    As a full fledged heavyweight. No VADA might be interesting.

    People shouldn't write off Jones as a joke. He had a size and roid advantage over Lebedev, but Lebedev is one hell of a good fighter, and he won.

    Shannon Briggs who seems like he will fight anyone seemed to want no part of Jones...

    Any way he is fighting 10-2-2 Ytalo Perea of Ecuador who was a pretty good amateur. He be De La Cruz once, he also beat Breazeale and Simon Keane and won the Pan Am games but lost to Camarelle in the olympics.

    He's a little undersized for a heavyweight, but should be a great scrap.

    Oh yeah, Jones is FORTY-FIVE YEARS OLD.

    BTW, it looks like Guillermo read the scouting report on Kovey...

    I still believe his fight against Lebedev is one of the greatest modern examples of a fight where one of the combatants has a seemingly truly iron chin.

    Both, really. I can't believe they each got back in the ring after that.

    It really seemed like a mutual career ender at the time. Brutal, brutal fight.
