    Roy Jones Jr. To Heavyweight? For Evander Holyfield?

    Former four division Roy Jones Jr. (52-5, 38KOs) is not ready to walk away for good. In his last outing, he lost a shutout twelve round decision to Joe Calzaghe. Jones had said in several interviews that he may decide to make a return to the heavyweight division for a major fight. Jones won a dominant decision over John Ruiz in 2003 to capture the WBA heavyweight title. He vacated the title a few months later to make a return to light heavyweight. [details]

    sad to say but this fight is kind of embarrassing for our sport, it's going to get laughed at!!

    Oh well, hopefully it doesn't happen. Both fighters need to retire.

      I don't know about that.. In my opinion they should both pick an average opponent to win in their hometown looking good and then retire instead of keeping ****ing up their record.. It's not because they are like B-hop who keeps winning against top fighters even though he's almost 44 years old.. Those two are so shot as can almost be, but they are also both in my top 10 favourite fighters so I would hate for them to end up as McClellan or with a ****ed up record..

        The sooner Roy and Evander retire, the sooner they make it into the HOF and the sooner people can start remembering who they used to be.

            I wish both of these guys would give it up and retire already.

              I know Roy has had a fascination about fighting Holyfield, but this fight doesn't make any sense at all. Both need to retire.

                I agree, because people are actually picking a prime Roy lose to Calzaghe and in the fashion that he did in their last fight, its ridiculous. As for this fight, i don't think it will happen because Roy is not a ****** man by any means. Evander would put an end to Roy in 5 rounds max.

                  He made a downgrade. Before Peter lost to Vitali, Roy said he was going to challenge Peter after Calzaghe.

                    I like Roy, but that shows the mans lost it. Or just talking ****. To be honest I was kinda amazed Toney survived...twice.
