    He said himself that he didn't have the hunger to fight, and I think that's what the biggest problem was last night.

    At any rate, you're right, what Roy has done will not be forgotten.
    No he must have had the hunger, Roy just said that. Remember Jones asked for this fight not Tarver.

      I know, but... We've all had it: things we really want, or want to do, then we get there, or we get what we want, and we don't want it anymore. It's like those old Chevy commercials where the guys got to the rock formation and were going to climb, then they say, "let's go climb that rock," it was like that, I think.

      Maybe he really was bested by Tarver, but I'd like to think that should Jones have thrown more, he would have won.

        I hear you but the thing is Roy didn't look bad. He didn't look old and shot, not to me at least. But hey thats way it goes, I am just happy no one got seriously hurt.

          What surprised me was not only did he get cracked a good shot but he kept coming forward.I thought he was playing possum abit and I think Tarver did too as he backed off some.Roy had a weird ass look on his face when he came off the ropes.
