Jones was putting on a show but was still afraid to get hit i think he is better off now then he was then and if he can use a jab he will be very difficult to beat. And for the record no way in hell trinidad a straight up and down fighter who is a natural welterweight can beat Roy. To slow and not enough power at the weight. Roy will play around for a bit and then brutally ko Trinidad.Comment

Agree totally. Roy should have siezed the opportunity and tried to win the trilogy. Instead he sat back. Even if he was ko'd again in Tarver-Jones 3, I'd have more respect for him than the way he let this fight just slip away.
And afterwards his proclomation is: 'He didn't knock me out!'Comment

He did that by fighting a cautious fight and ended up losing.Comment

I actually love watchin this vid because Roy had so much confidence in himself during this round, and the one before it. I hate that he didnt keep it the entire fight though. If he fought like that all night he would have had people saying "Roy's Back!"Comment
