    Ignore the title. It has nothing to do with Mayweather.Talks about the Donaire fight mostly.

    Starts at 1:36

    Noo Roy!
    His last fight with Lebedev is the first time his body has looked soft, that's worrying.
    He can only fight about 30 seconds of every round in the middle of the ring, before he needs the ropes at his back, this will keep leading to brutal knock outs.

    There isn't a single title holder he can beat, I have no interest in Tarver/Jones 4, or Toney/Jones 2.

    I wouldn't mind seeing Toney/Jones 2..if not just for the pre-fight talk.

    Jones skipped over Cruiser in 2003, when he had a chance.

    Now he has no shot against the top 10 CWs.

    If Toney beats Lebedev, then Toney/Jones 2 for the WBA paper strap would be a given.

    I'm fed up of Roy, I wanted him out of the game years ago, but it's up to him. How many more KO's do you need to sustain just to make a bit of cash? You are better than this Roy, retire now and contribute to boxing in another way.

    Sounds Roy's seen Toney and Tarver kicking around the weight.

    Toney looks a more live fighter nowadays than Roy.

    I have seen Roy say he diggs the fame and mj like attention he gets abroad when fight a lebedev or green for example and that is why he fights on, he told this to lampley after getting ko'd by Lebedev, if it is like that then he is a selfish ******* for letting all the fans and his family worry about his health like that.
    If it is financial reasons that are the causeof him fighting then its very sad and he should stick to bums in exhibitions not top level at this point.
