Roy Jones can still do alot of things. he looked bad in the Calzaghe fight for two reasons speed and work rate....The cut above his eye didn't help him none either. But if he has speed advantage and the other fighter has a low work rate and is not that big of a puncher than he has a good shot at winning. he is still tough as nails and has power in both hands. His speed although is not what it used to be is still better than most fighters he faces. he can take punishment to the body. His chin although some call it China is not as bad as you may think. Look at the guys who Knocked him out Johnson (33 Ko's) and Tarver (19 Ko's) I haven't seen anyone else hurt him really.....Lefty
This is very sad. Jones is not suffering money issues. He has money. He may be suffering from what many great fighters suffer from in the end. They miss the limelight and attention. They have it all at one point, then lose it very quickly and it is very hard for them to readjust. It is a craving for them and it is very hard for them to let go.
It may also just be Jones the businessman trying to make a few more million off the sport. Jones is a very smart guy so if he is continuing fighting for any reason, I hope it is this one.
60/40 he kicks our financial asses He knows we will watch him fight
It's not often I don't know what to say, but I don't know what to say. I loved Roy and still do. Would like to see him go out in glory. If that means taking on all of the aforementioned, then so be it.
