    Roy Jones Jr... this saturday... on PPV... REALLY?? PPV???

    oh boy... i didn't even know RJJr was fighting..much less on PPV


    Heavyweight champ Klitchko is gonna fight on ESPN same day...
    but senior citizen RJJ is on PPV??

    It just feels wrong to pay anything to watch a 40 year old man fight on tv

    is anyone actually planning to buy this thing?

    promoters really need to stop this kinda crap because boxing can't afford to lose any more credibility with its real fans these days.

    I was always a big fan of RJJ... but really man, hang it up and don't mess with your own legacy like this... and other old school guys do the same.

      Its sad to say, but this sport is becoming a joke with all of these B.S ppv's. Fighters and promoters seem to be only concerned with easy paydays regardless if the fans approve of the fight or not. This is why UFC is fastly becoming more and more popular.

        Is someone going to cap it? I'll have to avoid this place like the plague for the whole weekend so that I can blindly downloading Vitali and Jones later on and watch them with a friend.

          I hope two things happen on this card

          1. Roy gets ko'd very brutally.
          2. He does less than 5k ppv buys.

          That should put an end to RJJ ever getting a meaningful fight again.

            I think he is well past the "meaningful fight" stuff...

            i mean even this fight he is fighting a guy with 8 losses and the undercard is pretty much all MMA fights.

            ya... time to hang em up.

              He should've retired six years ago.
