      Kinda like Joe struggling with Sakio Bika right?

      Roy said he wanted to go the whole 12.. It was like a sparring session

        man, can't wait for this fight.

        My 2 favourite fighters.


        Will be something special, no matter how well Jones performs.


        Hope Jones performs well, every great fighter has "one last fight" in em.

            I really cannot see how anyone gives Joe C. a chance to be honest. He will have to rewrite his whole style of boxing to win IMO. Lets be Frank here, Joe cannot come in reckless with those smacks and not expect to get smashed in the process. How the hell did Joe get to be #2P4P anything? Jeff Lacy ain't ****, and I knew he wasn't going to last well before he fought Joe. Lacy has/had KO power to save his azz a time or 2, but as I recently seen on ESPN, Lacy got his ass kicked and good by a journeyman, getting staggered, running-n-the works. Lacy=ALL HYPE! Keesler was tagging Joe, but he acted like he didn't want to win, not enough F-HIM in him to get the job done when the pressure is on. More quality wins under Keesler belt and it would've been a different fight, he just needed more urgency and less holding. I knew B-hop wasn't going to win either just because he starts off to slow at everything, and when you got a guy running at you like a windmill, a guy that moves as slow a B-Hop can only get one counter off at a time and still damn near won with the few counters he did land. Roy is a different animal, period. Yeah Roy has been on the mat twice, but when you are trying to make history those things happen. I see this happening, Joe will find out in the 1st round that Roy is way to fast and he isn't there to be hit, and no Jones still doesn't get hit alot, even now, though the Joe C. fans will try to make you believe Roy is standing there getting bashed. Not so. A couple of counters to Joe's jaw and ribs will show you a changed man, just as Hopkins changed Joe too, that was the 1st round when he went down. That 1st round knockdown knocked confidence out of Joe as you see the punch stats were very low for Joe. Hard counters make you think twice. Roy will use slick defense and lay back, maybe take a few body punches that wont hurt and let Joe build his confidence up. After Joe thinks hey I can do this, he will come in and get caught with all kinds of counters, Roy leading and hitting him when he wants to, even if it's not the young Roy, you aint gonna come in there just slapping him around, period. I believe it will go the distance though, only because Roy is always willing to show the fans how much **** he can do to somebody in a 12 round bout. Nov 8th, you will see why Joe stayed across the pond all these years, cause he has always known he can't come over to the states throwing that bull**** and expect to last. If Joe was always fighting in the US he would have had his ass kicked a long time ago. Back in the day Montell Griffin would have smashed JOE.

                  Jones looks really old when he raises his hands you can tell he is nearly 40
