If Roy Jones Defeats Bernard Hopkins, What Does That Do For His Legacy?

[Truth]

you really need to stop reaching for ways to save Roy's legacy, bud. this fight is certainly not the way. this is all about money. I bet Roy and B-Hop feel real lucky to have such easy to impress fans like yourself who will pay money to see this.

Hey Diego, I like Roy Jones. He is one of my favorites. I watch my favorites, its as simple as that. I know the fight came at a bad time. But I still would love to see RJ win his last fight.

I have no interest in seeing Roy Jones fight Bernard Hopkins. Whatever happens, I think it means nothing to eithers "legacy."

[!! AI-Holmes!!]

I don't think this fight will do anything to either's legacy.
If Hop. wins, will that open the posibilities for a third fight between these two, I hope not.

this fight is pointless like vargas vs mosely who ever wins will not have what it takes to take on a current champ. winning this fight will make b-hop happy for retirement. but if he wins he might want to avenge his other losses to tayler. we cant have that tho

I think it does just little for Roy's career. Hopkins is still a decent fighter.

Nothing at all for either fighter's legacy. As others have stated, too bad they didn't do it a few years ago. I'm going to get the show though, since it is more than likely the last fight for two great fighters, for sure both are destined for the hall of fame. I just hope that they both don't get too "cute" though and that there is some excitement.

Hopkins is still a good fighter but he has shown signs of really slowing down this year. This fight would of had an impact in 2002 but not now. Roy Jones is gunshy and Hopkins doesn't really get going until the last half of fight now.

I agree the fight is kind of too late as far as significance. But at the same time, it would like good on Roy's resume to have a second win over Hopkins. Hopkins isn't completley gone.

If Hop wins, maybe he'll take a run at Tarver for one last fight.
