Although it is a new era, the 21st century with new players and new ways of doing things, some tricks remain the same in the world of boxing. Legends like Roy Jones Jr understand this. Some names will never fade, right? I mean, even after years of not being a player, retired, they still echo the same noise and energy like decades ago. The truth is, legends like Roy Jones Jr are needed from time to time. They have the tricks and understanding of what to do and not to do in a boxing ring. You know, strategies such as studying your opponent, identifying their weakness, and striking them down to win the battle.
A boxing legend who has seen potential in a young player and is willing to help
At times, it is rare to get legends offering their help to see a rising star win. Some gatekeepers keep information regarding their winning secrets because they want to keep it to themselves. However, what are mentorship and leadership without exposing a thing or two to your upcoming players or mentees? An upcoming boxing player is soon going to face an opponent, and this particular legend has offered to assist.
During his time, he obtained middleweight, super middleweight, light heavyweight, and heavyweight. He was just one of those players who knew their story in the boxing ring. I am talking about speed, power, endurance, and the smooth blends he made to fight his opponents. The same man is seen as an OG, just like other OGs such as former Rochester native Pat O’Connor, who made the crowd scream his name. Now he wants to help a young player climb the ladder.
There will soon be a UFC title match, but the chances could change if one man makes an offer
Ilia Topuria is getting ready for one of the most difficult games of his career, and he will be facing Charles Oliveira. Topuria has grown as a player and gained recognition because of his exclusive fights and punches, and how he is not moved or shaken by the pressure of boxing. These attributes made him loved by many fans, as he exudes confidence and power.
However, since this is an intense fight coming up on June 28. One legend, Roy Jones Jr, has offered his help to step in and sharpen Ilia Topuria a little bit. Background story? Charles Oliveira is poisonous and dangerous. His ground game is lethal, as evidenced by his record-breaking number of submission victories in UFC history. Therefore, inasmuch as Topuria is good, he needs to take the offer from Roy Jones. This is what Roy said:
“I would make a lot of difference [to Ilia Topuria’s camp for Charles Oliveira] because I teach how to get the most out of the striking, how to stay set while you’re doing it.”
How will Roy Jones Jr make this game better and easier for Ilia Topuria?
These are some of the key elements: He is a legend, a boxing enthusiast, nothing less. He will give Ilia Topuria a different perspective on how to target his opponent, especially the mindset of a champion. Do you know why players such as Jermall Charlo seem to make it easy to win a boxing match? It is because they have a champion mindset. When you lose in your head or mind, you have already lost, and those are some of the important aspects Roy Jones wants to impart to his trainee. Roy Jones understands everything in the boxing ring. Therefore, the Topuria vs Oliveira battle will be one we are looking forward to.
