IMPOSSIBLE SPEED - Roy Jones Jr. (Captain Hook) 

Watch Roy Jones Jr: Pound for Pound and make it a clean 45

I started with Big George. Just typed in his name and watched all the videos that seemed worth it. I'd do the same with Roy like I'm about to. Still wish he hadn't cuddled iron Mike though

Do a documentary about Prince Naseem Hamed or Amir Khan

And also do a documentary about Joe Fraizer

Plz spread these messages so he actually does this

Right just show all his fights and everything that went on in the background

Lol right

So you sell it to Netflix and they automatically make seasons? I don't think so. I know you mean well but you're not too bright. Lol

@@noillcallyou don't forget the dressing room, just for you. 😚

Fuck Netflix.

no

That's awesome, yeah he seems like a good dude too in life. About a year ago on a different boxing video Roy was in with a few others, I called him the best pound 4 pound boxer ever, and someone told me I was crazy and didn't know anything about boxing (couldn't argue much with him there but). After just finishing this I thought back to that person's comment and said you know, they might have been right. I didnt realize how many weight classes Roy fought in over his career. That is absolutely bananas to me 🤷🏾‍♂️. To even have the cahones to even think about doing that (as well as having short times between fights gaining or dropping huge steps in weight) but to go ahead and then do that, having belts in multiple weight classes 🤯. I also never knew he didn't really use the jab at all hardly ever really and started with a crushing left hook and was just out there throwing bombs with precision, quick as lighting, and unhumanlike reflexes that helped him on both outfielder offense and defense. I hope he is doing well these days, proud of himself, and please thank him for all of the great fights over the years!

@@sevenn7pure the only middleweight in history that moved up to heavyweight and won the championship.

@@AUDIOANDWHIPS2 Yeah that is amazing. People don't realize how tough it is in any pro fighting arena to deal with weight. Some guys have a REALLY tough time even cutting a couple pounds (especially at the tail end of training when they already have been cutting) but to move weight classes is just unheard of. And to bounce back and forth which had to be really tough mentally, but TAXING on his body. My guess is that he regrets the weight class jumps in the latter part of his career but only he would know. He has quick hands, powerful punches, and some dexterity like no other. How in the world do you go from sacrificing weight and power, to getting stronger but losing quickness, vice versa, up, down, left, and right and expect to be the same fighter? It's physically impossible 🤷🏾‍♂️.

@@AUDIOANDWHIPS2 not true bob fizzinons won middle heavyweight and light heavy there’s others to yes the first to do it in like 80 years or something so extremely incredible just not the only one

I would still go with Sugar Ray Robinson but Roy is definitely in the Top 5 of all time.

Your eyes don't lie...he used ped's.

Yet people think hes not in the top 10 greatest of all time.

He’s the GOAT period can’t tell me nothing lol

@@GYMJAX Jones Jr Is Indeed The Greatest Light Heavyweight Boxing🥊 Champion🏆 Of All Time Thanks To You & KingSuperior. 👑🐐

He is the best fighter I have seen

factts. pound for poound best boxer ever.

@Bruce Wayne lol. Good point.

Dude was peak talent. I have never seen someone peak as he was. He made great talented fighters look average.

Close second to Robinson

Manny!!!

@@monkeydog8681 absolutley. When he was at his peak, his skill level and talent and ability was never matched or duplicated, when he was at his prime. The only fighter who was ever able to duplicate, and maybe even surpass Roy is the Boston fighter Joe Calzaghe. He actually beat Roy Jones and made him look average. Hats off to Joe as well. He was just as sick as Roy if not better. He retired undefeated if I remember correctly. Still Roy's skill and ability was one of the best ever.

why even go there? useless speculation

He just didn't make smart investments (something Floyd Mayweather would say 😁)

@@bigrich0926 lol 😆😂facts

His resume ain’t fw Floyd not even close

If Roy would of retired after winning heavyweight title. He would of been most likely the goat. Or at least top 3 all time. He was the best i ever seen. He just fought a little too long past his prime

I see Roy's career in two stages ...the first stage is what I judge him by ...in his prime ....

