Roy Jones to fight on...

[AKATheMack]

It's not possible to diminish his legacy at this point... nobodys going to point to these fights as to why he wasn't that good in the first place.



Just because he didn't make any money off that fight doesnt mean he's broke?

What kind of reasoning is that?

You didnt know Roy was living from paycheck to paycheck?

[RL_GMA]

C'mon Roy........smh

[THE REED]

Is that what people are saying? Or are you just making the argument that people know he's past his prime so these fights don't hurt or help him?

Both.........

It is actually.

There might come a time where he'll only be remembered for these end of the line losses rather than his heavyweight win or the Toney fight.

Thats only if he keeps fighting and losing to fighters he'd finish off with ease 10 years ago.

I do hope hes just thinking of retiring with a win back home, it would be a good end to his career.

I never understood why more boxers don't retire at their peak rather than stick around and put their health at risk when they don't need to. It's easier said than done but with what he accomplished he should have been able to call it a day alot earlier. Middleweight champ, Super Middleweight champ and Undisputed LHW champ. He has nothing to gain by sticking around.

Only to people who don't know **** about boxing... and if that's the case, it doesn't even matter.

By who? When I think of Ali I think of Foreman and Frazier not Leon spinks and Larry Holmes. Evander is more memorable for his fights with Bowe than for his fight with Larry Donald. Thats crazy to think that anyone would judge a fighter based on how they performed 10 years past their best.
