    it was tough watching this fight from the begining, age has caught up to roy jones. the fight though couldnt have had a better winner ,johnson has worked hard and finally has his dues.roy jones was a great fighter and had a great career that has guaranteed hall of fame status. i believe he should retire and feel proud of his accomplishments.this fight reminded me of ali's final days as a fighter like the berbick and holmes matches.its sad to see jones go but there is always someone next to take his spot.
    Don't kid yourself 90% of boxing is mental...Roy was afraid, I recognized the look right away.

      I don't like Jones and I don't give a **** about him or his career.
      I just want to see him retire and stay retired.

          Roy Jones looked much like he did in Tarver 1 and 2. Its obvious that he cant make the light heavyweight weight anymore. You could tell right from the start that Roy was running low in the stamina department. As for the KO it wasn't that hard of a shot, and it landed high on the head above his left ear. Yet he went down hard. I think Roy must have had a concusion after Tarver 2. It seems that once you get a concusion, they become more and more frequent. I think Roy should retire for his own health. I hope his manager will talk him into it. It will be hard for Roy to retire, especially since he's only one win from 50. It was hard to watch him go down so hard. I think bouncing up and down with weight took its toll on his body. It is indeed a sad day for boxing.

                Just like Tito will be against Mayorga.
                Tito has to remember that he can't hide behind the ref and his dad can't be in the ring with him.
