Comments Thread For: Roy Jones Jr, Bernard Hopkins Talk April 3 Rematch

[-Reflexes-]

He fought Marquez and made 20 million? The lightweight champ.

Trust me, always dollars to me made.

Chavez JR.. MONEY.
Amir Khan in 2 years... MONEY.


Money will keep him in the game longer.



I agree... If Ornelas can land on Bernard... believe me Roy will find his spots.

Same goes with Bernard on Roy though.. will be interesting.

I'll agree with the Chavez and Khan thing or maybe Alvarez in Mexico.. But none of those guys will come close to beating him. For big pay days I could see that though.

The thing about Hopkins is that he is not aggressive and doesnt look to go all out and Blitz his opponent. Hes still a smart fighter. He will look for sports and openings. Hopkins will be 50 in a few years he wil look his age against Roy IMO.

Hopkins fought a very offensive fight against Orrnellas and his workrate was higher than it wa sin years. Hopkins will not get hit much at all, I was confused at how Calzaghe looked like Whitaker slipping all of Jones shots. His offense is also lacking these days.

He wont try to tee off Jones. Jones even a shot one is light years better then Ornelas.

Roy is still one of the fastest 175 Pounders in the world. he will hit Hopkins.

He fought offensive cuz he could.

Roy maybe WAY past prime but hes still a better fighter than Enrique Ornelas.

Bernard will definitely get hit.

Roys punches are going to be fast for a 45 year old, believe it.


Roys punch output in the lacy fight was the most he threw on average since Tarver I.

He was averaging 70 punches a round and he was the first to TKO Lacy... it isnt THAT bad Bully.

Hopkins last fight is the only time I have seen him get hit clean a few tives in a while. Jones will not land much at all. Also Jones is better than Ornellas but nowhere near as tough. Hopkins today is still one of the top 2 defensive fighters in boxing. Fast hands mean very little if you don't have the legs to maneuver yourself to use those hands.

So Ornelas can land but Roy cant?

Thats ridiculous really.

By the time fight night rolls around Bernard will have fought a blown up MW in the last 17 months.

17.

45 1/2 years old.

Roy fought 4 times in a year.

And even though Roy lost to Danny Green, lets not OVERRATE what happened.

He was knocked down, he got back up and finished on his feet he wasnt knocked out cold.



Roy will be a harder fight than you are making it out to be I promise you that.

It is what it is, much respect to Jones, but he is done.

If there IS ONE single elite fighter Roy could still beat.

Its Hopkins.. because of his age.


We shall see.. either way I am just glad the fight is happening so Roy doesnt have to retire on danny **** green

I want to see a Danny Green rematch. I hope Roy does not retire after the Hopkins fight.

Then Hops shouldnt be fighting him.
