    Tarver around 7. He's beaten Jones twice in my eyes(I think he's Jones' bogeyman!) and Jones ain't been active, is coming off two 1 punch ko's in a row and hasn't looked good since he beat Ruiz in 2003 whereas Tarver's had two solid 12 rounders with Johnson and looks no worse for it so I have a hard time making a case for Jones in this one, he'll need to turn the clock back a few years if he's to pull this one off.

      I'll give it till the 3rd rd when Tarver knocks him out again! Don't get me wrong, I'm a Jones fan and this sucks but it's gonna happen.

          My boxing instinct says that Roy Jones jr will win this fight. Tarver never respected Roy and Roy has something to prove to the world after his two consecutive defeats. Roy knows that he cannot lose this fight, otherwise it is bye-bye Roy. I think he will be more focused than the other two previous fight with Tarver. Besides this fights takes place in the backyard of Tarver, so revenge will be sweet. I go for Roy Jones jr.

            First off Roy won that first fight fight fans thought Tarver won because Roy sat on the ropes and let Tarver pound away. (many of those shots were blocked. And in Round 1 of Tarver VS Jones 2, Jones was making it look like Tarver would be easy work, then he gets caught. I dont doubt Roy is in deep water but if he is 100% focused and even brought his father back its gotta mean something. Many writers and people inside the camp are also saying Jones looks great, there is hope for RJJ fans.

              Jones will be hampered by age, punishement recieved, effects of 2 brutal KO's, and probably Parkinson's in it's early stage.

              Tarver is fresh as early ****.

              Tarver wins. End of the discussion.

              Jones may be good, but he's not superman.

                Tarver is 36 years old himself, so what's the different?

                  Tarver didn't turn pro till he was 29yrs old... Roy was already a multi-weight champion at that time.

                  Professional ranks are a LOT tougher than the amatuers.

                    Difference buddy?

                    Ever heard of Jones sleeping in the canvas for 30 minutes due to a KO? Man if you had a little common sense, it will dictate to you, those are near-death experiences, and fighters who went through that need to rest and retire for life, not fight again.

                    Jones may be suffering from an acute disease already. The Glen KO just looks horrific. Jones slept in the canvass for 30 minutes. It was just sick.
