Trinidad Jones to be televised by...

[crillz]

After the third Tarver fight I think they wanted him only exclusively as a broadcaster, which he was going to do (I Think he was already knee deep before that fight anyway). However, Roy didn't go to many of the production meeting and ****, thinking he could blow them off, so they terminated his contract.

And to chime in on the whole race **** being played out, I don't think it's about race. Tito is probably gunna get whooped. I admit I'm a Roy fan, but I'm also a Tito fan, though not as big, but its just too much to add up.

Tito's never fought above 160, and there he was in serious trouble (i.e. Hopkins). Tito hasn't fought since 2005 against Winky, in which a very skilled boxer gave him a ****ing lesson. Roy has both the power Hopkins did, and the skills that Wright has blended into a nice mixture, so its pretty obvious to say that Tito's going down. Roy's been at least SOMEWHAT active lately, has rounds under his belt, and I just don't think Tito can stand his power and speed.

However, maybe making it to 170 may be a factor for Roy, but who knows.

You only mention Bernard Hopkins but what about how he looked against William Joppy, Hacine Cherifi and Ricardo Mayorga? he got dominated by Wright but it wasn't a beat down it was just boxing at it's best, 1 getting hit and the other not getting hit, no real **** up there just a bad choice of style and a Trinidad with no fire in him. I think now he can rejuvenate himself one more time for an all out Left Hook to the body war, Tito can do it, Jones power wont play that much of a factor because lately Jones pre thinks his punches he doesn't just let his hands go because as his speed diminished he can be countered, Trinidad CAN catch him with another Glen Johnson dogz believe dat, Trinidad has all the tools, he is younger, has never experienced that type of brutal knockout, he feels good, after a long lay off his body called for 170 so I'm sure he will come in good condition and ready for 12, something tells me Jones just wont be able to deal with another onslaught of punches which is what will happen if Trinidad lands that 1 blow to hurt him, I think he will and I think we going to see Roy go down this time from a body shot ala Virgil Hill, thats just my opinion though and I respect yours.. 100

the whole thing started when CottoOverrated1 said the 1st 2 people who picked Trinidad is because they Puerto Rican then RobJr agreed, this isn't no big race issue argument just a discussion, that whole race thing died out already so leave it dead.. 100

Tito wins this fight by UD. Knocking down roy once. Tito ain't going down. I can feel it.

I don't really think HBO "turned their backs" on Roy. Roy is notorious for asking for wayy too much money at innappropriate times. Plus, he was supposed to be a broascaster for them, and the rumor has had it that he wrote off going to meeting and ****, thinking it didn't mean anything.

I think he should maybe just thank somebody that he's even gettint the opportunity to get on the channel again.

You think HBO would care that he was missing meetings if he didn't suffer 2 brutal knockouts?

Probably not.

[SkillspayBills]

Probably not.

Exactly, and Jones is in a big (albeit wayyyyyy overdue) fight and HBO can't help but to get there greedy fingers on it to make some money.

I still can't understand why this is such a hyped up event, and a Pay-Per-View one at that. But to each his own I guess.
