When he got knocked down I turned off Sopcast. I didn't need to see anymore. He'll always be one of my favorite fighters. Hopefully he stays out of this game for good and enjoys the rest of his life with his family.
It's ironic how 18 years ago Roy Jones beat Hopkins and got that global respect he wanted. Now today in 2011, the same day Roy Jones finally retires, Hopkins will finally set his place in the history books as not only one of the all time greats, but as the oldest champion in the history of the sport.
It's crazy when you think about it.
Kostya just called out Danny Green for Lebedov
Not sure Tzsyu's relationship with Danny Green but make this fight happen
Before the fight Tszyu said it was a one fight thing and that he wasn't going to be training Denis after Jones? I'd love for Tszyu to stay on as a trainer and Green vs Lebedev would be a great fight i think.
Roy please retire. What good are you to your family if you end up blind, braindead, and in a wheelchair? I can't defend your continuation in such a brutal sport. You're letting yourself, your family, and your legacy down with each passing fight. Do the right thing and retire.
I gotta say the production value of this was pretty good for a regular mid-day Saturday fight in Russia, it was on par with HBO/Showtime and everything was nicely done. Gotta give alot more props to the fans who came out to support Roy Jones, he had more russians cheering for him than Lebedov. He seemed really happy after he got knocked out, I wonder how much hidden money he got for fighting there since he seemed eager to come back.
Russia pulled it off, the fans were great and the atmosphere good too
Tszyu gets nothing from me for not rematching Shitman Fatton.
You said you were done with boxing and were crying the page before because a shot Roy got knocked out, one page later you're ****ting on Tszyu for not having rematched Hatton when he was shot and had a bruised brain from the beating he took..lol talk about hypocrisy

Zoo trying to get the Aussie's on board with him and his russian against Danny Green lol
My heart stopped for a bit when Roy got stopped there, genuine worry for his health. Please retire Jones, the comment about continuing was disturbing
I'm actually in tears, bro.
I can't stop crying.
I'm done watching boxing.
No don't .:sad:..you gotta watch Pascal take out Hopkins , to add insult to injury..we here in Canada will do it and enjoy every second..:boxing:
