    Well, since he can't possibly lose to Jeff Lacy, this should be a nice seller down under.

    They still should give Green someone halfway decent if he agrees. Silivo Branco or Dallas Vargas? Anything tougher might have a serious chance of spoiling another RJJ payday. Nobody thinks he's taking this fight because he's looking for a serious challenge, right?

    Not sure how valid the source is.

    I've always assumed the Roy Jones talk from Green is pure fabrication on his teams part, just trying to generate some hype off of his name.

    Personally i would be surprised if it happened.

    :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

    Do any of you nuthuggers seriously believe Roy is going to travel to Australia for a fight?

    If you do I have some Prime beach front property in Montana to sell you.

    Sounds like Roy is going the way of a bloated over the hill Elvis .

    Fighters will continue to fight as long as their name sells tickets......It's why its so hard for all time greats to retire at the top of their glory....They start thinking of retiring and then someone says- hey, u could make another $10 million......

    Has anybody ever signed to fight a fighter before he even beats the guy in front of him? I don't recall this ever happening.