Hard to say.... i think Pacquiao, Jones and GGG share the throne until now. ( cassius as superchamp)

@@Heuteja GGG GFOH Are you drunk ?

@@Heuteja triple g is not on their level at all

i loved RJJ up until i found out he got caught using steroids its a well kept secret so it tarnishes his legacy for me how often did he use or how good was he reaky without steroids if you dont belive me google was RJJ ever caught using steroids it tells you all about i originally foumd out thru a diifetrent source some one in boxing they even named the drug he was caught with in his system all they did was move the fight to a different state with no testing

What for real...wow..but u redeemed yourself lol

Go watch sugar ray

@@wendelllewis882 And Pernell Whitaker.

most dominant ever. his fights weren't even remotely competitive.

He embarrassed Toney so bad ...and Toney was a great fighter but it wasn't even close

Didnt toney have to cut weight and wasnt he past prime?

@@colorado2455 wasnt past his prime at all

@@colorado2455 Toney was weight drained but nowhere near past his prime. He was in his 20s. He would go on later to win multiples titles in different weight classes. It's not Jones fault that Toney wasn't disciplined at that time. Toney would've beaten any other super middleweight that night, but not Roy Jones Jr.

@@ObsidianElohim idk he would have beat mccallum being weight drained.

I’ve heard he has paid for kids to go to college in Pensacola

Roy and sugar ray Leonard and Shane Mosley the most decent people in boxing

@@NWO2023 there’s actually a bunch of great fighters who are great people out the ring. Ali, Ray Robinson, foreman(old), Patterson, pacquio, etc

@@amirdawson770 puntoobubano con luisito guinfanal

Chin? Lol

​@@swizza.i.p7204Actually, the second Tarver fight and Glen Johnson fight were the ones he got knocked out bad after extreme weight loss. Even at an old age and recent fights, he had not tasted the canvas.

@@swizza.i.p7204he definitely had a chin. Father Time just undefeated. Man got hit before, just didn’t go down🤦🏽‍♂️

Agree the best ever to do it his untouchable, but after those devastated loss rj could never get back up and never be the same again but still probably top 10 all time greats

I agree. He is still top 10 with the losses imo.

True. Woulda been an important move. I agree.

Agreed

Not really, his resume isn't the best, even before the Traver loss.

I literally put his videos on shuffle and watch them all day lol

Neveeeeeeeer! But where is ANDERSON SILVA

Not funny to me

@@steviejetera1601 👍🏼

Well it wasn't his natural weight class.....and those heavyweights would have been demolished if they faught outside their weight class too.....

I’d have to argue that manny pacquiao is

@@jedmcevoy9841 what abt joe Louis? He still holds the record for most title defences..

@@jedmcevoy9841 , Manny? Really?! I don't see it.

@@fadeblac5633 well pacquiao has more titles so more accomplished but not necessarily better fighter

My first and second favourite fighters of all time!!! The third one is Oscar "the golden boy " De La Hoya.

@@cm8836 Yep. He was good too.

George foreman as well went 40-0 with 37 knockouts.

@@Djuane Yeah that's true!

Can't say that, Joe fraizer, Ali, sugar ray Leonard, then roy George foreman and Evander holyfield. Tyson in the earlier years were fun

Crawford is probably next to lose unless he retires soon in 1 or 2 more fights.

True, but Glover Texeira won the LHW title, I think he is 44 I believe. He is definitely an outlier, this doesn't happen often at all, but just pointing out that some people can last longer than others. But it's not usually a good idea to fight past that point even if you CAN still fight. It would be better for your brain and body to retire, at least before you actually get seriously hurt, or make the CTE worse than it has to be.

it was less age, and more from weight. age decline is slow, he declined rapidly after hw

@@KenMasters-lh8tk yeah, you dont suddenly turn 35 and your body instantly falls apart that day, granted it doesnt recover as fast as it would if you was younger, but if you have bad lifestyle habits and a bunch of injuries, thats when it starts catching up to you quick imao, usually when people are still at a elite level in their late 30's 40's its because they took care of themselves, and they avoided any major injuries up to that point.

