    I agree Burner, I'm a big fan of Roy but what he did to Lacy wasn't right. Lacy is done as a fighter and couldn't do anything in there yet Jones felt the need to take the piss out of him non stop.

      I dont particullary like showboating in boxing. I bet Roy didnt like it when Calzaghe was doing it to him.

        You knew Lacy had it coming at the weigh-in when Roy shrugged his shoulders like he did against Vinny Paz. It was a great show yesterday but is anyone really surprised? Lacy, like Sheika, was tailor made. Put Roy in there against a fighter with some speed and he'll get caught more and be reluctant to throw back. I'm not sure he gets past Green but if he does, it means little at this point. He will lose to the elite without question. Regardless, he's still a pleasure to watch. I wish him luck in this final go-around but I can't help but think that his next loss could be damaging :/.

            he's an embarrassment to the sport! Wow! He beat lacy,trinidad & omar sheika.3 guys handpicked,smaller,well past their prime fighters.calazaghe beat his ass,so did tarver 3 times(1 was a bias win for jones),glen Johnson.trinidad was at his best at what 147? You jones fans are blind.he has always carefully selected his opponents.never wanted a rematch with Johnson,tried to beat tarver again & failed,never gave toney a rematch after toney beat jirov & jones beat ruiz,never gave Hopkins a rematch...never took any risks earlier in his career across the sea in Europe when there were good fighters there.he is a fraud who fooled all his fans for 20years.it's always been about $ so why not danny green in Australia? He'll destroy him with little trouble but when there are guys like Dawson,glen Johnson,Hopkins,& several other big fights at his weight class out there...he won't showboat vs Hopkins or Johnson or Dawson.he carefully selects his opponents like he always did.he's a coward & should go do dancing with the stars.he's a disgace!

                Calzaghe still show boated in his fight with Jones even when Roys eye was literally hanging out.

                  I am happy now, for what Calzaghe did to Roy Jones. Calzaghe clowned on a shot version of RJJ. And what does Roy go and do, clown on a shot Lacy.

                      LOL you guys always find a way to downplay a fighter's victory.

                      Guys, we all know Roy isn't the Roy of 1998 who was revered as the best in the world. These are his last days and he's making the best of it while he still can.

                      You guys didn't expect Roy to be his flashy self? LOL c'mon..quit the bigotry already.
