    Just saw Jones/Tarver 1 again...

    When I first heard that Roy was gonna fight Tarver again for the third time, my first speculation was that Roy is gonna get knocked out or beat easily by Tarver. But now I am not quite sure. I just their first fight, and I noticed that Tarver is also not the same fighter as he was at that time. In his second fight with Jones, Tarver did absoutely nothing until he threw that left hand. In both the Johnson fights, he was able to throw combinations only because Johnson just came straight at him, and if Roy still have his speed, Tarver won't be able to do that. I guess what I'm saying is...everyone is saying that Roy is shot, but I also think that Tarver aint the same fighter as he was before and that people should give a chance for Roy to win.

      Don't count Roy out just yet, he might see this fight as his last chance to redeem himself, he's coming out with everything.

        Yeah, but the thing about your dad is that he has the ability to throw these wicked left hands if he is given a chance to time them.

        He made huge swelling on Roy's face with this shot.

          Tarver's best fight in my opinion would be to try to scare Roy early with pressure.

                yea man, i wasnt a roy jones fan but after he got koed, ive been rooting for him to come back. i know he wont comeback in his prime but i still think he has enough in the tank to beat tarver and johnson.

                  the redness on Jones face wasnt from punishment it was from him being on the ropes and covering up and gettin hit in the gloves, his laces on his glove did most of that redness
