View Full Version : RJJ VS Johnson
Jiggaman6810 09-19-2004, 03:06 AM Just wondering who thinks RJJ will KO johnson. I think we are going to see a different style of fighting from RJJ but he will make short work of Johnson. To send a mesage to Tarver. I could be wrong but i doubt we will ever see Roy fighting like he did post Tarver.
barryboy 09-19-2004, 11:32 AM I think Jones will stop Johnson late, Johnson tired in the 2nd half of both his fights with Clinton Woods and Woods nearly had him in the last round of the first fight so Jones has the ability to stop him but it's all about Jones mental state, we know he wasn't keen to get down in the trenches before so now that he's been ktfo he might be even more hesitant to do so, if that's the case then Jones on points but he should stop Johnson really.
Cleary23 09-19-2004, 12:06 PM I think Jones might send a message to Tarver and make short work but then again he could be very cautious.
He shouldnt have to be to cautious in this fight but more catious in the rubber match with Tarver.
ThaGreatest1 09-19-2004, 01:28 PM i think jones will knock him out
but whats it's on hbo?showtime? hbo east west?
Eyeh8you 09-19-2004, 02:20 PM He should knock out china chin Jones in rd3 :eek:
Cleary23 09-19-2004, 02:25 PM Jones will not get knocked out you ****in idiot.
Its on HBO and TSN is pickin it up.
mic573 09-19-2004, 02:32 PM I think Jones will fight a very cautious fight. Since the knockout loss I think he has been kind of humbled and knows he is not superman. I remember when Don King was hyping him up saying he was the black superman or something like that Jones was like yeah baby. I don't get that impression from Jones now. He says he will come out and knockout Johnson but I won't be surprised if it goes to a decision. Jones will win though.
The Fix 09-19-2004, 02:49 PM jones will win by decision and look very cautious in the begining.towards the end of the fight he will put more pressure on johnson and look to hurt him.he will probably put johnson down and coast to the victory via UD
Deric 09-19-2004, 05:44 PM If Jones doesn't blow this guy away he should retire. He seen what happened to him when he steps up the competition, first getting outpointed and awarded a gift decision and finally after giving a rematch (that he didn't want to give) only because of the public demanded being KO'd. He won't fight anyone worth a damn for the rest of career.
rocky21 09-19-2004, 06:21 PM This is a joke RJJ has to much speed & power for Johnson. Roy will ko Johnson by the 6th. Anyone who thinks Roy is threw, or has a glass jaw because of one fight is a fool. Bhop, Tito, Oscar, Toney, Tarver, and evan Tyson could only dream ther as good as RJJ.
FrankJack 09-19-2004, 07:55 PM Roy is still an ill fighter, no doubt. To think otherwise is dumb, I think. I've never seen Glen fight, so I can't say who I think is gonna win. But after being knocked out, I think one of two things should have happened for Roy:
1. He developed his close quarters fight game.
2. He'll no longer fight as wrecklessly as he did against Tarver in their rematch.
Personally, I think we'll see a much more cautious Jones in the early rounds, if he feels his opponent is worn down, then he'll go for the knockout. If not, he'll win on points. I don't see Roy as the type of fighter who would try to develop his close range fight game. I would rather that he focus more on winning off of points convincingly than going for a knockout. That's what I would suggest for any fighter though. Might be as interesting to the crowd, but they're not the ones in the ring.
Dark Destroyer 09-19-2004, 08:00 PM [QUOTE=barryboy]
I agree, Johnson has alot of heart but talent wise he is far below Roy still. This fight should be a confidence booster for Roy to spring back from his defeat and win a title.

You dug this thread up from the depths of hell. How wrong was i :D
Cleary23 09-19-2004, 08:01 PM I think Roy will come out catious and get a late round knockout.
In the third Tarver fight he will be extremely cautious and ound out his UD although I would love to see Antonio Tarver get kncked the **** out.
Dr.Depravity 09-19-2004, 08:52 PM I think Roy will get a late round K.O. I hope he will fight Tarver again after Johnson though. Im getting antsy about payback
ThaGreatest1 09-19-2004, 08:52 PM i think jones will knock out glen johnson on saturday
Hurlex 09-19-2004, 09:38 PM jones will ko this fool for sure...i think hopkins ko'd this guy right?? anyway yeah jones by ko i say 7th....jones needs this fight to get some confidence back..plus he needs that belt glen has so he can have some say in the money issue when he faces tarver again...cuz we all know we cant let tarver have what he ask for..remember when he was sayig he should be worth 5million per fight..lol..plz
The Fix 09-19-2004, 11:54 PM iam 100% positive roy jones wins the fight. i just cant wait for the trilogy
Cleary23 09-20-2004, 12:01 AM ROy will win all of the rest of his fights until retirement.
ThaGreatest1 09-20-2004, 12:21 AM This is a joke RJJ has to much speed & power for Johnson. Roy will ko Johnson by the 6th. Anyone who thinks Roy is threw, or has a glass jaw because of one fight is a fool. Bhop, Tito, Oscar, Toney, Tarver, and evan Tyson could only dream ther as good as RJJ.
i agree man jones is good as hell they call him tha one hitter quitter
Neuraxis 09-20-2004, 12:28 AM I am no RJJ fan, but there is no way Johnson can beat him. Johnson has no power and RJJ has never been outboxed. The only way to beat him is with power.
MrUnstoppable 09-20-2004, 02:25 PM Jones by KO. I think this fight will bring out more of the old entertaining Roy we are used to prior to the Ruiz fight. Roy takes down Johnson, then Tarver and Hopkins but I'm not sure about the order. I dont think Tyson or Klitchko are completely out of the picture either.

