oh really? A guy that managed to beat a heavyweight titlist would beat a dude that started out as a super featherweight? Word?

I think he is talking about fighting styles and overall skill besides weight. Which would be true. Only a Boxer with Roy Jones Jr. hands speed, accuracy, and power could get through Floyd Mayweather defense. They both are my favorite Boxers of all time, but Floyd Mayweather skills and atyle wouldn't hold up against RJJR skills and style regargless weight.

Roy Jones was just a different animal then anyone who ever boxed.

shyt, Roy Jones was so arrogant that he used to put up his whole undisputed light heavyweight belts up for a title match. shyt was crazy.

This is how you swag out Larry Merchant bytchass. RJJR swag>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Who is this Danny Garcia mug and why do i get the feeling his dad molested him as a child?

"we are ONE"

Nah, a really good pressure fighter could get to Floyd. There just aren't that many guys in the game nowadays that have the heart+stamina+willpower+infighting technique to get at Floyd.

Roy was really talented probably one of the 20 most physically talented fighters ever no doubt. Roids helped, but its whatever.

Roy decimated Griffin after that bullshyt DQ loss. Dude actually thought he was in Roy's class and was feeling himself for a minute.

I just wish Roy had retired after winning the heavyweight title instead of fukking up his legacy by getting beat up by dudes who couldn't have touched him in his prime.

as fukked up as it was roy did deserve the DQ...he hit that dude with 2 clean as fukk shots when montell took a knee..but even before he was giving roy was some trouble though

you know its wild how at one brief time montell griffin was the number one guy at 175...he is the only one to hold victories over prime versions of james toney and roy jones as controversial as they were...plus he was undefeated

Antonio Margarito Retires From Boxing, Arum

Earlier this week, former champions Winky Wright and "Sugar" Shane Mosley, both 40-years-old, announced their retirements from boxing. Earlier today, former welterweight champion Antonio Margarito, 34, joined the pack and revealed that he plans to walk away from the ring.

Margarito (38-8, 27KOs) has never been the same after taking a twelve round beating from Manny Pacquiao in the fall of 2010. During the action, he suffered a broken orbital bone and underwent several surgical procedures to correct the damage to his right eye.

There were numerous hurdles to get him medically approved to face Miguel Cotto in a rematch last December at Madison Square Garden in New York. Within a few rounds, the right eye began to swell at a rapid pace and the ringside physician eventally stopped the fight because of the eye in the tenth round.

Margarito will always be regarded as a tough competitor, but there will always be controversy when experts discuss his legacy because of the handwraps incident prior to his 2009 TKO loss to Shane Mosley in California. Prior to the fight, inserts containing a plaster-like substance were discovered in his wraps. The California State Atheltic Commission would later revoke his license for one year.

"He gave us a heads up last week. He said his body was breaking down. We certainly encouraged him to retire. We are gratified for all that we could do for him. We've made him financially secure. We fought like hell for him in order to do so. I'm really proud of what we all did at Top Rank and we wish Tony the best of luck for the rest of his life," Arum said.

"He was a fighter who never quit. He gave everything in every fight. He was not the most talented guy in the world, but certainly one of the most toughest."

Dear Family, Friends, and Fans,

After twenty-two years of full dedication to the profession I love, I have made the decision to announce my retirement from boxing. After much thought and extended conversations with my family and team, we have all agreed that the time to hang up my gloves and begin a new chapter in life has arrived.
I always told my family and team that I would walk away from boxing when I felt I could no longer compete at the level I believed I needed to be, in order to be successful. Although the passion and drive are still there, I have to accept that my time to walk away has arrived.

I want to take this opportunity to thank Michelle and my family for their support, encouragement, and most of all, their love. Not only did they give me their unconditional love and support during the good times, their love and support grew larger during the times that I was at my lowest. I also want to thank my team, Sergio Diaz Jr and Francisco Espinosa. They are not only my management, they are my family. For sixteen years, they guided my career and did what was best for me. To my trainers, without your drive and motivation, I would not have had the success. You were an integral part of my career. I thank you for your dedication. I want to thank my promoters, Bob Arum, Todd duBoef, and everyone at Top Rank. I am proud to say that I began and ended my career with a great promotional company. As a non privileged child, I had dreams. I dreamt of giving my family a better life. I dreamt of owning a car, owning a home, traveling the world, and helping others in need. Bob, I thank you for helping me fulfill those dreams. Finally, I want to thank all of my fans for their love and loyal support. Without you, there would be no Antonio Margarito.

I leave the cuts, bruises, and sweat, but I’m not leaving the sport. I will continue in the sport that gave me so much, Now, however, it is time for me to give back to the sport.
