Lets say Roy fights well one last time, what in your mind does that do for his overall standing in boxing history? In my opinion it has to do somthing, B-Hop is still a good fighter. Whats your take on Roy Jones, Bernard Hopkins and how this fight will play out?
If Roy Jones Defeats Bernard Hopkins, What Does That Do For His Legacy?

It barely does anything for either legacy
it does more for Hopkins to win than for Jones to win...but again, barely for eitherComment

I think for Bernard at least he avenges his defeat from years ago, and goes out on a high against someone that is still a quality fighter and a heavier fighter at that. For RJJ, if he wins he shows he is still a quality fighter (let's not forget, Hopkins could have been given the decision in both fights against Taylor, still be regarded p4p champ and still undisputed middleweight champ) as he had enough to beat Hopkins. I dont think this is a bad fight at all, certainly a better one than I expected either man to take.Comment

Beating Hopkins proves nothing and is meaningless. Has nothing to do with Hopkins..I love B-Hop.
If anyone says this fight means anything, they are lying themselves. It means only $ for both. I've already said it, but this fight is a joke.Comment
