    Seems like Roid got bored of gossiping with Porter and Tarver around the table and training his wannabe Eubank Jr. He need new adventures. I understand him.

        After that pitiful, frightened, avoiding exchanges about with Tyson, I never want to see him fight again

          RJJ couldn't draw flies in his prime. No one is going to pay to see this meaningless fight.

            Roy vs Belfort would seem a better match.

            Well, I'm glad Roy and Mike did clash, but a pity it wasn't more like semi exhibition and partly serious. If I had to score that bout, then I'd say Iron Mike won.

            Roy Jones was an amazing athlete, whether he did all the fundamentals the best way or not. A great win outboxing heavyweight John Ruiz, and other notable career highlights.

            Once he came back down to light heavyweight, just wasn't the same. He did edge a decision over Tarver, but took more punishment than we ever saw. Then the rematch, and another loss to Glen Johnson, and that was basically it, although he did score a big knockdown of Calzaghe.

            Worth a mention that he did easily outbox Trinidad, when Tito came back for that one fight.

              Roy is getting Holyfielded unless the other guy agrees to do the **** fake fighting that Tyson did against Roy.

                You're in luck because Roy might actually die in this one if the other guy is taking it seriously.

                  Lol he fought tito at 170 in 2008 almost 3 years after Tito looked horrible against Winky. Both fighters were wayyy past their prime in that fight and Tito was also way above his natural weight class. I wouldn't count that fight as one of Roy's best wins.

                    Some might say, Jones Jr. can do whatever he wants to make money. While I agree with that, at his age, does he really want to risk further health injuries? He's had some brutal KO losses and it'll only get worse if he continues.

                      At this point, Roy is an addict. He can't quit the game and it's bad for his health. Anyone supporting this, is basically enabling him.

                      This **** is really sad.
