        a lot of credit for the simple fact that a 39 year old fighter whose been knocked out twice, came into a fight where he saw openings and pulled the trigger, threw 4, 5, 6, 7 punch combinations, double and triple left hooks... worked the jab a lot, killed the right, used uppercuts, left hooks and over-right hands, used a different but effective new style of defense to make up for his past-prime legs, for an entire 12 round fight, while also getting crushed to the body by felix a lot... and showed little to no fatigue... for 39, thats admirable in, and of itself...

          He really did take those bodyshots well.

          I know for a fact he's never been worked to the body like that.

              You have to give him some credit. Not alot, not a little. Somewhere in between.lol. He did good. This is a 39 year old prizefighter who could have easily ran away and retired after two devastating knockout loses back to back. Instead he faught on and won some fights. I'd say thats commendable.

                Not much credit....he couldn't even stop an old washed up, blown up Welterweight. There is now talk about a Jones vs Wright fight happening ...I will lose a lot of respect for Jones if he picks on another smaller fighter in Wright.

                    All I can say is that as a fan I want an entertaining fight, and I was entertained last night. I like Roy and enjoy his fights and he showed glimpses of his old self last night.
