast.
In this footage he was still moving so good fans could of seen B hop and roy fight again and put on a good show
The most Creative boxer ever.... If only we could see what he sees in this moment....
Massive Respect to the Man moving well and as sharp as many 30 yr olds!

One of the best to ever done it.
This was the real G.O.A.T when he was in his prime.
Love that shirt

One of my favorite fighters ever but it’s sad to see him still boxing
evading the counters like he was really fighting looks class.
Age sucks. I am the same age and used to box when I was younger and I know exactly how he must feel. Good vid of a legend!
One of the best to ever do it.
he still can do it
and he does it like a champ still
he not be past his prime by decade or two
but he's still a respectful beast
Nothing he does could diminish his legacy in my eyes. Arguably the best boxer of all time

*intro plays**
In his prime he was untouchable
The real GOAT.
To this day I'm still pissed off at the referee in his fight with Lebedev.
as a man that boxed at a pro level that is scary still
A gust of wind and he does the chicken dance. Close all the windows before he starts wobbling.
He is still so dam fast even in his 40’s......
Mac
Jones would be a scary opponent for anyone in the UFC in his weight class today.
People remember Roy for the flash, but he was one of the most technically sound boxers in modern boxing. The man could do it all.
Imagine if Roy and tyson had a dream match
I'd pay to see him go against Tyson in the present.
I’m 28 years old, I’m fit, healthy and I’ve been training and competing in Muay Thai with a little boxing since 2007. And I STILL wouldn’t fight this man.
Fuck that.
Seems he vividly visualize opponent ..
Hands so fast people here can't even see him extend those arms lol
Why?
One of the Goats in his prime, really wish he would hang them up and call it a day, he has no reason to keep fighting anymore.
Jesus Christ, old Roy Jones can crack.
Roy needs to come read this comment section, he would learn new things for his game. Theirs so many legit top class trainers up in this bitch, he would be spoilt for choice.
Roy JONES vs Maywheather in UFC who would b down 2watch it
Woooh that's a bad dude!
Looking good for the 8th! P4P great and future hall of famer RJJ!
It would be cool if the UFC lands an athlete like this. The skills are evolving quickly, but the limited tiers and talent pool are lacking, which means less of the weak are weeded out. Plus the amount money the lower class fighters get, a truly elite gifted athlete with choices will not pick MMA or boxing for that matter.
My G.O.A.T boxer!
Roy is still my favorite boxer of all time but he should definitely pop a squat somewhere and enjoy his family.. Love you Roy! 👊
That's it Champ body head !!!
Sup it's Vito
he looks heavyweight
Roy Jones wasn't technically sound, he was just athletic
Thats some bs
Don't even think about it
Errol spence looks like the next roy jones
