    never saw this before, both seemed or atleast wanted it to seem as though they had alot of interest in fighting

    Good to see each other give props like that, they seemed to be on the same wavelength

    The "60/40 I whoop that ass" is still one of the all time greats...

    I really would like it if they could become friends again and look back on their careers respecting one another

    They probably are. Both men know this is a business. Shame boxing isn't like that any more.

    I certainly hope so. Today, boxers are more interested of showing how baddass they are toward each other than be like those two...

    "sound like two carrots that dont know what the hell they talkin' about to me."

    "you damnnn right."

    did he say carrots are characters?

    that was some vintage stuff. too bad they never made that fight. jones was one fo the most flambouyant and articulate persons back in the day.

    except for the recent haye fight, i think rjj is the best color commentator right now in both mma and boxing.

    "he's(williams) fighting like a midget."

    ****ing classic. calling a person(lara) 5'8" a midget when he only stands 5'10".

    OP was excellent! Ever since watching Roy, Bhop, n Toney, I've understood what it means to be a boxer. Boxing for life.

    Hopkins ducked Roy, plain and simple I lost alot a respect for hopkins at that point.
