That doesn't mean that Roy cannot beat the top fighters out there cuz I think he still has the capabilities to beat anyone, he just isn't nearly as good as he use to be. 40 Roy isn't nearly as good as 27 Roy but 40 Roy is still better than alot of the top fighters.
    thats how I see it. Not what he use to be, but still a pretty good fighter with talent.

      Jones may be past his prime but he is still a better boxer than Calzaghe will ever be, he will beat Calzaghe and make him look like the fighting windmill he is.

            Simply because I refuse to pick against him. Let's just say if my life depended on me tipping the correct outcome it might change. Just like in NRL footy tipping, I pick the Broncos every week regardless. I am loyal.

              Loyalty is a good thing, just don't use it for a blinder. It's ok to HOPE your favorite team, or favorite fighter, wins, just don't put money down on anything unless you're willing to use common sense to pick your winner.

                Come on. Be reasonable. He looked pretty good against Trinidad but it was still a competitive fight for eight rounds or so. The real Roy Jones has NO trouble whatsoever with Tito Trinidad moving up 15lbs and coming out of a 2 year layoff, yet after about 7 or 8 rounds it was a close fight. Roy pulled away eventually but for a while Tito was digging his body and pouring everything on. Roy was being hit.

                  I'm sure someone has said it but I think he's been able to hide the fact that he's either gotten slower, or his chin has gotten weaker, or a combination of both of those by fighting smaller guys that don't have the power to hurt him.

                  I think he'd be considered shot if he was still fighting hard hitting light heavies.
