Comments Thread For: Mike Jones Talks Munoz Knockout, Facing Pacquiao Soon

[fastblack]

mike jones is terrible has no following and is average. there is no way this clown is a top fighter. Jones is an 8 round fighter on espn maybe. how much of a joke boxing has become letting these no talent bums like Jones even be considered for anything?? sad Jones stinks.

Jones is still an 8 rnd fighter that needs exposure terribly...munoz was nothing but an out of shape restaurant cook/waiter from KC...

Jones says he wants to end the year strong. so he may be looking to possibly beat one of the top 10 welterweights; thus making a pacquiao fight next year seem a bit more legitimate.

I remember not so long ago Mike Jones is a highly touted young fighter who has high hopes and anyone who matches up to him in fantasy fights don't stand a chance.

Now pitted against Pac and all of a sudden he's not ready, too raw, yada yada.

I also remember Pac being lambasted by stans saying he don't fight african-american boxers, and boxers who are young upstarts who pose a threat.

Now these newsfeeds from Arum and Jones that Pac is next for MJ, and stans still have reason to discredit!

Let me get one thing out of the way, I like this match up and I hope it happens. Either Jones or Bradley vs Pacquiao. But I doubt it happens. I wish I am proven wrong next year though. Either of those two will do it for me[should they still be undefeated going in to the fight]. A poor performance by either, changes everything.


With that out of the way.

1. Mike Jones was a heavily touted young fighter, BEFORE his poor performance against Karras. Don't just ignore that. That's just an ignorant post. Mike Jones is no loner the talk of the town like he was. Maybe another good win against a top fighter will get people talking about him again.


2. Manny Pacquao has been accused of ducking and dodging the slick African American style of boxing. Shane Mosley is not a slick African American, Mike Jones is not a slick African American. People also ignore this. Bernard Hopkins accused Pacquiao of never fighting a slick fighter, and that is the truth. And if you can sit there and call Mosley a slick fighter or Jones a slick fighter, then you're an idiot. Mosley, Jones, Bradley aren't slick fighters. But i'll tell you one thing, Timothy Bradley and Mike Jones are fighters with a pulse, young fighters, undefeated, not worn out. And that's why I would like to see either of them facing Pacquiao. But I just don't see Pacquiao taking those fights. I hope i'm wrong though.

mike jones is terrible basically a joke. no talent cannot hit weak defense no hopes for anything just a hype job from the streets that belongs in the streets. Jones could be the worst american fighter in some time just terrible a joke.

There must be a three year difference in age of boxers fighting each other.
So there will be be no excuse that the the fighter is too old or too young.

Jones vs Cintron, Both are Top Rank so it can be made.

Real talk. Great suggestion right there.

Thats what I'm guessing too.

What did you think of the Cintron suggestion ?

It is hard enough to get good fights made now bro.

If they follow your suggestion..... no more old champions residing as the gatekeeper, no more old bull vs young lion matchups..... who would Hopkins fight, there are no 43yo's worthy of him?

Good point, but there has to be another way.
