Roy Jones is NOT back

[2501]

True, but the Roy of old would **** their wives and burn their children's beds while they were sleeping.

Not the same dude.

Agreed. But what I'm getting at is that many times we dismiss a fighter because they are not what they used to be. Take Ron Harper who played with Michael Jordan during the championship years. When he was drafted and put in the league, dude was a BEAST. The way he was going, he was headed as being one of the best players of the league. But then he hurt his knee and became a role player. Yeah, he wasnt what he was or was supposed to become, but he was still alot better than alot of dudes in the league.

LOL poor vladimir. You need a reality check.

I'm sorry to have struck a nerve with you. I realize you have a Roy Jones Shrine at your house worshipping him.......but somebody had to tell ya.

Both Tarver and Johnson have Roy's number.

Based on what I've seen from the Tito fight, Glen Johnson would still knock him out like the last time if the rematch happens UNLESS there is something wrong with Glen Johnson. After all he is 39 as well.

I know most logical fans in here agree. To those bandwagoners who only know about Roy Jones by watching Roy Youtube highlights and compilations, yall are making yourselfs look ridiculous.

Not only has he slowed down BUT the Ko losses changed him offensively. He is punch shy. Sure he let his hands go against Tito once he realized Tito couldn't hurt him BUT against Glen or Tarver......same things happens again. He will showboat more and punch less and will lose one way or the other.

2 star rating and red karma.. were not surprised..

To be honest... I don't think there is much of a problem with what he said.

He just said that Roy fights more defensively now, and it's true, because he would have Richard Hall'd that version of Trinidad before he lost.

I actually think it's a good accurate topic, but that is just me.

I spoke my piece and bitches like you think you're doing something by giving me red karma. As someone else once said, I wear it as a badge of honor.

I spoke the truth. I don't respect dudes like you who can't keep your emotions out of a boxing discussion idiolizing a fighter.

Dwiens, it's cool brother. These guys have avatars and profiles dedicated to RJJ thinking they're him. They can't have a regular discussion when it comes to him. I'm not bashing roy, I'm simply giving my opinion on his currest status.

He is a great fighter but he is not back no matter what he says. I believe he at one point said "Roy is back" during his fight with Glen johnson and a few rounds later he got knocked out.



But what do you expect from these mutants? Giving me red karma, I don't even know what Red karma is.

[robjr]

yea to be honest I just read the thread title and expected it was another hater.. like moofo and jocalzaghe, now going by __ricky__