@@ActionJackson669glover texeria didn’t depend on speed and reflexes at 44 Roy depended on it so when his speed went after dropping back down to 175 his fundamentals were gone

Pensacola will always love Rpy for what he did and still does. He was just as great out-of the ring as he was in the ring

I feel the same way, he really deserves to work for ESPN or SportsCenter, because his shit is better than them. If this dude had REAL access to the BEST FILM without fear of copyright strikes ⁉️ Good lord 🙏 He deserves to get PAID

Dude, initially just appreciated your comment as RJJ is still, IMO, the p4p GOAT. (at least until Loma retires. Roy himself agrees w/ me here) Then I noticed your pic. Again IMO as a (former) lifelong FB fan, #16 is, for me personally, another f’n GOAT and another one just as genuine as Jones. Was a fan since his ASU days, lived in Phx then, and his Rose Bowl game was straight-up legend shit, even in a loss. I’m a CO native and when #7 retired I dreamt about seeing “The Snake” in orange & blue, when that finally happened I can’t even describe the emotions. I hadn’t ever even cared much about that side of the ball until Jake, he brought a defensive intensity to the offense. Maybe not the most skilled QB ever but he GENUINELY wanted to WIN and didn’t give a shit if it looked pretty or not! Favre & Elway are really the only close comparisons. Those seasons were the summit for me and really the demise as well, wasn’t ever the same after that. The contempt I developed for Mike Shanahan over that situation boiled over to the rest of the game and essentially ruined it from within for me. It stayed fun thru the Manning years but that was the end for me, they’re all just a pack of showboating, money fueled whores now. No more ‘TEAMs’, just a bunch of ‘I’s. Apologies for the ‘life story’ comment but Roy Jones Jr. and Jake Plummer are 2 men that I hold in equally high regard, not just in their respective fields but also in life. I actually have my photo with each of them and I’m typically not the photo-op type. I couldn’t just happen to notice your pic on a RJJ video and not say something. Thanks for stoking the memories, cheers to you!

It sounds honorable but in this business, boxers should scrape as much cash as they can in exchange for their brain trauma because all those people in his hometown don’t give af about him now ‼️

Roy is an always was a real one. Rare

Not even close, totally dominate

Mike 649Foxx, i STRONGLY AGREE!!!. It's HIGHLY UNLIKELY That YOU Will Ever See REFLEXES & SPEED SUCH AS THAT OF ROY JONES JR. !!!. i Have YET To See Anyone Who Surpasses ROY'S "SKILL SET" When HE Was In HIS PRIME. ROY RULED THE NINETIES!!!. His Demise Began When HE Cut 25 Lbs. To Reclaim The Middleweight Belt. i IMMENSELY ENJOYED Watching ROY Beat vinny pazienza.... & montel griffin. "THE PROUD PARIAH" ♠️R.F. 49♠️

I agree

Factx

Same. He had so many "holy shit did you just see that?" moments- dude was an unreal talent.

@Bruce Wayne , I don't know what your trying to say? Sugar Ray Robinson was a Welterweight, Middleweight. He did start out fighting as a Lightweight in his early days. He fought for Light Heavyweight title but was mostly regarded as a Middleweight. Salvador Sanchez was a Featherweight. Ray Robinson was taller, faster and could punch. So you obviously never seen Robinson.

@Bruce Wayne dunno bout alla that champ

@Bruce Wayne , I told you already but you obviously don't really listen. I know all about Sanchez as I grew up watching his fights. No doubt Sanchez could be rated as one of the all time great Boxers and top pound for pound. Yes, He's in any conversation because he was a special fighter. Where your argument fails though is when you start saying he would rip Ray Robinson apart ? I mean that's laughable because Robinson was 160 and I don't remember any 126 guys ripping apart any 160 guys. He was also around 5'10, 11 longer reach. He was way too big for Sanchez. I mean you are trying to make an argument that you have nothing to support it with. Ray Robinson fought bigger stronger men and Sanchez fought primarily as a Featherweight and was pretty much always fighting guys 126 and under.

