Roy Jones Jr, Bernard Hopkins Trade Words Over Rematch

[Jone2ts]

The lacy being shot argument can also be met with Pavlik was always a bum and is just now fully showing it. I thought Pavlik lost the second fight to taylor and felt bernard won both with taylor. Jones Hopkins will be a good fight, for all we know they hyping this so when both have CW belts they can have a full blown mega money rematch anyway. the fight is still legitimate though is a fact.

[Easy-E]

Jones is a riot.

This means nothing, but is an interesting bit of info. The only people to have beaten Jeff Lacy have also beat BHop. So to say Lacy means nothing may be a tad harsh.

That's not what I meant. Jones is not in a position to fight for a real title or moving up the p4p list because he beat Lacy.

[VipersThunder]

Bhop seems negotiating seriously here, and that RJ making it for fun! Bhop might be not in the mood for fun that's why he left them. And I don't know if RJ is the one cowering here because he seems lack of seriousness on Bhop serious offer.

It is Roy Jones cowering. He's talking about ****** **** he knows can never happen.

Agreed. I just wish there was a little more middle ground on these boards it seems as if everything is always all or nothing.

I'll agree with the latter part of your statement, if/when they both get Cruiswerweight titles the fight will make a lot more sense and will actually be relevant as far as standings/rankings go. I hope that happens.

I dont disagree with any of those points, but Lacy has only lost to top notch fighters so to say a win over him means **** is incorrect. He was beaten by those said fighters much worse than BHop was, but hes only being beat by fighters with the ability to beat an ATG. I dont think in any way shape or form Roy is back, but his performance was impressive nonetheless.

The man almost lost to Manfredo who just got bulldozed by Bika. Lacy would lose to any top SMW or lightheavy.

So now you're comparing the Lacy win to the Pavlik win?

How the **** can Lacy be compared to Pavlik? Pavlik is undisputed and beat THE best fighter in his division when he was given the chance, and has destroyed every MW contonder or champion he facced. Lacy was a paper champ and held a trinket until he faced the best guy in his division and got sonned. Why compare a linear champ to a paper champ. It's like comparing JMM to Valero.

And let's not forget he nearly lost and nearly got KTFO to Mendoza .

Anyone remember when lacy had to TACKLE the man just to avoid going down? That was horrible to watch at the time, lacy was getting pounded badly.