Well, that's why we don't pay you to think.
MrUnstoppable 09-20-2004, 07:55 PM Well, that's why we don't pay you to think.
At least I have the capabilty of a rational thought.
Neuraxis 09-20-2004, 08:03 PM Saying that you don't think that Klitschko and Tyson aren't out of the picture is hardly a rational thought.
MrUnstoppable 09-20-2004, 11:21 PM Guess you don't know much about Roy or big money fights.
Neuraxis 09-20-2004, 11:36 PM Jones isn't dumb enough to fight Klitschko or Tyson (though Tyson may be finished). He gave up his belt before so he wouldn't have to fight Klitschko. And why should he? He's not a heavyweight. Contrary to your belief RJJ is not Superman, and he cannot hang in there and take HW punches. If for some reason he did enter into talks with the Klitschko or Tyson camps, he'll talk big and demand something insane like a 70/30 split. Been there done that.
MrUnstoppable 09-20-2004, 11:39 PM Vitali and Mike are both overrated and contrary to your belief, Roy knows they are beatable. Roy would like nothing better than to go out beating Tyson or winning the recognized heavyweight championship of the world. I think Tarver and Hopkins will definately happen but I assure you he has Mike and Vitali in the back of his mind.
Neuraxis 09-20-2004, 11:48 PM I can't tell if you like RJJ or not. Why would you want to put him up against a HW when he's not a HW? Yes they are obviously beatable, everyone is. How is RJJ going to beat them? Pray that they injure themselves during the fight. That's his only chance at beating them. What belt does Mike have? Mike is probably going to go back to flying his pigeons anyways. Jones best shot at winning a HW belt is not through Vitali.
Roys bubble got burst aginst Tarver, the old reflexes are dimming the speed lessening, Roy may well get a wake up call against Johnson, who is massivley underated and a hard son of a ...
Im not saying he will definitely beat Roy but I think it will be more hotly contested than thought.
Johsnon is hungry and while he doesnt have the skills of RJJ we may just see him take that desire in the ring after so many rip offs and bad decisions, this is his money fight, his meal ticket to another big pay day.
Be interesting to see how this goes. I dont see Jones whacking Johnson out of there early thats for sure.
Dont write off glengoffe, reckon it will jones by UD, but like I say an upset could be on the cards.
Neuraxis 02-06-2005, 06:33 PM Vitali and Mike are both overrated and contrary to your belief, Roy knows they are beatable. Roy would like nothing better than to go out beating Tyson or winning the recognized heavyweight championship of the world. I think Tarver and Hopkins will definately happen but I assure you he has Mike and Vitali in the back of his mind.
Like I said if he can't handle a soft hitting LHW there is no way he can handle Vitali and Tyson's power.
Dark Destroyer 02-06-2005, 07:40 PM I agree, Johnson has alot of heart but talent wise he is far below Roy still. This fight should be a confidence booster for Roy to spring back from his defeat and win a title.
You dug this thread up from the depths of hell. How wrong was i :D Now i ****ed up the old quote too
Eyeh8you 02-06-2005, 07:44 PM Man James T does look like a gorrila in a babyblue suit. Man these milk duds dress in funny ****. Do these idiots actually think they look stylish? He looks like he should be up on stage doowopin in the 50s!
Dark Destroyer 02-06-2005, 07:48 PM Your a racist ****wit. That man has more style than you'll ever know.
Eyeh8you 02-06-2005, 07:53 PM Your a racist ****wit. That man has more style than you'll ever know.
Im racist cause JT has no style whats so ever? If you think that suit is stylish your a fukin idiot. He looks like the backup singer of the Chi-lites LMFAO
Man you need a hero
Dark Destroyer 02-06-2005, 07:58 PM You've always made racist references about certain black boxers in the past so this dig was no suprise. By using the term Gorilla and these milk duds and refering to him in a these category tells me different. Maybe i just misunderstood the bull**** you were typing but thats the impression i got :rolleyes:

The only BS you misunderstood is that suit looks good on JT! LMAO. :D Seriously james Toney looks like a gorrila covered in charcol dust. If thats being a bigot I guess I am.
FYI i used the term milk dud only to the bald black guys cause thats what it reminds me of.LOL It would't make much sense for me to call Dale Brown or Jesse James Leja a milk dud now would it?
So put that in yer crackpipe and smoke it!
