    Roy Jones was awful last night.

    Normally he is spot on, but last night he was laughably biased.

    Every time he said something he was completely contradicted by the action in the ring.

    Can you give specific examples when you though he was awful?

    I just watched the fight and he seemed ok to me.

    Roy even remembered 'the other guy' name lol

      Comparing Bradley to Tim Tebow lol.

      Comparing Bradley's right to Provodnikov's (complete mismatch).

      He tried making out that Provodnikov was punched in like the 3rd round saying his punches had lost their steam (10 seconds later Bradley almost gets put on his ass).

        At the start of one of the rounds he said this is Tim's kind of fight after Bradley was nearly killed the round before .

        A few others too that i can't remember...

          he was right about that. spot on in fact.

          he wasnt talking about the round before, he was talking about the present round where bradley came out boxing and moving as opposed to standing and trading like the round before when he got hurt.

          that indeed is bradleys kind of fight (boxing and moving). roy was making the point that bradley was adjusting, not talking about the fight as a whole.

              As a fighter--I was a big Roy Jones fan. But he was super bias last night, I agree. He offers some great insight, but more often than not--he's off. I mean watch the PAC/Marquez fight; each time Marquez drops him Roy says something bias towards Pacquiao right before. His bias, and lack of perspective really bummed me out last night. He's better than that.

              I think Bradley is a tough dude, and i dig Joel Diaz. I do feel that Tim's luck is going to run out if he fights Some of these top tier welterweights. Fun fight. But man Roy had it wrong

                He was openly biased that's for sure. I did not agree with most of what he said either. Towards the end of the telecast when referring to provodnikov he said "whatever his name is" I was laughing so hard.

                    He was very biased last night but he's usually terrific. Chalk it up as an off-night.
