Have you ever seen a fighter looking as 'shot' as the current Roy Jones?

    I don't think i've ever seen a boxer look so out of place in a boxing ring then Roy Jones, I mean Evander Holyfield is shot but he doesn't look like he's going to fall over without taking a punch when he's in the ring but the Jones of last night was having trouble standing up strait and this was before he got knocked down :blood

    Nuthugger, Jones has no Chin. None. Never did. He is a Glass Jawed Fraud. Fact.

    Danny Williams. There was a noticable decline the second time he beat McDermott.

    The Roy Jones story has become a sad one and I don't think it will end well. He looked dazed and confused after getting knocked down by what hardly appeared to be a big punch. He looked terrible.

    Toney vs Lebedev was fairly painful to watch, some of McCalls fights are similarly bad

    Bowe's last fight was horrendous.

    How do these guys keep getting licensed?

    I think the fact Jones never retired and didn't take many long breaks is the reason you can see his steady decline over the years more clearly then some other boxers.

    Ali actually had more balance when he fought Holmes, than Jones did last night.

    Jones is somewhere between that point, and the atrocity that was Ali while fighting Berbick.

    Shane Mosley also lost the ability to pull the trigger, but he still had decent legs and a solid chin. You didn't fear for his health everytime he took a shot.

    I mean considering how mind blowingly fantastic he once was, I don't think I have.

    However we sadly see shot to absolute **** fighters all the time, mostly for their "name". Big Time McCline in just the fight before Roy's (In Big Time DeCline). And Nate's ass out there too. I almost wondered at one point what was up with the Ancient Americans on that card :p
