I mean he dominated Lacy but he looked ugly doing it...He kept going straight back and if it was Joe Calzaghe he would've got whooped even easier this time... don't let the Square Ring announcers fool you. I haven't been on the boards so I don't know, but what I do know is that Roy should RETIRE NOW!!!
It was a good performance. Thought it was enjoyable and he had a good inside game. Also like the fact that he now has the chance to become 5 division world champion although the IBO isn't top ranked; will still be good to watch like.
i was impressed i mean he is 40 years old and he beat the shit outta lacy and was basicley playing with him in the ring like a punching bag i thought it was impressive
My only problem with Jones is he should have went all out an KOd Lacy way sooner. Jones went from entertaining and playing around then after a point it was getting sadistic and was hard watching the fight.
so knocking him out cold would of been less sadistic :lol1:
in round 10 he started yelling at the crowd "ima get em... ima get em"
I think he wanted the KO in the last 2 rounds..
he was yelling 40 at 40! 40 at 40!... he wanted it... but they gave in before he got it...

That's true that's roy's style now. Think Hanshaw, roy was against the ropes a lot, that's just his style now because he doesn't have the same reflexes and leg movement he had when he was younger, so he does that cover up winky-like defense which works for him most of the time (obviously against guys like calzaghe who throw a million punches its not always going to work but for most opponents it's fine).
IMO he is getting better on the ropes... hes getting some good rounds in, some good experience in... rolling blocking evading slipping punches a lot better, and learning to seperate just enough to get his flash shots in.. which when they land they are clean, and they are clear... and the judges notice them
a 40 year old fighter tha has been knocked out 2x still being able to fight at decent comp (lacy wasnt that good, but he isnt the worst), yes i was a little impressed, is that wrong? lol
if anyone here thinks lacy FORCED roy to be on the ropes then they ARE delussional... in no way shape or form did Lacy make Roy do anything he didnt want to do... that was all by choice... and why not.. hey u want the fight on the ropes... then ill beat you here... you wanna box me in the middle... ill beat you here too
remember people "roy is shot too pieces" and is 41.. he was knocked out twice 5 years ago... and hes garbage.
