    Thanks.

    Hehe.
    the first tarver fight he was getting hit through his guard... the 2nd fight he got KOed going back to the ropes... the 3rd fight he did AWESOME off the ropes... check round 5 for that.. and in the tito fight.. he did everything right against the ropes...

    thats all unbiased **** right there

      all of the Tarver fights..he didnt counter off the ropes like he used to.

      watch the Tito fight. th efirst 2-4 rounds. he just laid on the ropes and covered up when Tito was getting off. no countering what so ever.

          Yup. So. The first Tarver fight was in 03. The second in 04 - where his back never touched the ropes until he went down.

          The third one was in 05. He did VERY WELL against the ropes.

          In his next 3 fights, he was SUPERB against the ropes.

          But he's worse there. LMAO.

          Dude's get so caught up in the "Roy Jones is shot" debate that they don't even know what that means.

          Jones' legs, if anything are shot. Where he's vulnerable is when he ISN'T leaning against the ropes and is forced to use his legs. And that's exactly why I think Calzaghe-Jones is a very close fight. I'll go into detail later after I laugh at whatever comeonmang's response is.

            LMAO.

            So that means he's not as good? Let's just discount the next 10 rounds?? Or the fact that he was literally LAUGHING at Tito's shots?

                ok. but that was ONE round one instance.

                DOESNT negate the fact that he wasnt doing it like he used to. He more less cover up with the exception of that one OR times.

                  Roy Jones better get his mind right and take this fight. Stop being old Roy who argues about money. This would be a fun fight. Not sure why Calzaghe would take it though. Can you imagine if he lost to a 40 year old Roy?

                      Roy, like most old fighters, seems to fight in spurts. Not saying it wouldn't work though because Hopkins fights in spurts too and almost beat Joe. Plus Roy is still a lot faster than B-Hop. Holyfield fights in spurts and managed to pull out a decent heavyweight run this time last year. It can be done.
