    Why did Roy Jones not retire are the first Tarver fight??

    was it ego? tarver calling him out?

    i cant believe it was money....

    i dont get it - im a big fan of roy jones. He shud have retired then the way lennox lewis did when he realised in klitshcko he had a bigger challenge then he ever thought....

    I don't know, ask him.

    We can only assume that Jones felt the pressure to prove it wasn't a fluke.

      I just sent him an e-mail and this is what he replied, word for word:


      Hey Tony,

      Nice to talk to you again. Well the reason why I didn't retire after the first Tarver fight is simple, THUG LIFE! I hope to talk to you again, peace!
