When did Roy Jones become everyones *****?

[The Devil]

This is the same dude that used to talk about himself in 3rd person every 20 seconds, direct every commentary toward himself in some way, and used to dog anyone and everyone within 3 weight classes of his own.

Now the guy is morphing into George Foreman praising all the underdogs and kissing the asses of everyone from John Ruiz to James Toney to Tarver and Johnson.

Is the guy just kowtowing for his commentator gig, or has he been ion deep therapy and/or on Zoloft?

Maybe after getting knocked cold twice on the trot has made him appreciate other fighters skills a little bit more

[!! Mr. Soprano]

KO 1 - Could be accidental... everyone gets caught
KO 2 - It's called a Reality Check! LOL

The first time I saw that picture in your avatar I laughed so hard a squirt of piss ruined my favorite boxers.

Damn its about time someone else relized what I have been saying for years. Jones is so arrogant. always speaks in third person and even recently he still finds some way to throw comments in about himself. Remember Toneys win over Ruiz when they were discussing boxers who come in with chiseled bodies and how Toney was not one of them? Remember Jones "Toney is not going to come in chiseled like an Evaynder Holyfield or a Roy Jones" Every single commentary he finds a way. What he needs to be saying is "no one gets KTFO by two nobodies, whose careers I out on the map, besides Roy Jones." OR "you know I have seen boxers get KTFO but when Tarver hit me I was actually watching my own fight from the first row of seats."


Anyway I think that Jones simply wants to fit in as a good commentator and he wants to have a long career as a commentator. You have to morph into someone that the people love or at least the people at HBO love. He feels that by doing this he is doing such. I think he will try one more fight against b hop and then just retire and sit on his commentating gig and rake in easy money that you dont have to get beat the hell out of to get.

Haha yeah I remember that. He mentioned something about just because your not in a ferrari doesn't mean you can't win the race. In other words he has a Ferrari body. What a ****.

This is definitely a possibility. Being in the losers bracket may have humbled him a bit. Too bad those knockouts couldnt have happened to him several years ago. But when you fight retired cops and guys who box part time and work part time in the movie theatre what do you expect?

Not really, hes a fighter, and hes proud of himself, hes accomplished alot, more than any of us on this board in his respective field, he has every right to feel that way and i dont blame him, because id probably be the same way if i made a living beating the **** out of people, and i only failed at it 2 times in my whole life.
