    I didn't even think about that, this card being just one week before Showtime's huge PPV could be suicide. Especially if Roy is really all shot to hell like he looked vs. Johnson. I won't consider buying this unless I see some great training vids on RJJ in the weeks before the fight.

    Tarver better not be overconfident, which is very possible at this point. I think that's Roy's greatest chance, if Tarver undertrains due to complacence with his KO2 win last year...

    HBO is going to have to hype the hell out of this to steal buys from Corrales-Castillo II. This date may have been better off used for a regular broadcast, not PPV. They should have switched this date with the Sept. 24 Cotto card...

      Who really knows about this fight. I mean.....Roy beat Tarver convincingly the first time around, and Tarver hit him with a lucky punch the second time. Granted Roy's inactivity could play a big role in this.....but then again.

      Look at Tarver's punch output in his last fight with Johnson....that was ridiculous. He was letting his hands go..something he did not do in the first fight against Roy. Even if he doesnt find him as often, he still should eek out the victory based on his agressiveness. Then again, Roy could counter effectively, making this a pickem fight 50-50.

            jones

            i am so glad jones is going to take this fight. redemption is coming and then he can get that bum johnson and tear his ass up, and then maybe move up to heavy again. tarver caught him with a lucky punch and jones will prove it october 1.

            AND ONCE AGAIN UNDISPUTED LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE WORLD......ROY JONES JR.

            JONES BY TKO 4

              I doubt this will end with a knockout. I also doubt anyone of them will quit. My guess, SD Tarver, at the moment that is. I might change my mind when I see some Jones vids from his training.

                the last time Jones won by KO/TKO was against Clinton Woods, which was like 3 years ago. If Roy was to win this match, I highly doubt he's gonna win by KO/TKO. Most likely UD.

                  Your dad will win vs Jones, Jones is not the same fighter ever since your dad stepped up to him, I cant see your dad losing,
