'sup Dean? Glad you're not retired.



I'm sure your condition would hinder you from participating in a championship fight wouldnt it?

Well as long as I did not fight with my eyes closed!hehe that is just the balance part though. I cannot even run anymore due to my accident. Both my knees have been totally reconstructed as well as my right hip. I have more metal in me than bones now!LOL

Ill be the one to say it*** it

Roy is just making excuses for why he looked so ****ty and you all took it
hook line sinker!

WELL roy at least now you can stay retired and not tarnish your legacy any more than you did

At the end point of Roy Jones Jr.'s 21-year boxing career that spanned four weight divisions, he took some big hits and suffered two vicious knockouts at the hands of Antonio Tarver and Glen Johnson. Now, at age 42, Jones is attempting to fix the damage caused by the punches that caught him in the last couple of years.

Damn Roy, I don't wanna read stuff like that

This is a tough sport guys, and this is the price that some have to pay.

Just stop with the coward bull**** huh ?

There are no cowards in this sport, just fighters who are happy to settle for less. And they are not named Roy.

What makes financially secured fighters continue for years after discovering braindamage?

Ridiculous.

That being said one can only hope that the damage can be cured, but I have the feeling that it's just a way for a schrewd businessman to relieve Jones and others for some cash.

That crossed my mind too.

I might look into this.

If that's the case, why is he getting treatment for it? As bad as Roy got rocked, espcially since the Johnson KO was only a few months after the Tarver KO, I don't doubt he had issues.

as floyd said, "theres nothing cool about taking punishment" these boxers better learn defense

[KILLA RIGHT]
