    He's done. Don't talk about Roy not being done. It's ****** for him to keep fighting. A Roy Jones you can hit is not Roy Jones. It's somebody else. And that guy shouldn't keep fighting. Tarver would have put him into the ER tonight.

        Delahoya actually believed in his chances up until about halfway thru round 5. Roy was afraid from the get-go. Look when he first got into the ring he was so crazed he tried to lay a team style "touch'em up" to a complete stranger! I knew right then he was troubled...

          Let's say that Jones was aware that he had a weak chin from the start of his career. Shouldn't he get props for figuring out a way to protect his weakness? If he had the skills to hide this weakness for 48 fights & millions of dollars before someone figured it out, he is one smart SOB.

          He gets props from me.

          It's like Royce Gracie (sp?) using Brazilian Jui Jitsu & kicking everyone's ass until everyone caught on. He'll probably get his ass kicked now, but will still go down as a legend.

                  Who would have done different. If I had a record like that and I was able to toy with my opponents for years and years, heck ya I'd get overconfident and my ego will boost up. This goes the same for everyone. Your winnning all yer fights, what do you think your suppose to think. You da best? Fo sho! What teh **** else would you think. The guy had a big ego because he was human like you and me.

                    No that would pretty much make him a fraud. Why would a fraud get props?

                      Despite what his record says, Johnson's not a C-level fighter. Particularly as of late. I saw his "draw" with Clinton Woods and he whooped that boy's ass
