    NO reason why this fight should happen. None. But as a boxing fan, if it DOES happen...I'll watch. I wouldn't buy it, or even go to a sports bar to watch it, but I'd watch it on YouTube or something.

    Zab lost to Baldo, but he didn't get KTFO in one round either.
     
  3. :good

    Finally a poster with brains around here who knows what a High Quality fight is these days. I agree that Jones should take less money to make up for what his loss cost this fight in terms of marketability. But it's been done before and I think B-HOP should take this fight and the loss he takes with it.

    Judah lost a close decision. He was still young and thought to be in his prime and was one fight removed from being the WBC WBA IBF Welterweight Champion of the world........ Jones got KO'd in one round and has been shot to **** for 6 years now.

    Not really the same.

    I'm sorry, once again, but did you just say Roy Jones has been fighting the same level of fighters? Since 2006, this is who Roy has fought: Prince Badi Ajamu (who?), Anthony Hanshaw (who?), an overweight/washed up Felix Trinidad, been handily defeated by Joe Calzaghe, Omar Sheika (who?) and Jeff Lacy who hasn't been regarded as hardly anything since he got spanked by Calzaghe in 2005, and had since then nearly lost to a bum on ESPN2 and was beaten by Jermain Taylor.

    This is who Hopkins has fought: Antonio Tarver, who perhaps was drained but was the LINEAL Light Heavyweight Champion. Winky Wright, who was overweight, but was still Winky Wright. Joe Calzaghe, whom he made a hell of a lot closer fight with than Jones, and Kelly Pavlik, who was young, the recognized Middleweight champion, and was thought by many if not MOST to be able to beat Hopkins.

    Look man, you can make excuses for either way you want to go, but we're splitting hairs here. Hopkins' resume the past three years trounces Roy's, plain and simple, and if you can't see that, get your head out of your ass and see the light.

    If I was a real RJJ fan I would see this? No, a real fan doesn't sit by and watch a legend get knocked out for a THIRD TIME at 40 years old, clearly past his best due to lack of reflexes and athleticism he once had, and say he should fight a man that has shown capabilities higher than his the past three years. A real fan wants to remember the titan he was, not the mortal he's become. A real fan doesn't want to see their fighter get hurt.

    I shall test that.


    Dr. Iron Fist, do you think Vitali Klitscko is a top 25 all-time heavyweight Champion? And what number do you have him at?

    Thanks :D
     
  13. :huh

    For what, being right about what Im saying? Hopkins should still take that fight and Roy Jones will outclass him as he's a better ATG fighter, its just a fact :deal
