RJJ GETS KO'd AGAIN

This mans fall from grace was so fast,unexpected and brutal that its almost hard to believe. Its probably a nightmare for him and hes depressed. The only way to make the demons go away is to try and recapture the past. He was knocked out brutally in his last two fights, you don't make a comeback after that, not at the championship level. He is gonna get his ass kicked again and then what? ....I hate to say it but I agree with what your saying for the most part.

i was willing to buy the losing wieght excuse for the first fight with AT... and i was willing to accept the "he just got caught" theory for the 2nd fight... but after wathing what GJ did to him, i cant help to think time has just caught up with roy... and time will affect fighters like roy (that rely on their speed and reflexes) more than it will affect boxer/punchers who rely on other things...

This is a tough call I don't think it will go past 8 rounds, personally. I respect RJJ and acknowledge his greatness but admit that I was never a big fan because of his show boating. There's something to be said for a great champion who is humble like the Brown Bomber. I can only imagine how different his career could have been had he just chilled out a little bit rather than demonstrate how self involved he truly was. Regardless of egos I say Tarver wins by TKO/KO within 8 rounds. If he doesn't put Roy away by then RJJ will come on crazy strong towards the later rounds. If Roy makes it past the 8th he may believe that Tarver can't get the KO and will fight with reknewed spirit. Roy can take the fight if he performs strong in the last rounds but it's unlikely in my opinion. I think Tarver still wants to beat Roy more than Roy wants to reclaim his greatness. As far as Roy is concerned this fight has little to do with Tarver and everything to do with Roy. When it comes to Tarver he seems to know that this fight is all about beating Roy and will not allow himself to be distracted by his own legacy, at least not until the fight is finished. I don't believe RJJ could say the same. RJJ will be too distracted by his own potential embarrassment and will fight on the run and may fight scared if he gets caught with hard shots. If that happens he won't win even if it goes the distance. His ego could not recover from another loss. He'll retire for sure. Peace to all.

Mikehunt seems to be itching and Rashing..... :D

im gonna have to disagree with the KO part Tarver was lucky to KO him he was gun shy the fight after that and now he's back he is in better shape he is roy of semi old minus all the speed and showboatness! I see this going the distance I want Jones to win but see it going to Tarver OK, so we agree to disagree. But your betting with your heart and not your head........That always spells disaster or in this case KO'd.

Wake up! He was knocked the fuck out cold twice and hes goona get knocked out again. im gonna have to disagree with the KO part Tarver was lucky to KO him he was gun shy the fight after that and now he's back he is in better shape he is roy of semi old minus all the speed and showboatness!
