Really, what is Jones thinking?

      Friend we're all not sure how this fight will come out or who will win. But what is Roy Jones thinking?

      The guy is simply very desperate. a last hurrah.

              Joe slaps...he doesn't punch. Jones, rightfully or not, has no fear of Joe's power.

                it will be interesting to see how much joe clinches in this fight. his hands should be moving a little more vs jones, than vs lacy, ...id assume he'd be clinching less vs roy. Hopefully both fighters arrive in excellent condition, it could be a barn burner if roy can take joe's best shot, which he probably can. Just hopefully it doesn't land on Roy's chin early.

                    It has nothing to do with money. Do you people realize how rich Roy already is?

                    This fight is about ego and the limelight. Roy wants VISIBILITY again, not money.

                    Roy didn't train hard at all for Johnson. Still, I agree he is not likely to beat Joe. But I can hope.

                      Roy fought scared of southpaw Eric Harding who is not a big hitter at all-he will not want to taste Joe who is being hugely underrated on this board in terms of punching power.

                      Some of you folks act like Jones is just going to go in there and go for it...dont you guys realize if he was ever going to do that it was against the lazy Antonio Tarver? Roy gave up in that fight against a guy who put almost no pressure on him...he ****ing gave up!

                      If Roy is to beat Joe he will have to fight at a pace that he has never I repeat never fought at before in his professional career.

                      Talk all you want Roy Jones has no intentions of signing on the dotted line, this just keeps his name out there a bit longer thats all.

                      Wake up you dummy's just like Tyson before him Roy is all thru-dont make the mistake of not picking up on it until 2007...wake the **** up!
