    It wouldn't be remotely competitive. Dasilva would be humiliated.

    So Silva wants to prove how good of a boxer he is by fighting old shot Jones Jr.

    This is like someone's grandfather just assuming that Michael Jordan is still kicking ass for the Bulls. Way to show you know jack **** about boxing, Andy.

    As much as I like to see Roy get knocked the **** out, this is a million times worse than Ward wanting to fight old man Calzaghe.

    Maybe next Cain Velasquez will call out Holyfield.

    If Jones can make some cash, he should go for it. This will the 1st time he can look devastating in 10 years.

    Continuing to call out the shopworn and faded Jones Jr is fairly lame. Call out somebody who is in their prime.

    I dunno, MMA would take a big hit if the sport's best striker get beaten by a past it legend.

    And why don't he just say that he is afraid of losing to JJ at 205?

    And why doesn't he challenge someone somewhere near their prime? That's what pisses me off; at least Toney had the balls to fight Couture at his own sport when he still had a pulse!

    Not that I wouldn't be killed by either one of them but if I had to get in the ring with one or the other, I'd pick Roy too.

    What a joke. If I had to fight Chris Weidman next I would also probably wanna try out another sport.
