    all except Viloria
    was so happy when he beat Marquez, thought it was his time
    his inconsistency is frustrating as hell to watch
    Viloria can't keep momentum more than a few fights at a time
    but sans Tamara, he's only been beat by pretty good guys
    he can still recover and be a champion again

        Juan Manuel Lopez-No, he's still young and could do some things, nothing great, but he's a good action fighter, just don't match him up with elites, he'll be okay.

        Danny Green-YES

        Roy Jones-HELL YES

        Paul Spadafora-He's just fighting club fighters in Pittsburgh. Don't care what he does.

        Vitali Klitschsko-Only if his heart isn't in it anymore, he still seems like he has more to give.

        Brian Viloria-Not yet, need to see how he looks in his next fight.
        Terrible sig, but good post.

            Jones really is perplexing.

            I think I am right in saying that he has not made a mess of his financial affairs, he's achieved the wins and belts that assure him ATG status and I've not read anything to suggest that he has an unhappy domestic life.

            And he always comes across as an intelligent man who evaluates things and knows his own mind. So why the fights?

            Is it just because he loves boxing so much that he's prepared to lose and take some lumps or maybe he's looking at B-Hop's ability to still upset the odds in his dotage and is competing on that front?

            Don't know the answer to be honest. But I do know Jones should have quit after Calzaghe beat him and showboated against him (surely a bad sign) and that he's taking way too many shots.
