Roy is not done

[Bhopreign]

Thats what happens when you chase the money, happened to Marquez.

[RagingTheBull]

He is done. period.

[MARKBNLV]

He's about as shot as a fighter can be. The major things that he has lost are his legs and his reflexes. He can't move nor can he lean away from punches as he used to.

The Glen Johnson and Danny Green KO's were both a result of this. Against Tarver too he was backed against a corner but instead he was countered by a punch he didn't see coming. Against Green and Johnson, he did see the punches coming but could do nothing about it.

I agree his legs are not what they once were but he was never exactly super quick on the feet i believe confidence is the main issue, of course he is not the roy of 5-10 years ago but he still has some of the tools and i disagree about his reflexes in he is just scared to throw and get hurt i am not saying he is a world beater anymore, but i think he could be a champion again at some capacity.

nah he's done man
That punch didn't appear to have any pepper on it... then again I wasn't in the ring with him

I have been watching Jones fights all day and the only difference from when he fought toney till now is that when he throws his jab he doesnt throw a combo then move,i also noticed that he gets caught in the corner a lot the diference between then and now is he does not have the confidence to throw his combos and move like he did his entire career if the man could just gain his confedence back i think we would still see a champion level jones.

honestly i think he caught greens wrist to his ear it seemed like a belting blow. plus it was a bad stoppage and i said that before bernard did they should have had more respect for a great like him.

also by the way i am a hopkins fan not a jones fan i just appreciate great talent.

Then the man should train harder i have heard multiple times he takes it easy in camp which as a young fighter he could get away with. green k to you and the great a good points.

Roy need's to hang 'em up. Plain and simple.

Jones is a washed up, punch drunk has been. If he continues to fight, he will suffer injuries so severe there will be no coming back from.

[Shinerbop]

You can make all the excuses in the world to "explain" why Jones lost and say he could of done this, or that, or if only he didn't do this or that.

The fact of the matter is, is he got whooped in one round. Nothing, would of changed the outcome of that fight.

I see a lot of posters in total denial about the reality of Jones.

They don't like what actually happened, so they go into this close minded mindset of denial and delusion and use their imaginations to say what they would of liked to happen.

Delusion: in everyday language, is a fixed belief that is either false, fanciful, or derived from deception

Denial: is a defense mechanism, in which a person is faced with a fact that is too uncomfortable to accept and rejects it instead, insisting that it is not true despite what may be overwhelming evidence.

Jones is finished and will never be elite again.
