I think that the Johnson knockout was more of him giving up then an actual knockout

    A lot of people don't know this about Roy but he has narcolepsy.

    He wasn't knocked out, he simply fell asleep.

    If by "giving up" he means his consciousness..................then I guess he's right. :bears:

    He couldn't get up for this fight, he was bored to sleep.

    I have been reading all the boxing writers on the internet about this fight and there are a lot of really uninformed people writting about this.

    Like I said directly before the Tarver fight......and I'll say again now, Roy Jones should have never dropped back down to 175 after fighting Ruiz.

    That same tactic RUINED Eddie Mustafa Muhammad.

    If anything.....Jones shoulda settled at Cruiserweight and won another title in a different weight division.
    Glencoffee Johnson isn't/wasn't one hundredth the fighter that Roy Jones is/was .
