Young Roy Jones Jr. Showed Why He Was The BEST Fighter In The World | CLASSIC FREE FIGHT

[@superAweber]

This is the kind of concussed beating that makes me research a boxer's career afterwards. Harris left boxing after this fight, in good health, after 3 years in the pros. He said he knew taking too many shots is bad for you. Today he manages a bar and plays lots of golf.

[@WarriorsOfYasheral]

I've been waiting to see this fight in HD for many years. Thank you! Roy jones, Ray Robinson, Pernell Whitaker, and Meldrick Taylor are my favorite fighters of all time.

[@billking1751]

Back in the day Jones was the man; too bad the fighters that beat him once he was past his prime wasn't around to take him on while HE WAS in his prime.

[@gloriaa.garcia3985]

I always enjoyed HBO fights and enjoyed watching Roy as a fighter and as a commentator.

He fought way past his sell by date, thats all that is, if he would’ve retired after beating John Ruiz, maybe the fight after against Tarver, he would be universally recognised as one of the top 5 fighters ever. He’s one of the all time greats regardless, just people have that stick to beat him with, that he lost to Calzaghe etc but those fights mean as much to me as Ali losing to Berbick did, fact is everybody knows that Roy would’ve dazzled against the likes of Calzaghe in his prime. Jesus, the guy beat James Toney in his prime, a young B Hop, Reggie Johnson, Mike McCallum, you think the Calzaghes and Glen Johnsons of this world would’ve even got close to him at his best?

@@billking1751 fake paul made more money

[@billking1751]

I agree with everything you said. The only problem I found was listing Mike McCallum, as one of the guys he beat. Yes he fought and beat McCallum, but by then Mike was 40 years of age, fighting at Light Heavyweight, and he was by way past his prime old, flabby, and by then no punching power, especially at that weight class. Too bad they couldn't have BOTH been in their prime, and fought at middle weight. Things could have been more interesting. Jones's speed would have probably made the different anyway, but I think the fight could have been better. But that's boxing.

[@TheLastServantOfNito]

@@billking1751 Realistically he would have lost anyways, Roy was literally invincible to bodyshots i don't think he ever got dropped by one after his prime and that was McCallum best weapon

[@wilfredrivera6521]

At his peak absolutely unbeatable pound-for-pound the goat

[@Boxinghockey23]

Thank you for every one of these remastered fights. It’s SO important to clean these up as much as possible so this younger generation can learn about the great figures from years past. It’s vital to the sport for people to learn it’s history and tbh it’s kind of difficult to watch those old videos with terrible quality. Thank you a bunch for continuing to put these fights on here

[@tom11zz884]

I think these are just the original masters that Top Rank has. Top Rank isn't going to invest any money remastering these videos sadly.

[@Nabokov10]

Props to Harris for getting out of that first round!

[@GbolieThaGhost]

I wasn’t ready for the first knockdown 😭

[@gamebuyer22]

Trump wasn't ready either haha.

[@JahlilBlackhead]

Everybody is not ment to be a boxer bro should've been in the nba

[@tom11zz884]

Prime Jones Jr was just different Unlike any fighter today.

[@roblockhart8410]

My favourite boxer of all time. It was always fun watching the KO’s in heavyweight but no one had the skills of Roy Jones.

[@BoxingFan4Life]

Not the skills but the reflexes. He had cat like reflexes similar to a 1960s Ali. Like Ali once those reflexes slowed down he was able to get hit more

[@boxer786ful]

Jones was the best boxer of all time. He was so dynamic. No1 comes close. In his prime, he was just exceptional

[@joejohnson6321]

He had the speed and power for his size and no one has had it since. He’s one of the top 5 greatest of all times.

[@markbay9275]

Absolutely. His prime is just different than other boxers.

[@dy120481]

Best boxer of the 90's, and it's not even close.

[@melvert33]

Feel bad for Harris, I'm sure he was a tough fighter but imagine having to fight Roy Jones Jnr who's just reaching his prime!

[@808waimanalo]

@ 9:20 Our President right there

[@krissteele4678]

Kissing the glove before the bomb is crazy work 💣💋

[@SOLE_II_SOUL]

Roy was channeling “God Mode”this fight.

[@dil8784]

You probably think he’s out of range when He throws that Leaping left hook but he always in Range and Lands it on the money. The Accuracy Hand and Eye coordination the speed Power and Reflexes was something to behold. Dude was a Genetic Freak! If any fighter that was created in a Lab it was RJJ.

[@christianbelzer]

02:30 Jones kisses his right glove - then knocks the opponent CLEAn down

Roy was the best and fast world champion 🏆

[@busby7255]

Roy jones beat Bernard Hopkins, James Toney,Virgil Hill and an old great in Mike Mccallum. Anyone who has not seen Roy's ko of Thomas Tate please watch it,my favourite ko.

[@chrisgonz9963]

Roy Jones in his Prime was unbelievable fast hands with Power never forget the First Round KOs of Art Serwano and Montell Griffin 2

[@82weeks94]

Roy Jones Jr in his Prime was unbelievable.

[@Bankai_Musashi1]

Could say the same for tens of boxers though

Harris had heart in that fight. I'm impressed

[@reureubaby]

Can we get Roy vs Eric Thomas!!!

[@AdeptRaidChaser]

Young "captain hook" Roy Jones Jr. Harris should have BEGGED for mercy instead of being called "no mercy"...

[@MixedMartialHelp]

Sublime performance

[@Fit4lyfe122]

Roy didn’t show Percy no mercy 😂

[@avatarskyriser4066]

Dropped him in like a minute, lol.

[@Darrencollinsjr]

This the guy Jaron Ennis fights like right?😂😂😂.

[@WarriorsOfYasheral]

Jaron Ennis is nowhere near Roy Jones Jr.

[@Darrencollinsjr]

@WarriorsOfYasheral exactly🤣🤣🤣

[@poiudndudbbd]

If Roy retires after winning the HW title, he'd be considered the P4P GOAT by most people.

[@ANTZPound4Pound]

Antoine Tarvar Showed him *"WHOS Da MAN!!"*

[@Whatillknockteethout]

kissing your glove before you knock mans down is diabolical

[@stevemichaels9852]

Y’all musta forgot 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@emmettorafferty1006]

Blatantly robbed of a olympic 🥇 in Seoul '88 but he went on to become the 🐐 of professional 🥊🎉

[@Bankai_Musashi1]

Nowhere near the goat but he was sure a great, just didn't have any legends other than Toney to showcase his skills. Came in at the end of a great 160/168 era, a shame

[@LifeOfRy]

In my view the GOAT.

[@itsdwee]

RJJ is one of those fighters I watch purely for entertainment and not to study fight tape; because I know no way in hell I could ever move like that, freakish haha.

You're only the greatest , until your kryptonite is discovered. Roy's kryptonite was a stiff jab . He didn't have one , and Antonio Tarver did . Nite nite .

Not really, he beat Tarver already. It was the weight that was his kryptonite