In anybody's book with a brain

The Greatest Light Heavyweight Champion🏆 Of All Time In Boxing 🥊 History!

Please, they wouldn't appreciate Joe Vincent

Roy said the so called winner, came to his locker room afterwards and said, "You beat me". Roy said, that was all he needed to hear and then he was ready to move on!

The MOST honorable thing the Korean fighter could have and SHOULD have done was, not accept it and gave it to Roy! He probably would have been killed tho because, you KNOW how them Asians are about their so called honor🤷

@@vladimirjackson1272 nah not in south korea i think

@@maxpainmedia Who knows? 😂 He may have been scared for his life or maybe he didn't even know the fix was on before the games! He looked genuinely surprised when that called him the winner!

@@vladimirjackson1272 well known culture of japanese not all asians though.

Exceptional power, uncontested quickness, amazing knowledge of the game and a warriors heart! The best Pound 4 Pound Boxer ever. His only flaw was not knowing when to say when, that man wanted all the smoke!

Yes he was.

SPECTACULAR BUT IMPATIENT!!! DIDNT HAVE THE HIGH BOXING IQ LIKE FLOYD MAYWEATHER JR!!! OR ROY WOULD BE CONSIDERED THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME!!! AT ANY WEIGHT DIVISION!! EVEN AS IS HES IN THE DISCUSSION NOW!!! ROY NEEDED BETTER HANDLERS!!! SAME AS ONCE CUSTAMATO DIED TYSON WAS MISHANDLED!!

WANTING ALL THE SMOKE CURSED HIM THOUGH!!! I TELL PEOPLE THOSE SUPER HUMAN ATHLETES HAVE NEVER BEEN HIT SO THEY DONT KNOW WHEN TO BACK OFF!!! BUT WHEN THEY SLOW DOWN ITS ONNNN!!

He was Spectactical

got dayum. what a timing indeed.

Who is that? For research purposes ofc

@@wrongviewer ah, a man of science I see.

Yuuuum!

27:43 perfection indeed 😁😁

Whoa now. Top 5 p4p. Let’s talk about it

Make a movie about roy??

Sugar Ray Robinson

WE HOT

When will these gentlemen learn

@jazz03 Same here. Not to mention Roy was 15 and 0 at the start of his career. These days we have "champs" that are 15 and 0. Loma may be an exception with 400 amateur fights, he earned his titles fighting champs.

Samereee

😂 me too 🙌

Well....it wasn't controversial...he clearly violated league policy.

That's the loss that kept him from being 50-0 before Mayweather.

@@joshclearwater6461 yeah he did, but we know Montel didn't have a chance to beat Jones. 😏 But yeah, that's the tough thing about that boxing adrenaline rush; everyone has to be mindful of the rules at all times.

@@daparadigmRoy jones was and is by far a better fighter than Floyd. Jones went into the ring to fight, not comete against Usain Bolt.

@@joshclearwater6461it was still controversial bc it was his first loss are you slow

Omg yessss💯💯🖤

The free Roy they gave you for me was never any good he'd get rocked so easy, stamina drained after a few rounds from body shots, It's the prime 90s Roy that you paid for he was a damn monster on fight night I literally went over 80 fights without losing with that DLC

Him and de la Hoya were my favorites on fight night

@@Brawling_Style what fight night was this

2003 after ruiz

Better than Floyd 💪🏼

Tend to agree with you although for some reason no one holds Sugar Ray Robinsons utter debacle of a later life career against him in terms of being called a GOAT.

@@thegadflygang5381 TRUTHHH

@@maccagodmcdowall8522 He was better than Floyd with his reflexes but nothing else. Floyd’s fundamentals were WAY better and carried him into his 40s. Roy on the other hand depended solely on his reflexes and once they slowed with age he started getting knocked out

RJJ had a major issue, in that he had no rival. nobody was even remotely competitive. so he kept going up in weight, to find new challengers. shouldn't have gone up to hw though.

