    RJJ Interview: "BERNARD DOES NOT WANT TO MAKE THE FIGHT"

    He doesn't want to make it. It's just that obvious. I mean, it's nothing big to see. It's simple; Bernard does not want to make the fight. There it is. It's just that simple, you know? I mean, the main reason why he didn't want to make it back then, I understood later, was because he had to give Don King part of his money...Now he's mad because he's gotta pay Oscar, so he don't want to do a 50/50. Well, if he keeps giving his money to all these people and making it to where he can't make the fight, that's not my fault. That's his fault...And now that he sees I'm close to being back to myself, he definitely don't want to see me now," stated former multi-division champion Roy Jones Jr. as he shared his thoughts about the recent confrontation he had with Bernard Hopkins on the Calvin Murphy Show. You don't want to miss what else he had to say in this explosive interview as Jones speaks his mind about Hopkins, Golden Boy Promotions, the current state of boxing, Manny Pacquiao, Floyd Mayweather Jr., the likelihood of a future clash with UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva and much, much more.

    Jones is right. Hopkins saw a little sparkle in Jones's last perfromance, and now he doesn't want to fight. Even though I think Hopkins would win anyway..

        You're right - hopkins is scared of a 40 year old clearly shot roy jones and would rather fight young and in their primes chad dawson and/or adamek. Makes perfect sense!

          he could make more fighting Roy in one fight than he would vs Dawson & Adamek

          Dawson & Adamek arent PPV fights

          RJJ is a guaranteed PPV fight that will do GREAT....it will be a **** talking fest and maybe the best 24/7 ever


          clearly shot?

            I remember when Hopkins wanted it 7-8 years ago but Jones wanted the big share. At that time Jones thought Bernard was a nobody. Payback time Roy.

                Really? HBO isn't exactly jumping for joy to get this fight. Roy Jones last PPV did what? 30,000 buys?


                clearly shot?
                Yes, and anyone that doesn't believe so is living in denial. Don't be fooled by Jeff "LOL" Lacy and Omar Sheika.

                    Roy doesnt care about fighting B Hop...he is making more dough than B hop and has been making morre dough than B-Hop

                    B Hop doesnt want to fight Roy thats obvious ...but hed rather fight Adamek and make P Will come to 170??
