These things are so inconclusive. If Boxing, Jones wins, if UFC, Silva wins which goes without saying. The only fair way is to have 2 fights, one Boxing, the other UFC. That will make the series a draw which is a foregone conclusion.

Edward Snowdon and Roy Jones Jr have found a new home in Russia lately.

Imagine if Jones lost in boxing, would be the biggest embarrassment in the sports history. Don't do it Jones you ****, hang your gloves up.

This would be Jones' first KO in about a decade, and Jones cannot put his punches together anymore. He is as shot as Castillo, Morales and Botha

Hrynuov must have options on Roy Jones...Sad, because Jones used to be his on promoter calling his on shots...

jones doesn't need that money. silva himself usually makes less than a million per fight. under 300 k for sonnen. 600k for wideman. get this: wideman made 50 grand, and that included a 25K bonus to win. his garantee was 25 grand.

jones' HBO commentary gets him more than 99.9something percent of all MMA fighters will earn in a year.


he doesn't need that money. MMA fighters are paid like sh#t.

roy jones is still a very wealthy guy. he does not need this money. he is doing this because he's a deluded, former great. he thinks a couple of wins will get him in position for a title shot. he thinks he's still got it.


it's almost as sad as seeing a broke fighter fighting on when he's damaged goods.
