    Because he's Roy Jones Junior.

    It's sad but that's the way it goes.

    Interesting to note how he says he's back with his dad and rejuvenated. The last time he bought his dad back into the fold was in the build up to the third tarver fight and even then it was uneasy.

    Maybe he's back with his dad because every decent trainer doesn't want to work with the shell of an ATG.

    I wish Roy would hang them up he has nothing to prove to anyone in boxing. But as long he passes his medicals no one has the right to stop him.

    As likable as Woods is, watching him beat a shell of Roy Jones will just **** me off. Woods should chase a rematch with Tarver.

    He won't come over here, Woods last fight was in Jersey and without live TV coverage ffs.

    Woods has already won an eliminator the other week and no-one in US would want this after performance v Tarver and Jones won't come here so it ain't going to happen.

    Surely Setanta would pick this up? Im guessing Sheffield Arena if it did?

    It already did Clinton was humiliated. Someone needs to contact Jones shrink and inform him that he cant do this anymore. I dont know whats wrong with this guy but it hurts to see him do this to himself for no reason at all.

    Woods would probably take the fight as Jones still generates money.I dont know who would win,i just wish Roy would retire.

    Yes Jeff I would love this fight to happen. Any chance of seeing any version of RJJ fighting is a great delight and Woods proved in his last fight he has a little left in the tank so why not get himself a great payday and a shot a great name on his record. Having OAP's on your record seems to impress people nowdays. I doubt it will take place in Blighty but if it does I am sure it could be a huge event, especially in Sheffield.

    The real version of Roy Jones destroyed and outclassed Woods. If Woods were to beat the current version of Roy, what would that mean or prove to anyone? Not a thing. As much as I like Roy, he is sounding more deluded all the time, he should just retire, reading that just makes me think that he still believes he has 'it' - which is a dangerous thing for a shot to **** fighter to think he has. As for Woods, he was nothing special in his prime, and he is well past it now, but I suppose the best thing for him would be to chase a rematch with Tarver.
    Although, I would LOVE to see RJJ come to England.

    Nah Calzaghe bummed himself to a payday against an awful RJJ so I really do not mind Woods doing the same. Woods had the bottle to fight a prime RJJ while JC gets appluaded for fighting a **** one knowing that he would have been stopped by halfway against a near prime Jones.

    I was about to agree that Woods would UD him now but Woods should have beaten Tarver and collapsed mentally , so I dunno , I really Like Clinton but he blows hot and cold and after the pasting Jones gave him the first time........................who knows , horrible fight tho , two guys who should be retired !

    Let me try to put a different spin on this.

    If RJJ catches Woods with the same punch (forearm) that he caught Calzaghe with, again in the first round what happens?

    Woods doesn't even go down? Is that the right answer?
