    Hopkins: "No Interest in Jones Rematch, Roy Must Quit"

    Bernard Hopkins has no interest in staging a rematch with Roy Jones Jr. He sat ringside at New York's Madison Square Garden and watched Jones take a beating at the hands of Joe Calzaghe. Jones won a decision over Hopkins fifteen-years ago and there was hope by both that a rematch could happen at some point in 2009, but the rematch was riding on a Jones win. Hopkins thought Jones looked terrible, old and feels that retirement is in order. [details]

        Sad but true.

        I like the way he got his point across without belitting Roy or trying to insult him.

            Bhop is an *******. Bhop should fight RJJ and add to his legacy vs talking **** about the man that beat him twice. And RJJ would beat BHOP because Bhop has been beating on blown up Fighters like Jermain Taylor, Kelly Pavlik, Tito Trinidad, Winky Wright and so on. RJJ is like the Michael Jordan of boxing. Unfortunately he is The Jordan that played for the Wizards not the Bulls.

              i find this to be real classy by Hopkins. Hopkins doesn't want to take advantage of a shot Roy.

              Roy Jones Jr. was a middleweight Ali in the way he fought. But just like Ali, at this stage, he can't do what he use to do against top opponents.

              Its sad. Good to see bernard has respect for Roy.

                  He put that in quite a nice way. Well done Bernard.

                  Roy should become a promoter.