@user-cz3zj8yw5j yeah but his other issue was not preparing his style for when he aged. He was smart, he should have known eventually his physical skill would decline and started adding things to his repertoire. Sucks because he is my all-time favorite fighter and watching him unable to adjust was rough. In his prime though, the man was a sight to behold.

Roy jones jr owned the 90’s no one could beat him during that time.

@@Djuane He was unreal.

Truuuuuuu. There was no running or ducking. This guy ran thru weight classes not just leagues.

And he didn't without even trying. The real TBE and P4P 🐐

One of the PFP GOATs for sure. He was amazing, one of my favorite ‼️💯🔥🔥🔥

He was the best from 175 to 160 all-time in my opinion I have seen Hagler i think he beats Hagler via desicision and Robinson hearns and leanoard I seen all these fighters in my lifetime except Robinson and watched plenty of his fights and I think Roy whoops them all..

The @@lafayette-. The first,

What a guy 😂 ❤️

What a guy

Bots do that for channels now

Hope you’re okay bro 🙏🏼 keep fighting

Tarver beat roy jones...but he didn't beat ROY JONES. we know what that means

@@therealbs2000 tarver seriously believes he beat roy at his peak to this day which is sad. He was like superman in his prime. Unrivaled, speed and power was unmatched. The last time we seen prime roy jones jr was against ruiz. He should have retired after winning his belts backs otherwise it was all for nothing. 50-0 the real TBE

Prime Roy jones jr vs GGG ?

Lol

​@@bardshitler3328ggg stood no chance

Hearns maybe could

S. R. R. ?, Monzon ?.

An upgrade 2be more precise . 🎯✊💯

No doubt

May I introduced you too Motevidia ,Office Hancho?

Elite fight club

This dude barely says anything in his vids lmao. He basically just takes video clips and says one sentence every 10 minutes and calls it a documentary. Barely any narration or information at all.

I was about 20 at that time so I saw alot of Leonard too. The way I see it is there was only a few boxers that have a certain level of quickness and reflexes...I mean cat-like. There was Roy, Leonard, Floyd, Ali, Whitaker and even Tyson. I guess Manny, Naseem and from what I seen from video, Robinson had that too. All the other guys like Hearns, Hagler, B-hop, De la hoya, Mosley, Trinidad and some others were real close but not quite that quick. Out of that group only Naseem is not seen as a great I think. lol, I forgot about Toney before he got fat. Matter fact he was in terrible shape for the Jones fight compared to what he was. I bet yall didn't know that fight night champions started all the way from Toney's EA sports boxing. Yall don't understand that dude was untouchable at one time like Floyd was.

Michael Buffer actually trademark LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE.

I agree

Monzon, & Robinson ? ?

Joe calzaghe

I second this

@@blakelip3 Good Call

I like the sound of that sir

I'd love a holyfield one

Pretty Boy Floyd too.

@@KelzKelz nah, his matches aren't exciting at all

@@Kevin-ol7gj You dont think Floyds fights are good? I mean to each his own but that dude does the same stuff as RJ. Hes just smaller so not many power hits that you see from the bigger dudes. Def cant hate on Floyd sure he seems douche af but dude has massive skill.

Ali was doing this against much tougher (and in the case of George Foreman, more defensively sound) opponents.

@@Kevin-ol7gj young Floyd was a spectacle

I cant think of any fighter that could have stopped him in his prime even going back 100 years. P4p one of the best ever.

Yeah me also.. @1:24 mf let me up!! 😂

I'm with you bro💯!!!

Amazing that he kept his speed after moving up, you mean. To gain the weight & not lose the speed is incredible.

He couldnt be beat in his prime. Hes the only fighter in boxing history i believe was above everyone else

I know what you mean though. I didn’t think about it in my first reply, but you’re right that it’s weird that he didn’t lose his power when he went back down, too. I guess it was the way I read it the first time 🤷🏻‍♂️

@@Djuane Best I have ever saw in my 50+ years watching boxing and boxing myself. His natural gifts were a step above everyones.
