Roy Jones: "Woods Beats Weak Minded Tarver"

[potatoes]

Does anybody realize Tarver's age? What do you expect from these crusty old gits?

[sarlick]

right now woods would beat jones

[RAESAAD]

Please Roy....will you shut the **** up. You beat a blown up retired Trinidad and now all of a sudden you're the man again?......don't forget that Weak minded Tarver KOed your ***** ass......and then nearly KOed you again en route to a clear easy decision win over you. And to this day would beat your ass again if you ever stepped back into the ring with him. Please Roy retire or fight someone with a pulse so they can retire you for us.The talking is for the birds.

Woods targets rematch with Jones

IBF light-heavyweight champion Clinton Woods has set his sights on a rematch with American legend Roy Jones Jr.
Woods, 35, was outclassed by Jones, 39, in six rounds in September 2002 but the Sheffield fighter believes he has vastly improved since that defeat.

"I would love to fight Roy Jones again and this time I would beat him," said Woods, who defends his title against Antonio Tarver on 12 April in Tampa.

"I avenged my loss to Glencoffe Johnson and I would do the same to Jones."

Woods faces a tricky fight against 'Magic Man' Tarver, who co-starred with Sylvester Stallone in Rocky VI, but Jones expects the Englishman to come out on top.


"Clinton should win if he applies the pressure from early on," said Jones, who lost two of his three fights against Tarver.

"Tarver is essentially weak-minded and he gets nervous. He is mentally not the strongest person in boxing and this will be to Woods' advantage.

"I think Clinton will win and then he can fight me."

Jones is a former four-weight world champion and was named as the Fighter of the Decade for the 1990s by the Boxing Writers' Association of America.

He was taken the distance in his last fight with Puerto Rica's Felix Trinidad in January but won a unanimous points decision at Madison Square Gardens in New York.

Shoot me down in flames for saying it, but Jones 2008 version is anyone's for the taking.

The man is creating a buzz to build his next bout! Cant blame him for that but he should be trying to recapture the supermiddle title then retire. forget about LHW its not his natural class. If u can make 168 then fight at 168 and shine if u cant jus call it a career a hell of a career.

I think RJJ TKO's Woods again. Woods doesn`t have the power to worry RJJ, he will try and maul him to death which wont work.

In the words of Glen Monson then Woods "can definitely **** a lickle bit".

Roy 2008 does not have the world's greatest punch resistance.

I understand but Roy has to understand the win says little about him as a contender now a days and he seems to think it makes him P4P again....He's sadly mistaken and will be shown that if he chooses to step in the ring with one of these young bucks like Dawson or Pavlik or even these old bucks that are simply better than him at this point like Calzaghe or Tarver. I wish he'd ask for a rematch with Glen Johnson......He wins that fight and I'll give him a little credit.
