Putting an end to the 'RJJ ducked the Brits' myth

Pwned! Pwned! Pwned! :bryce: PWNED PWNED PWNED! :D

man yall musta forgot RJJ is back baby he gonna KO Prince Badu Alabama then yall gone know who p4p #1 RJJ 4EVA

I think Jones didnt duck the brit but he was not as good as a promoter than he is as a boxer. That was promoter do to get fight and it very hard for Jones to get a fight in Britian only if he wa in with another guy does his promotion instead of him some of the big names.

Roy would of reduced Eubank to a tumbling amateur ! Roy against Nigel would be a case of who landed the right power shots first, unless it went the distance with Benn losing decisively. . . .

Yeah :D. Good Karma will be gave for putting up a nice argument. We'd be arguing for days, if we kept on :p indeed............... i need to figure out this karma thing...i need to give some out myself.....

4 corner i just think that roy priced himself out of the fight..... hopkins had vastly improved since they originally fought.. hopkins was to proud to accept 60-40..........i suppose he could have said yea lets go...........but so could jones.... this arguemnet works both ways..............lets just agree to disagree :) Yeah :D.

Hey juice, I know this. Eubank got his ass beat twice by Collins and twice by thompson! Im damn sure Roy Jones didnt fear Eubank. Read the excerpt posted on here from Eubanks own autobiography. Yeah, Roy was real scared of him.

rjj should have fought hopkins at a catch for 50-50 because thats what we all wanted to see....... hopkins deserved 50% he was a champ too(it takes 2 people to make a super fight like that so 50-50 was only fair).........and 50% would have been a lot.....that fight would have gone through the roof in ppv ratings........it would have been massive demanding more money is just a easy way out.......yes im sure roy would have took the fight at 60-40......the extra money would have made it worth the risk of losing his p4p rating,plus the fact that he had commited himself on tv....but i really do not think jones wanted to fight hopkins.......if he wanted to he would have let it happen. jones looked aggrevated and annoyed in the interview.....he just didnt want to even be talking about it... NO WAY DID JONES WANT TO GO ANYWHERE NEAR B HOP.. no before you guys shout me down.........im suggesting rjj would have lost.........he had unbeliveable skill.............but hopkins was a very risky fight when his other options were much easier.......he wanted easy if you dont agree thats fine..........but i honestly think thats what happend..... If you haven't noticed Jone doesn't really give a shit about the media. It would be fair at a 50-50 split, but why should he give Hopkins that much credit when Jones had already beat him once? An easy way out? Like I said before if Hopkins really wanted Jones he would've said let's do it, but instead he just kept talking. I doubt Jones would take a dive just for the money or to harm his P4P rule. I can understand why Jones might have been aggravated, because he shouldn't of had to bother with Hopkins wanting a rematch who he already knocked outta the boat once, why do it again? Of course Hopkins wanted easy, everyone wants the easy way, but in boxing and life. Nothing is easy! He should've had to prove himself to Roy for a change, by taking the fight under those circumstances. Why wouldn't of Roy not wanted to go near BHOP? If the fight was actually closer then it was, I imagine Roy would've fought him again and do the exact thing he did last time.

I didn't know Chris Eubank was Mica Paris' cousin! I wish BPP would already own your ass.. :cool:

even foreman said they should split the purse the only reason the fight didnt happebn was because rjj was hiding behind his name..... rrj is a muti milinaire.......that would have been the fight of the year....... only jones prevented it happening.........hopkins was a champ too.........why shouldnt he get 50-50? just because rjj says so..........? sorry rjj didnt want to risk it........and he knew hopkins pride would get in the way of him accepting 60-40 jones backed out..........i dont care what anybody thinks....its easy to shout down a mic.....he should have got in the ring :boxing: Why the hell would he give a champ 50-50 when he completely dominated him the first time they fought? Where's your proof in Roy not wanting to risk it? He stated throughly that he'd kick hopkins' ass multiple times in the video. If Hopkins really wanted Roy he woulda said fuck the 60/40 lets get it on, but he didn't do that. He did all of his talking like he deserved another shot against Roy. Roy shouldn't need to fight him twice to get him to shut up. There's no reason to give Hopkins a rematch when he got blown out like that. If it was a closer fight and, if Roy decided not to fight i'd see what your coming from. The fight wasnt close at all. Roy could've beat him with his left hand and that's exactly what he did the first fight.

He really did back dude didn't he? :eek:

I know what you saw. Hopkins called out Jones, who was live via satelite feed. Jones offered him 60/40 split and "I'll kick your ass." And Hopkins turned it down. Nuff Said..

nah im not being stupid i saw it i remember it..........hopkins defo asked for it.he wanted to try and get revenge,i wish i could remember what fight it was after....... I know what you saw.

Roy doesn't have to prove he has to beat Hopkins again, he whipped him with a broken right hand! Not like he even needed it with his helluva left hooks. im not judging rjj im just saying he wouldnt rematch hopkins........whatever the reason was only he knows...........but he wouldnt do it,that i do know........im not talking about the recent talk of a rematch im going back a few years now to when rjj was still top of his game........he definatly backed down

WTF? You're clueless. Roy offered the fight to him on live HBO at a 60/40 split and Hopkins turned it down. Roy was the bigger name, the bigger draw, P4P #1 and had already beaten Hopkins. 60/40 was more than fair for a rematch. Let's try and not get stupid around here, please. nah im not being stupid i saw it i remember it..........hopkins defo asked for it.he wanted to try and get revenge,i wish i could remember what fight it was after.......
