Comments Thread For: Roy Jones: I'm Not Going To Retire, My Next Fight is in Talks

Welp......

[Scary]

Why you do this to us. We all love you Roy, HBO got your back.

[ShoulderRoll]

Did Roy take care of his money or is he broke?

[Combat Talk Radio]

Maybe he'll retire after his 20th brutal knockout loss.

Fixed that for you.

[RSBonos]

He can beat D level fighters until the end of time.

[N!Ck F.]

He's obviously broke! That's why he is still fighting at almost 50 years old.

Realistically he can’t be counting on fighting bums in small venues to get him out of possible financial ruin. After all deductions/expenses (tax,promoter,manager,trainer,cutman,travel,food, etc) he’s making NOTHING. I think it’s his pride. I’m pretty certain his commentator job at hbo pays more than these odd fights in front of a few thousand people (if that many) are.

Someone needs to put a stop to this; before he gets killed.

He ducked The Celtic Warrior Steve Collins after verbally agreeing. Still wants to fight then he should look no further. Steve would take it.

He can't step away because this sport is his life and career. It's hard to give it up with you live and breathed it your entire life.


Plus, once you stop you want to jump right back in. You miss the fighting, the thrill it brings, the limelight, etc..

Nah, he's got money issues.
