RJJ vs Tarver III
Man r u Guys Excited! I sure am ....I fear for Jones when he was Knockd out by Tarver when the met last time RJJ invincibility "Mr. Unknockoutable Mr. UnTouchable n still..." that was shattered. I couldnt believe what I had just seen, the way he fell to the canvas was unreal. For a whole week I thought about that knock out I hated Tarver. But then reality sunk and I give credit where credit is due. Tarver believed in himself, he was the ONLY man till that pt. that believed he could beat RJJ. I think a lot of RJJ previous opponents were weak n had lost the fight even b4 entering the ring. Not to take any credit from Roy.
WHats ur CALL I wanna hear ur Pick? I wanna hear how u see the fight going down.
Will RJJ Resurrect from back to back KO losses or will Tarver put Roy into retirement.

It is not about talking smack, sister. It was about Roy's arrogance. Talking smack has nothing to do with one's arrogance. He wanted Tarver to attack, but Tarver was smart by being even more patient than Roy. People are saying Roy talks sh!t, which baffles me. The man deserves to talk smack since he proved hims self by destroying his first 50 opponents.
What bothered me was him starring in rap videos, hanging with the wrong crowd, and disappearing humbleness.
"Nofobsplz," so what about the great Ali? He was the ultimate trash talker, but he had the skills to back it up. What about Bernard "The Executioner" Hopkins? The man threw rice and beans at Felix Trinidad, and still ended up beating Felix like a little child.
Remember Tarver talking trash against Johnson? Yes, he lost the first time around to Johnson.
Let me take this to a different sport: Basketball is the ultimate trash talk sport. MJ, Bird, and Larry were the ultimate talkers, but their games backed everything up, as well as their rings.
Roy won titles in 4-different weight classes, and that cannot be erased. As for Tarver, I give him props, but this was just the case of "every dog has his day."

Roy is like 911 Twin Turbo, while Tarver is like an M3. The M3 is nice, but the 911 Twin Turbo is far superior in every aspect.
G. Johnson is like a Mustang GT, but that is another story in itself.

Say what "he talks alotta smack n then can't back it up..." girl are u talkin about Roy Jones Junior. FYI Roy has backed what he said he almost every time and had every right to be as cocky as he was! Thats Y he was Mr. Unstoppable Mr. UnTouchable!!!! Man no one could even win a round againts the man let alone even dream about winning a fight. So dont base him off the last 3 fights u Ever saw of him, either that or u got short term memory or what!
N for Z man intro check the Zman intro topic.
Roy Jones was really upset he won a close fight Jones Tarver I. He said he was gonna bring out his alter ego RJJ that we saw in the second Griffin fight. Just accept it Tarver has Roys number. N woulda given Roy hell even at his peak. Not to take nuthin away from Jones but say Tarver didnt beat Roy n Roy beat Roy. Cuz Tarver moved a mountain.

I felt like taking a flight to Florida and jumping in the ring against Tarver, but then realized I would be on stretcher in a matter of a second. I guess every dog has his day.

N Roy was never an offensive fighter. He was more of a counter puncher that would break u down. N when u broke he would go on the offense. He had a low work rate...He couldnt keep with Jhonsons work rate and Johnson has a tight defense...we'll ofcourse RJJ also knew we wasnt invincible so fear addded to it too
N u're absolutely right damn ,,,RJJ was content he survived full 12 rounds, definately Roy should hang it up!
We will miss you Roy. You are still one of the best ever.
Roy was simply that good. Do you know what the problem was? Roy got too cocky and thought the competition would never match up to his skills. When Roy got knocked down by Tarver, he became a defensive fighter, which deviates from his style significantly. Roy lost to Johnson because he was too defensive minded in the fight. He was not offensive by any means.
When Roy was not a rapper, he was humble and would have destroyed opponents like Tarver or Johnson. Once again, what destroyed him was his fear of being knocked out again, and his arrogance.
He should hang them up since it is like watching the Wizards' Michael Jordan play instead of the Chicago Bulls' Jordan. Then again, we can never take away the man's accomplishment, which speaks millions on what a skilled fighter he "was."
Anyways, it is just my opinion, so feel free to disagree.

After Jones - Tarver t was the first time people questioned Jone's invincibility. N Tarver beat him the next time with a perfectly timed punch...i saw it over n over again cuz I never imagined RJJ going down like that. N then after that there was the RJJ vs. Glen Johnson fight where Jhonson virtually dominated the fight...till he KOed Jones.
But man Jones didnt take any tunes up ...he is a true champ.
