Is Roy Jones Jr. done for good?

In a recent interview that wasnt on HBO, he said fighting isnt in his agenda. So for now he is retired but a comeback is possible, but for now and lets hope that he is retired.

I would say he has one good fight left in him. Ofcourse his opponent would have to be carefully picked or we might have another Johnson incident. HAHA!

He should come back and beat tarvers and johnsons asses then retire hes to great to go out like that.

I agree. I'd be a pity to see such an amazing fighter fall from grace so quickly and just fade into nothing. I mean, it's sad that most of the great fighters out there end their career on a down note. (ie, Ali, Holyfield, Norton, ect.)

I agree he should come back and avenge those losses

it's so possible hate or love him dont take nothing away from him though hes on a different level the tarver and johnson hes just older so he cant rely on his speed and agility to save him he has to box now.

"He should come back and beat tarvers and johnsons asses then retire hes to great to go out like that".

It'll happen like that: he will wait while Johnson and Tarver retire, then come back for a few wins and then retire to great out.

Isn't this obvious that his "greatness" was based purely on his speed? As he is older and lost his speed he cannot defend himself from being hit so he can only box rely only on his boxing skills and power (which are not gone as fast as speed and reflex). While he lost 2 last times his skils, power and especialy his chin seems to be very questionable.
