If RJJ had the boxing ability of hopkins he could be champ again no problem, even at this age.

Hopkins still has a good chin though. Roy's chin was taken down a couple notches after losing the muscle and of course the subsequent KOs that occured also as a result of losing the muscle.

Roy could not adapt and use Hopkins' style at age 37 anymore than Hops could use Roy's style.

Im not saying he could adapt to Hopkins' style, far too late for that. All im saying is that if he did master his style at this age(which is completely impossible) he would be the champ.

If this is true he should have beat him instead of worrying about who got the credit and just got the win.

At a press conference this weekend at the Peabody Hotel in Memphis to hype Roy Jones vs Prince Amaju on July 29th, Jones suprised the media by showing up. Although Jones was 45 minutes late, he is famous for not showing up at all for press conferences. Roy Jones Jr made a startling revelation on why he lost the third fight against Antonio Tarver. Jones Jr blames his father for that loss, saying he made a conscience decision to loss. He made that choice in the fifth round of the fight. Jones says that is when he decided that he wasn't going to win the fight.

Jones Jr is quoted by Tim Smith of the New York Daily at the conference as saying: "If I had won the fight my father would have gotten all the glory and he didn't deserve it. If I had knocked out Tarver they would have said it was because of him. My father don't deserve this. Where were you the last 12 years? He's a sharp guy. Having him was more bad than good. He's a good boxing guy. He taught me. But he's not good for me.''"

in resonse to RJJ"***** please"
