    one last time

    ok a big PPV event between B-Hopkins and Jones JR. their last fight in both of their careers, would anyone be interested in this card? i mean this can be Jones JR. last fight also be B-Hopkins last fight, they both fight and go off into retirement Hopkins last Loss was against Jones JR. in the middleweight division, Jones JR. can retire as the Undisputed Middleweight Champion. 2 of the best Middleweights of the 90's. IMO this would be bigger than the Hopkins/dlh fight

    Roy has officially put this card possibility on life-support.

      i doubt it would be bigger than the DLH fight now that roy has lost twice in a row, im a huge jones fan but i dont think going down in weight will help him in the ring. the cobra reflexes and speed have diminished to much

        RJJ would be better off fighting DLH.

          Roy would have to schedule, and then defeat a legitimate opponent to justify the hype for an event of this magnitude.

          He's shown in the past that he's not willing to do that.

          Hopkins-Jones should have happened as soon as Hopkins KO'd Trinidad.

          There's little public interest right now because there are SERIOUS concerns about Roy's current skills. He's won maybe 3 rounds since the controversial win over Tarver I.
