        Yet it was a career defining moment for a supposed ATG in JC. Funny how that happens ehh? Ahh well, JC won and nobody can be mad. Roy was gone, as you said, long before last Sat night.

          Precisely what I was thinking. Reminds me of my own dad.

              Why can't people accept that Jones Jr is finished?

                For the same reason why we have some people awaiting another Tyson comeback.



                I'd love to see old Roy in prime form again but I can't fool myself into thinking he'll be back having seen more than enough of other great fighters go out the same way.

                Atleast Roy went out against a top pound for pound ranked fighter (unless he decides to fight on), seeing JL Castillo get beat up by an average fighter on Wednesday Night Fights was a sad sight.

                Hopefully it won't get to that with Jones.

                  Jones Sr was loving that phone call.

                      part of Roy's problem is that once he got away from his father he never allowed anyone to hold any authority over him,... it's bad to be your own boss, manager and trainer,.. his corner looked like a bunch of Yes Men,.. guys afraid to tell a shot fighter he doesn't have it anymore.
