    Hopkins is going to one-punch KO Roy with a single right. After working his body bit by bit as Jones sits on the ropes. This is gonna be brutal, Reed.

      Bernard is going to look incredibly slow in this fight, and it will prove that he always had the style to beat him. Roy isn't going to sit on the ropes because Bernard won't make him.. it's not his style, and he isn't going to change it after 20 years in the game.

        You don't have to make Roy go to the ropes. He just goes there now.

          No that isn't true.. he may at times unless you are stalking and pressuring him he isn't going too. He knows he has a speed advantage over Bernard and he is going to use it.

            Debating me on this is useless.

            Just to let everyone know.

            There's nothing I can do about it, it just comes out of me.

              He had a speed advantage over Green too. Green threw like two punches and Roy was up on the ropes.

                Green was coming forward nonstop and pressuring him... Like I said.

                  Roy Jones starts a fight going backward. So Green came forward because...he had no choice? When was the last time you saw ROY come forward?

                    In th Sheika fight.. and the Lacy fight when he chose to do so. He fought off the ropes because the ropes were working for him the Lacy fight. Why fight in the center of the ring when he was whooping Lacy off the ropes? Why waste energy?... and the Green fight lasted 90 seconds, you can't really use that as an example of how the fight was going to go.
