jones-tarver

I dont care what roy jones does as long as he dosent end up like holyfield or Meldrick Taylor, that guy can barley talk , he is harder to understand then muhammad ali, it's very sad

If he knew when to say when, he would have retired after Ruiz or Tarver I... That right there would have made him a freaking legend. He's still raw, don't get me wrong, but could you imagine how he would be viewed if he retired after the Ruiz fight, could you freaking imagine? I know what your saying Ness, RJ should have retired after the first Tarver fight. But thats what happens in boxing... :(

What makes everyone so sure that Roy will want to imediately retire if he beats Tarver? I mean what if Hopkins comes back and TKOs Jermain Taylor in 7 rounds of their next fight, and calls out Roy? What happens then? Well, the thing is if he beats Tarver the good thing to do would be retire. Taking this fight is alreay a big risk. Fighting on past this fight win, lose or draw would be even a bigger risk. I say IF he beats Tarver he should retire then promote, broadcast and drop Body Head Bangerz Volume 2 I liked the first one. :cool:

i hope tarver wins, bcuz even if jones wins, hell retir soon. if tarver wins, hes going to have sum more fihgts tho so for boxings sake i hope tarver wins. n also age has caught up with RJJ . when tito took time off he was still young look at the last few guys who came back from a layoff. they won a fight, then lost.. tsyzu beat mitchel in a rematch, then lost to hatton tito beat mayorga, then was humiliated by winky. so even if RJJ wins, hes going to lose his next fight or soon thereafter

I was reading it somewhere now I cant fin d the link, I dont know if it was true or if it was just someone hattin' on rjj.

well i guess jones tried to put the fight off he said he had" a hurt hand hurt ribs a hurt toenail and some other things gotta find a source for that one.. ;)

Hopefully Roy Jones can shut up Tarver :D , Jones trash talk doesn't bug me as much as Tarvers does.. :boxing: Tarver talked trash to his own momma once cause she only caught one of his latest fights on tv and couldn't see it live because she just had hip surgery 1 1/2 weeks prior. . .. ... j/k :D ;)

That would the rematch aka 2nd fight when Roy got Knocked Out... As for the up comming fight, if we see a glimpse of the Roy Jones of the past he should out box Tarver...I see Tarver trying to knock him out with one punch and hes gonna be loading up for that money punch that may never land...Roy has to box him like he has so many others in the past.. Hopefully Roy Jones can shut up Tarver :D , Jones trash talk doesn't bug me as much as Tarvers does.. :boxing:

hmm It was the 2nd fight. Tarver is such an idiot. If he would have went through what Roy went through in the first fight, Jones would have KO'd him. However, Tarver will trash talk about anything so what should we expect? Didn't really make much sense what Tarver said though given that he LOST the first fight and his excuse was the judges were at fault when he should have been blaming himself and Roy's superiority at that time. Anywho...this 3rd fight is hard to predict, because there's a chance Roy's layoff has helped a lot and that he is very motivated. For now though I'm going with Tarver. Won't say how or when but that's my prediction for now, if forced. My prediction certainly could change pending further reports. The upcoming fight does have big implications for Roy, although none for Tarver. Basically, if Roy wins "he's the man" again, and then he retires if he is smart. If Tarver wins, it's just "ok so what" and he's just doing something he already did.
