Why didn't Roy Jones clean out the HW division after beating Ruiz?

So the money would have been HBO type money. Jones balked at that because Sanders could have launched him into orbit.

Roy should have just fought Lennox and got knocked out. He could than blame EVERYTHING on that KO.
It wouldn't have been a big deal either. I mean in hindsight he ended up getting knocked out 4x times anyways...........Might have as well went for it and get knocked out by an ATG HW.
