    Can Jones ever fight with the heavyweights again?

    I believe the only place safe enough for his chin might be at middleweight.

    You have to understand that he wasn't getting hit until he got old. He beat every other fighter he faced with his reflexes, including Sugar Bernard Hopkins.

          WRONG! Glen Johnson's power was not the factor for Jones going down and out, it was the accumulation of punches.

          Infact the heavyweight division would possibly be the safest for Roy at the moment, If he steps in with an opponent who is slow, which is very common at heavyweight these days.

            With 2 devestating knockouts that he just went through i think he should just stay retired...the last Ko by Johnson did not look too pretty...at first it looked like Roy might have been seriously injured.

              Im an avid Roy hater, Most of the time but when I seen him on the canvas, my thoughts were "ohh **** is he ok" I thought something was seriously wrong with him and it actually upset my stomach a bit....To add more gas on the fire, The 2 shots that put Roy down wasnt even devastating and the last left hook I believe was on his shoulder and upperarm and he just fell over, it was more like a shove....Roy was broken down, I totally agree Roy doesnt need to come back to the ring for ANYTHING!

                I was never a huge Roy fan myself...can't say I hated him though. Either way I never want to see a fighter get hurt in the ring no matter how much of an ******* the guy is. Fighters getting hurt in the ring is VERY bad for the sport...I dont wanna see boxing get banned here in the US like it is in Sweden. Yeah I agree he needs to quit.

                  Roy has one great one left in him, and dont worry it would take alot to ban boxing here, i think roy needs alot of rest before getting back in though
