[boski]

Jones wins this fight easily. Not even remotely close.

i'll bet you said before he fought glenn johnson too

I give Peter a better chance at beating Roy than I give Mora at beating Quartay or Taylor like was talked about.

didn't roy say his next fight was going to be a big name....calzaghe,johnson,tarver,hopkins.....what is this? manfredo jr, is good but not an elite fighter as roy has said he would face....just like someone said above....oh how the mighty have fallen?

[UntouchableM2]

Roy would take this by TKO Rd.9

Actually he said he need a couple more fights and then he'd be ready for the big fight. To paraphrase, he's getting ready for the last big fight of his career by fighting lesser, tune-up opponents.

[Bonafide]

another nameless victim for Roy.

Pls dont tell me that Peter Manfredo is an elite fighter because of the CONTENDER.

HOWEVER...I wont count Manfredo out. This is a done ROY were dealing with.

[ferocity]

Manfredo would just need to touch that chin, plus Roy moving down to super middleweight puts him at a disadvantage.

[The Scientist]

Good for Roy, he's not being overly confident and ambitious. Taking on 'lesser' fighters for now is a smart move; taking it fight by fight.

Oh no, another $20 PPV?
