1) So you are admitting Roy did not have a great jab cool.
No, he never did. Neither does Floyd. I guess he doesn't utilize technical skills either?

2) Floyd pulls back to get out of range and counter his defense involves rolling and angles you can't compare that to Roy's defense at all.
Uhh Roy pulled back to get out of range too. Why else would anyone even do that?

3)I should be crucified for saying Roy can't fight on the inside? Why did many people feel Tarver beat him in the first fight? What did Tarver do in that first fight? Fight on the inside. When Glen Johnson ko'd him where exactly were they fighting? On the inside. Roy was able to hide his inability to fight on the inside because he was so much faster than everyone he didn't have to. Whereas the more technically sound fighters I mentioned earlier could do both.
Look, you're wrong. Roy Jones...even at 40...has excellent in-fighting skills. He has always had excellent in-fighting skills. Just stop. What Tarver did in the first fight was step in fire combos downstairs and immediately step away. He never engaged with Jones on the inside for a period of time, and smartly so. Jones even washed up was still a beast on the inside:

4)If you read my post correctly I said Roy got by on his speed and athleticism I did not say he had no skill. You said his style was rooted in the technical aspects of the sport and I gave you the reasons why they were not. If his fundamentals were better I believe he would have been able to do better at the tail end of his career and not get ko'd by bums in Kazafukkestan.
And what I said was that most fighters get beat past 35, technical skill or not. Are you implying that Ray Robinson had no skill? Ray Leonard? They were both finished by 36.
You have yet to answer what Roy's defense consisted of once his reflexes were gone
The same thing that happens to most fighters - Father Time.

I did. I ordered that fight & told my boy Roy shouldn't fight him again cause that first fight was close. Weight + age is why Roy lost. Dude had 50 fights under his belt.
Me too. He had slowed down a lot over the past 2-3 years. I figured Tarver had the remedy.
